I am surprised he is back at all
- VANTEL

Might as well get him to play some sort of a role.

Nevermind the 4th line is back with Sestito on it with Booth back on the 2nd.

I still can't believe Kyle Clifford was a Gillis target for Hodgson. Not that Kassian has been way better, but Clifford doesn't even show the flashes of top 6 talent/skill.

Cam "we've had our eye on him for a while" Barker. Nuff said.

I have no Idea why Carol never participates in our conversation. Maybe she figures if anything intelligent is going to be said it will be in the first 10 posts and it goes all downhill after that.

you were saying

Costly non call there.

Hopefully the refs give that one back at some point.

Stanton really shouldn't pinch on a 4th line shift though.

Why not? Sestito and Welsh are two of our hottest goal scorers over the last 10 games

Agree on that call but I hate it when refs are giving make up calls. It cheapens th league to no end.

It never fails, go read the girl a bedtime story and it's 1-0 by the time I get back.

In a perfect world they wouldn't have to.

But if they're not going to do their job properly, they better damn well make up for it going the other way.

Two wrongs do make a right, sometimes.

Tell her she's Los enough to read her own books

The lineup I would have gone with tonight:


Sedin - Sedin - Kassian(Kings typically shut down the Twins with Burrows, tell Kassian to play like a man against LA for once)

Higgins - Santorelli- Burrows(thought this line has some good chemistry)

Booth - Kesler - Hansen(play against the Kings top line, Kesler still gets minutes on top PP/PK)

Archibald - Richardson - Weise/Sestito(I like Archibald, Richardson is a 4th line center)



Hamhuis - Bieksa(it's worked in the past)
Edler - Tanev(Edler plays well with him)
Stanton - Garrison(Garrison still gets his minutes on PP/PK)

You should do what most of us hockey dads do. Let your kids grow up illiterate grab a beer and watch the game

To be honest Nucker the Kings may well be the NHL team we match-up against the worse. Regardless of the lines we throw out there.

Give them a full glass of wine at dinner and they are usually sleeping game time.
