What's the story? Miller obviously took "stand on your head" too literally, but what else? Is it particular players or just bad everything?

Imagine what will happen in California.

Miller gets laid.

Sestito would have easily have stopped like 3 of their goals and scored 4 himself. Resting him for the playoffs is too risky. This team needs it's leader.

He will be back next game. Vey will be in the press box.

Just a bizarre game with some strange goals, not to mention we don't have the speed or skill to match this rising young team!!!

Shots are actually about even I believe. Just Oiler-like giveaways and defensive coverage. Mediocre goaltending as well.

Not impressed with Vey thus far.

We can only hope.

Same. I hope he's not another AHL-star who's game just flat out doesn't translate into the NHL. Sill early though, but he looks very tweener-like so far.

That second line might as well be young kids, at least they'd have an excuse

It's a bit early but ok.

You're forgetting that we haven't played the St. Louis, Chicago, California or Pittsburgs of the league yet, I have a feeling some of those games will make this look like a narrow win for the stars.

Was being sarcastic. I got jumped on the other night for calling out most of our team for having a lack of quality but, even in that vein, I still expected better than what I've seen tonight.

I can't imagine those teams would hurt us any worse, but there may be a few more of these results to come.

Hey.... you know... I am kind of glad this happened. Sure we can beat up on the little sisters of the league like Edmonton and Calgary but what we really needed was a test against a super juggernaunt. ............like Dallas. *sigh*

So when does Trevor walk into Aquilini's office and say, "You know it's a re-build, right?"

Now Dallas is an example of a team that rebuilt/retooled properly. Went out and got:

Hemsky
Spezza
Seguin

That's a skilled group. Good for them.

Man they got lucky to land that guy, not often someone that young and talented is available. Also got a great deal for Spezza and Hemsky was a solid signing. Drafting that Benn guy also helped.

Now repeatedly throwing my sweater (not jersey you American broadcasters) against my Tv. Much cheaper this way and I can recycle it over and over.

What did they rebuild from exactly? Their 1999 Cup winning team?

I like what Jim Nill has done, he seems to have no problem pulling the trigger on good opportunities

Yep, Jordie Benn is a game-changer

Jamie's pretty overrated though.

This team completely revived its fortunes after Jim Nill joined. Good GMs go a long way.

I guess when Nill took over, they weren't considered to be a team on the rise at that point.
