So let's wait until they do cost us games before we make changes.

Well my car is making noises but i'm gonna wait until the engine catches fire before I take it to the mechanic.

Again, outstanding assessment. You really nailed it.

So adding Weise last night was not trying to fix things? Given them ice time in the final 2 minutes wasn't to try to show them some confidence? Everyone, including Bourque and Eller are quite aware of their suckage. The team is trying to work through it and find solutions. At this point, the solutions include Bourque and Eller.

I don't think the shots were indicative of the play though

True, last night was a good example of why people shouldn't assume corsi = possession

Eller maybe.

No problem with Weise.

Can't stand Bourque.

We still don't know the identity of the soldier that was shot near near the Unknown soldier memorium.

Too early in season to make a trade, you start sitting these guys and their value drops even more.

Best hopes are they pull out of it slightly. Remember how awful Desharnais was at start of last season?

Bourque and Eller are going on year 3 of sucking.

You're right...maybe they'll magically snap out of it...and never go back to sucking.

Eller had 30 point in 46 games 2 years ago. That's why I still have a slim hope in his case.
