@Colo - tonight
@Min -wed
@Chi - fri
@Dallas - Sat
van@ - tues

next 5 games....2 wins, maybe 3 (Col, Min, Dal)
- Symba007

0-5

beating Col will be tough. last time they played Sat and flew West for a Monday game, they got drilled by the Oilers. i don't expect much tonight. Minnesota and Dallas are winnable games. Chicago is a writeoff.

they lost 3 in a row, 2 against Buffalo, they will be motivated tonight IMO

- Symba007

I wonder how many of them have had legal issues.

maybe it's to keep their salaries down for next year? they're both RFA in the offseason and the longer they're buried down there, the lower their hits next year will be.
- DoubleDown

At the start of the season I thought we wouldn't see much of them for this exact reason.

Should 1 of the 2 or both have great seasons then with them, Chucky and Gal all up for contacts it may put a lot of strain on the cap.

you would hope so. they'll need a huge performance from Price (brilliant analysis, i know)

i do expect that when the playoffs roll around, the defence will look much different.

I say they go 2-2-1, winning against Dallas and Minnesota, losing to Colorado in OT.

3 stinkers in a row and it's panic time

This.

so you mean once again they will panic in the playoffs, call up one of the youngsters and put him in a pressure packed situation without giving him a regular season to grow with the team?

Would not like to be black in the USA.

Would not like to live there being white anyway, their «police» being one of the main reason.

Yeah, they'll look very different wearing their golf attire.

That's why Beaulieu and Tinordi should play right now, at least from time to time.

Beaulieu was lost vs the Rangers.

I like that Therrien keeps sending Plek out for the shootout. I mean, who cares if he can't score in them? He's a nice guy and people like him, so it's only fair to keep sending him out. Who cares if he has a 13% success rate?

Only times he scores one on one with the goalie is a shorthanded breakaway.

Horrible in shootouts. Send PK!

Why the dog?

He did nothing to stop it, so he's culpable.
