WTF? is Del Zotto hurt? This doesn't make sense even if we are tanking.
- mayorofangrytown

Yeah hopefully it's just a maintenance... Del Zotto has been playing fairly well.
Although at this point NO one has been playing that well. Fri game was one of the worst I've ever seen from this team.

Wait, some of you were actually surprised that Berube would combine a logical move like scratching Vinny with a WTF? one like scratching MDZ?

Irrelevant topic but I was thinking about current players that will make the HoF and here's what I got:

Definite: Jagr, Crosby, Ovechkin, Thornton, Chara, Brodeur, Iginla, St. Louis, Malkin

Probable: Datsyuk, Hossa, Lundqvist, Alfredsson, Toews

Possible: Sedins, Elias, Marleau, Lecavalier, Brad Richards, Heatley, Gonchar, Zetterberg, Spezza, E. Staal, Getzlaf, Perry, Kopitar, Bergeron, P. Kane, Luongo, Miller, Nash, Ribeiro, Weber, Keith, Kessel

Long shot: Doan, O. Jokinen, N. Backstrom, Dan Boyle, Morrow, Briere, Tanguay, Gaborik, Nabokov, Fleury, Vanek, Havlat, Timonen, Sharp

On track: Tavares, Stamkos, Doughty, Rask, Quick, Giroux, Subban, Price, Karlsson, Seguin, Parise, Suter

Others to consider for the future: Pietrangelo, Benn, Ekman-Larsson, Landeskog, MacKinnon, Hall, McDonagh, Duchene

I probably missed some guys but the main reason for this post is so I could get my thoughts down and maybe have some of you bounce your own around.

Del Zotto hasn't been very good lately. Makes sense. No player is immune.

poop! Im not sure what to believe anymore. You're either telling the truth or being honest about being a liar or lying about being a liar.
- GOA88


I'm lying about lying the truth but telling the truth about the truth when I lied about lying. Truthfully!

No way he has been worse than 85% of the rest of the team... I'm all for "no player is immune", but Del Zotto is not the right place to go with that, imo. When you still have Umberger, Amac, Coburn, Couturier, Read, LSchenn on this team??

Desharinais and Gallagher would have to do a lap around the ice before Vinny caught up to them

He hasn't been worse then anybody else. But he's not undeserving. Not many players are. In my opinion I think the forwards are far more to blame for the recent slump then the defenseman are. They have 8 defenseman. Making them earn playing time.

so the one defenseman we have that can pinch and still get back, or skate it up ice with speed, gets scratched?

this is really comical

Scratch macdonald, vinny, umberger and have read on stand by. Call up kids and play them. If we are going to lose lets at look like we have the balls to try and play.

Grossmann, Coburn and Streit have all been bad lately, too. But we know they actually are immune.
