drinking helps with that

Not for me it doesn't. I'll still care just as much and be just as pissed off except I wouldn't second guess taking a bat to my TV or window.

We'd easily lose 1-4 in a series against anyone in the conference. It wouldn't even be close.

Yep! NHL is a speed game now, but you still have to be able to win the tough close games and this team is not build for it.

Bro, isn't it amazing? You can pick up a veteran forward that's dirt cheap and is literally FREE to add who will help your severely injured lineup, your dead last PK, all while helping you win some faceoffs.

I guess trying to improve your team is not the Garth way. It's seriously f*ckin stupid, and as I'm writing this out my blood pressure is boiling.

This is a little insane, but the only explanation I can think of is that teams are limited to having 50 guys under contract. Garth might have had to release some guy in the minors from his contract in order to bring in Jokinen.

They would maybe rattle off a 6-5 OT victory or something when they were already down 2 or 3 games to none. I'm a big believer in that defense will win you a championship when it comes down to it.

God f*ckin forbid Garth had to release a 4th liner on your minor league team. If he ever came out and said that I would seriously figure out where he lived and smash his windshield.

I was actually at a wedding this weekend. I had a blast. Probably because I wasn't thinking about the isles. I ended up on my 6'6" friends shoulders in the middle of the dance floor ha ha.

Edit: I'm kinda curious how that wedding video will turn out.

That game got away from them quick.

Also, Toews picked the wrong year for a serious injury.

So I see. Sit down for supper and turned the game off when tied 1-1. Come back and it’s 3-1.

I take full responsibility.

If we lose the next game on top of this I'm pretty comfortable saying playoffs are out of the picture. There's too many teams in this division to compete with.

Halak is so bad. Just...so bad. This team is garbage and has only 1 or 2 NHL caliber defensemen playing right now

Where are we trading JT? It's seriously time to consider moving him.

Acquiring 2 1sts for him (along with other pieces, obviously) wouldn't be the worst thing for the franchise. 3 first round picks in 2018 and 2 picks in 2019. Let barzal take over first line center. Either use the picks or trade all 3 of them to move up to #1 and draft Dahlin.

He's honestly been doing a great job as an owner. Now it's time to buck up and fire your inadequate GM.

He hasn't been great, but he's shell shocked. He can't wait for the season to be over so he can sign with another team.

When and if ( have to say if )they are eliminated from the POs I believe he will.
