Wilson????

I can't see the Canucks or Wings doing business with them. No way either of these three teams will be making trades with each other and you can add Chicago in there as well.

Is it possible that we see actually hockey trades instead of the usual buying/selling this year?

CHL top prospects game was just in Kelowna so I'm guessing they decided they might as well stay in town and watch.

So I guess when AV's intimidated by a team, his gameplan is to play our worst player on every line to start every shift because he's 5 or 6 out of every 100 faceoffs better than our good players...

Detroit DOMINATED the start of that period because whether we won or lost the faceoff, the next 20-30 seconds of every shift were spent figuring out how to get that 3rd linemate on the ice... Malhotra just skated around contributing nothing.

Oh yeah... and he was 2/5 in faceoffs and a -1. Good thing we disrupted every line to get him out there!

With Nonis here, you know they are looking at Schneider.

Loving how Booth is playing lately, that was a great drive to the net on Kesler's goal.

Honestly, what is it with our fourth line thinking they are the Sedins or something and are put on the ice to score.....

I'm impressed with the way Booth has been using his size and strength and not just his speed. I was hopig we just didnt get a bigger Raymond.

Lots of suits in the house. Leafs assistant GM Nonis, Caps GM McPhee, Sharks GM Wilson and more scouts than usual as trade deadline nears.

I hope they are scouting Luongo.

This is the exact gameplan AV implemented when Malhotra returned VS the Bruins in the SCF... Disrupt every line to have him out there for every faceoff, and then wonder why the offense couldn't get anything going.

Getting outclassed by a mile tonight. Lu is at least keeping it close but you know it's bad when you have 1 out of 4 lines creating anything. Sedins look like garbage so far

Maybe all the nice things Babcock said about us the past 2 days is reverse psychology, we aren't used to being respected!
