I am. This is a stretch even for him.

34 games left is a lot of time, but if we lose tonight and our playoff spot comes down to a two-or-less point margin, I'm going to blow my stack.

Well how about this. Remember last year when we missed home ice by a point and how many points were coughed up by stupid coaching decisions? Everyone was telling me relax, it was like nobody realized how important every (frank)ing point is until we lost in game 7 against the Caps. Now there's even more on the line.

He did the same stupid shat last year or the year before I forget. I think it might have been after the Olympics when they were off for two weeks and he started I think Poulin who had been playing in the minors

it's still not a shock that he'll make stupid lineup decisions as if he somehow knows more than anyone else.

I can't remember ever seeing a team with two quality goaltenders having both sit for an ahl goaltender that was claimed off waivers during a playoff race. But surprised? Not really.

I was with you on that and pissed off watching him continually sit players we needed during the last two weeks as though we'd already clinched a playoff spot and home ice.

Neither am I. This is the man that declared Marty Reasoner a "playoff warrior" after a 1 goal regular season. Reasoner went on to be directly responsible for 4 of the 5 goals against in that game one.

It wasn't just "resting" players it was giving Strait over 20 mins a night and having him be directly responsible for games lost among many other mind numbingly, ridiculously stupid line up decisions that losses were the direct result of. Like I said, even if Berube comes in and plays lights out this is a stupid coaching decision.

Berube gets a game and yet Pulock has not gotten a game yet?

This makes no Phucking sense at all unless Halak Bruised his Vagina reaching for the milk in the Fridge and Crappy just noticed that Greiss has a German accent not a New England accent. WTF

If Berube gets shelled wait for the fabricated injury.

It's times like these I wish I had twitter. Hopefully Chiefs or Vukota gives us updates on the lunacy that has to be going on with Staple right now

It's a dumb move even if he plays great. You need to play your proven players at this point. Isles are not 20 points up. It sends A lousy message.

Nothing exciting going on. Just a bunch of confused people replying to Staples tweet.

Maybe we're trying to see if Berube can play, so we can trade Greiss? idk man.

The only way this makes any sense is if both Greiss and Halak died over the allstar break.

No, the sad thing is I actually believe Capuano. I think he legitimately thinks that because Berube played while Halak/Greiss had off, that he is the best choice to play tonight.

Yeah I'm not on there either.
Where is any logic to this decision? Berube has played all week and our regular goalies have had off?
You can bet your ass we will see Holtby in the caps net.
The (frank)ing guys on the team must be like WTF is going on?

Holtby and Ovechkin are both sitting out tonight's game. You can bet Holtby will be in net Thursday. Ovechkin will be well rested. You'd think they'd want to start Halak tonight to put their best foot forward in an effort to get 2pts tonight before an extremely difficult game on Thursday.

They have to be thinking this every (frank)ing day. Imagine what his meetings are like? Practices? Different line combos in practice?
