Any reason he doesn’t like him?

There is no way that liking or not liking comes into play. This is professional sports.

He doesn't think Skinner is invested enough in his system, or something like that. I'd like to see a league leader in 5x5 goals over the last few years in the top 6 but that's just me.

Eichel looks slow and uninterested. Why is he captain again?
- IceColdBeer

Because he’s the best player in the team.

He also sees the coach playing him with tage (frank)ing Thompson while Jeff Skinner is rotting in line 4

Let’s take time to say one positive thing about the team during this intermission.
I’ll start. Even with a loss we aren’t that far out of a playoff spot.

As bad as they’ve played, they’re only down two. If they play a solid 20 minutes, they can push for OT

Wouldn’t hurt to hit the net either.

Had a rush and took a slap shot that didn’t even hit the net.

Hall had a nice goal
Reider too

Let’s get Jack, Sam, Staal, Skinner & Olofsson going offensively

Allen listened intently as Romo and Fitzpatrick recounted valuable lessons from their own careers. They nodded in agreement when he brought up some of what he'd gone through in his first two NFL seasons.

- ImThatGuy


He’s also playing next to a top 5 player in the NHL. When your captain plays like he doesn’t give a poop, guess what happens to the rest of the team?

We can all be kind of upset that Tage looks lost in the O-zone and Hutton got the start (he isn't the reason we are losing). Risto and Mountour playing almost 8 minutes a period trumps all of that and it isn't close. What did Miller ever do to this organization to play bottom 6 minutes in this group?

- homiedclown


What’s Cozens’ excuse ?

He got saddled with Eakin and Reider and they have a goal 5v5.

They are outshooting the opponent 8-3 while on the ice.

Sheehan and Lazar came closer to scoring short handed then they have with Skinner on the ice tonight.

Skinner is a -1 to boot.
