Mahomes is playing. There’s no chance he isn’t

“Patrick passed all of his tests last night. He didn’t actually hit his head, there was a nerve in his neck that got tweaked that made him out of it. He’s getting testing done on his neck/nerve today but did clear all tests last night.”

Really? Imagine that.

Now, if dumbo would scrub his circa 1990 hockey concepts

Skinner - Eichel - Cozens
Hall - Staal - Sam
Olofsso - Eakin - Asplund
Reider - Lazar - Okposo

Dahlin - Miller
McCabe - Joker
Montour - Risto (because we have to, the faster they trade these guys the better)

I think his foot will be more of an issue. He scrambled after he jammed his toe. It was really awkward to watch him run on his heels.


And the weird part about the mahomes hit is that his head didn’t really slam on the turf or anything. But he came up dazed.

I'm mildly surprised no one claimed Aaron Dell...like Devils, even Sabres.
It's not like he is the 2nd coming, but he has shown decent backup performance.
If the Sabres waived Hutton and sent him somewhere...taxi, Roxhester...they could have had Dell for virtually free Cap wise.

Switch Cozens and Hall.

This team hasn’t controlled flow and doesn’t push the pace on an aging team like Washington on back to back nights. I think your lines will work after they get a few dominating shifts/periods/games with Hall Eichel Skinner

Well when a place opens there doors for free, and doesn't charge any money to come and watch, atleast you could clean up a bit, it's not like they are making a lot of money if any after paying staff and security especially when they have to pay more people to clean up.

You’re not wrong
But drunk fans celebrating will do what drink fans celebrating do
I agree it would be nice for them not to leave it a disaster area
I’m sure the drive in knew they’d have some clean up to do though

Agreed with toe potentially being a bigger issue.

Lol to your comment on the "concussion", priceless ... NOT taking a shot at you..some back reading would explain better.

The Devils had priority as it was based on last year's standings, from what I read.

Hall/Eichel/Skunk
Oloffson/Hall/Cozens

Skimmer still getting farked big time on 4th line
I’d move Oloffson to 3rd, Skinner to second

#Eagles should be interested in #Bills OC Brian Daboll. Helped develop Josh Allen, won 5 Super Bowls in New England & began career there as defensive assistant. I'm told Daboll's ties to #Texans (Caserio/Easterby) & #Chargers (Telesco) make Philly longshot but Eagles have to try.

Just rewatched the second game again. Eichel out of shape I think. I don’t believe he trained like the MacKinnons and McDavid’s of the league did

Normally, you want the best players on the top line. One of our best players is on the 4th line and it makes no sense. I have yet to comment on Ralph since he was hired, and I'm breaking my silence today. Skinner on the 4th line is basically ridiculous. Ralph has made us look like idiots to the rest of the league. I'm not calling for the firing of Ralph, but he really needs to stop the baseless nonsense with Skinner. It's like putting Ovechkin on the 4th line.
