Apparently speaking the truth is a bad thing. Yep we've played only 5 games.
Looking at the next 7 games we could conceivably be sitting at 3-8-1 by February 15th.
Only two of the next seven are easy and thats columbus and detroit.
Oh wait Colorado was supposed to be 2 gimme points as everybody on Sportsnet was saying. It's losing games like this which cost you those points that get you into the playoffs. You shouldn't find ways to lose against teams where their entire first line is injured or not playing.
I will admit the two czechs have been a damn good surprise. Was a lot of fun watching them on the ice.
I just don't get how we can be so bloody bad. When you look at our team on paper it looks fairly solid through the entire line up.
I'm really hoping they start Irving against Chicago and he puts up an amazing performance. Hopefully Hartley can give him a chance to show that he can shine at this level.
Thus far Kipper has been very mediocore.
