Fast forward to three games in...
The team has been entertaining, hard working, and is unbeaten in regulation. They have bought into the system, bonded as a team, and are possibly in better shape than any other team.
But a 4th liner, who was on the ice longer than he should have been, tried to pass through Sedin instead of chipping it up the boards.
You're fired.
