Man... a lot to cover in this thread.
Roger Millions is way too dramatic on twitter and runs to tweet something way too quickly. He complains about soap opera but it's one he's effectively started. I like Roger, but he's prone to not vetting things before he reports it. Done it one too many times.
As for Sven and his play.. I thought he had a very strong game vs the Oilers. Not just a strong game for him but a strong game as an NHL player. He was stronger on the boards, hitting guys on the forecheck and was first back on the defensive side of the game many times. Hartley actually gave him and Monahan top powerplay time, almost 3 minutes each. The comment was a bit out of line, innocent but certainly cutting, but I think Sven has hopefully turned a corner.
Becoming an NHL player is never a straight upwards line, going to be many ups and many downs.
