I don't know why this bugs me so much, but apostrophes are to be used to show the possessive (dad's car) or as a contraction (dad's mad), NOT when you are in the plural (their dads aren't going to take them for ice cream).

Now, back to your regularly scheduled blow out.

I certainly agree that Stajan hit the guy from behind... i can get the penalty. Buuuut it's gotta be consistent. The Flames never seem to get that call

You work hard to stay even and look for your chances against a better team, and your goalie decides to wander out of the net and gift the opposition a goal.

Come on.

Galiardi never scored 20 did he? Just like Comeau, when I see D Jones I can't believe that guy ever scored over 20 goals in a season.

He's been given Reinhart call up minutes (7:28)... Laughable.

This team is laughable as is the losing streak in Anaheim. There really isn't much to get excited about on this team now or in the near future. A lousy team filled with lousy players and prospects. Ughhh.

But what has he done with that 7:24? I haven't noticed him at all.

Yup, many on here are not going to be able to handle a rebuild.

+1, 56% on draws, and screened the goalie on Jones' goal

We've iced a team of barely NHLers. What else did you expect?

Stempniak had a bit too much turkey yesterday methinks.

I feel like Sven would be amazing if he was just a little bit quicker. He's always excruciatingly close to making really nice plays.

Bouma and Reinhart are going to be perennial fan favourites.

David Jones looks useless 80% of the time & then he lets loose a sweet wrister. Also wouldn't be surprised to see him credited with Smid's goal. I thought he got his stick on that shot...

Big 3rd period fellas!!

I've noticed D. Jones of late. Blocked shots, big hits, etc. Comeau would just skate around a lot. I'm not expecting D. Jones to net 20 this year. Not with this team anyways. He's on pace for 16 or so right now though, is he not?

I will take this any day knowing the process to get better has begun instead of the past years where the team kept fooling themselves into thinking they could win it all and failing miserably with no light at the end of the tunnel.
