Last time they broke up the top line it was Toffoli that got the nod. It's been a while since we have seen Mangiapane with that combo, and I'm curious if a more seasoned Eat Bread could maintain near the dominance that we have become accustomed to. If he can, the shift of talent on lines two and three look really dangerous.

What I love about Darryls philosophy is he deals in facts.
No luck
No MOJO
No.BULL.

Call it what it is. If it looks and walks like a duck it's not a penguin....its a duck.....and what do we do with ducks......we shoot them .
Simple stuff.
The media has been corrected allot lately and I'm thinking that they should take more notes or something....Darryl should joke that there's a quiz after every media scrum just so he knows they were paying attention ....just like in practice ya just have to do it right once and move on.

He sounds a little frustrated though....talking about having to blend lines and use multiple goalies.....shouldn't have to do that to win....but he did and it worked and that's why its great he back.
Maybe we'll all be smarter in the end....just had to be Sutterized!!

Wills is so careful with his words at all times, I can totally imagine him in a mirror at home reciting his questions hes going to ask before asking them.


We are blessed to have Daryl, hopefully he can be coach here for a long long time.

Toffoli got the nod because Darryl thought he'd gone cold, as opposed to putting Mangiapane there because it's more dangerous.

And that is why we don’t want them in the playoffs unless Vegas gets into the first wildcard spot to wreak havoc in the central and Colorado.

Imagine if we got back a 100% healthy and fresh Monahan who played like how he did the 1st 4 years of his career.

It would be the biggest "deadline deal" of next year!

So I'm supposed to be less stoked? Gio has been gone almost a whole season and you sure won't shut up about him.
