You should have to suffer in real time with the rest of us. PM me and I will buy you Sportsnet.

Why doesn’t he just do that like... more? Or something?
He’d get way more consistent offence if he did that more.

He has been doing that all year. He is our good forward this year.

Johnny has Iggyitis. Needs someone to completely piss him off before he does anything.

Gaudreau - Monahan - Dube

Load up the top 6 when you need a goal late in the third.

Nope, we will play Nordstrom on the first line instead.
Did you post this before or after we did exactly that?

I just caught myself thinking “throw Rinaldo in the lineup”. I can’t tell if that’s an overreaction or a legitimate thought.

I say I like leivo and he comes up with two give always in his own zone. At least he stayed on the walk and got the puck out but sheesh.

A team of glorified wingers, is it really surprising? Even our 1C and 2C would be wingers on a team with cup caliber 1C and 2C
