guys who act like jerks to the media are almost universally liked by their teammates who may want to act the same way.
From what I know about team dynamics, he may more or less have been elected or otherwise empowered into that roll.

Not only are they do they have that low of a shooting percentage, they also missed the net on shots about 1000 times yesterday which aren't even reflected in the low shooting percentage.

I know I sound crazy but I actually believe that if we hit an arizona player like that last night it would have been a 5 minute boarding penalty

Plus a phone hearing with the DOPS that inevitably culminates in a 2 game suspension.

And also that goal they scored on us the ref said no goaltender interference, if it was us scoring that goal, it would've been called back with clear goaltender interference.

Ha! well the joke is on the league last night, the Flames purposely didn't score any goals so the league didn't have the satisfaction of calling it back! Take that NHL!

I disagree. Those are the hits I can't stand the most. Even before Bennett turned he was still aiming for the numbers, Bennett turning just resulted in him getting hit the left side of his back instead of the right side

Those 27,000 km of travel in february have affected them more than we think. Not only the travel but also dealing with 3 time zones.
Good thing is that they will spend most of the games remaining at home and when the playoffs start, both teams technically travel the same amount after game one!
I would trade a 17 game losing streak (with a few ot losses) with a 17 game win streak!

Guys, the team is sucking balls right now.
They went on a slump, then won 7 games, are on a slump....lets see how it shakes up.
I think that Tkachuks play in the last 2 games may wake the team up.
Sunday could be the deciding game for this team, how they finish this season.
I really hope they come out swinging and blow Vegas away.

Welcome back Dino7c. Just wanted to say hello and post something during an off day, since I apparently only post immediately after an L.

Probably not. Game starts at 930 here, will end at midnight. If they win I'll sleep like a baby. If they lose and look lifeless I'll need to vent before I go to sleep.
