GMRwings1983

Is Larkin not anyone's favorite player right now?

Rasmussen must be attending the same boxing school as Abdelkader.

If Brian Lashoff didn't exist, God would have to invent him.

Where's Witkowski at? This game is boring and out of hand. Need to send this team a message for the future. Also, let's not forget this team was trash last night. They were outshot by a wide margin and were fortunate to get the result they got.

This is getting so bad that I'm thinking I should watch Smackdown instead.

They should be fresh to start the game. Fatigue plays into effect more the later the game goes.

Kronwall must have the NHL record for most pucks deflected into one's own net. Kind of like the last few seasons?

Oh really? Is he going to be our big deadline acquisition? Did Franzen ever retire?

Why isn't Larkin wearing the C right now? Not like Zetterberg died in a tragic accident. No reason to delay the inevitable.

Poor Kovalchuk. He must have thought he was coming to LA to play with Lebron.

Filppula never could shoot.

Kocur injured his hand so often that he's probably be the first telling Mantha not to fight anymore.

Boychuk can handle himself but Abdelkader is just a joke. I'm thinking he's been the one teaching Mantha how to throw punches.

If we called up McIlrath, we'd be the Broad Street Bullies of today's sissy NHL.

Bertuzzi needs to grab Clusterf*** from the bench and pound his face. Abdelkader should take boxing lessons from Alexander Semin.

This team doesn't like leads very much.

10 game suspension. Letter from Gary Bettman.

How can we be buyers? We don't have cap space room and can only offer young prospects in exchange for established players. That would be a mistake. I'm not one of these posters who'd rather see them tank and get a high pick. I want them to try to win every game with this roster. However, I wouldn't trade any of the best prospects in order to pursue a playoff push that likely ends in a first round loss. Ride it out with the current prospects and try to dump players that are older and eating up too much cap space (Abdelkader, Nyquist, Ericsson, Nielsen, etc).

Nah. We could have had two points in the Tampa game, just couldn't execute in the OT or in the shootout. It's a crapshoot at that point. The point is not being in that situation in the first place. A multiple goal lead in the third should be safer than what they've made it look.

Great move by Larkin. Glad the chokejob in the third didn't cost them both points.

Would have been great leaving these s***heads with zero points.

Nothing is but what is not. That wouldn't matter if this team kept their feet moving and did something in the other end of the ice. Some kind of pressure or pushback is needed. They look like deer in the headlights. Besides, Toronto is not exactly the 1984 Oilers.

I don't give a damn who they're playing against. When you're up two goals in the third last game, and up three goals in the third in this one, there's no reason not to walk away with four points from both games. Total chokejob. I don't know, but Holland is definitely out of touch.

I didn't watch the first two periods (so it's my fault they're choking) but how did this inept team even have a 4-1 lead?

Who's going to be the starter when Howard gets traded like everyone is asking for.
