    Never mind a whole piano.. Sheahan doesn't even look like he could pull a keytar

    So glad Larkin found the back of the net! His goal (not to mention that perfect pass from Z) and AAs were awesome. It's nice to see some good looking goals keep playing the way we have the past 5 and it's going to be a fun season. LGW

    Hindsight is always 20/20.. 3rd pairing is exactly where Ericsson belongs (and has been playing well so far, imo). Let's keep our foot on the gas! Love the intensity so far this season. LGW!

    The MANtha watch.....

    The team overall was good but were up 3-0 at one point and made it a little close for comfort in the end. Mantha looked good but not great imo. He'll have better games (especially statwise obviously) but he definitely had his chances.. had a lot of shots get blocked or deflected wide but overall he looked like he was skating harder than last season when I went to see them. The monsters were doing a pretty good job of pressuring him when he had the puck but overall, I like what I saw out of him. Bert was great! He's so much fun to watch. Hits everything that moves and is solid offensively.. love it! Lighter side note: they did a thing on the big screen where they asked each player who the worst driver is on the team and everyone said bert.. then it got to bert and he wasn't sure who to say I also really like what I saw out of Russo. He's got a good shot and skates well.. hope he keeps progressing as he has been.

    10/21 GDT : at Red Wings 5, Nashville Predators 3

    Finally caught the highlights and fight haha not sure what Webers fight history is but it can't be less than Larkin's and Larkin looked damn good. also really like the high amount of shots and Tatar and Nyquists goals were great! Good to see them start to score. I'm sad I missed this one; looks like it was a really exciting game. Let's keep playing like that & LGW!

    Howard

    ah well there ya have it haha, seems they're pretty confident in their other goalies then.

    Howard

    Your point is a good one but Miller is in the last year of his contract.. he does have a high salary though (and a modified NTC) so he wouldn't get moved to LA, or probably at all, for that reason. Could see the jets moving Pavelec for a draft pick to get something for him while they can. This is assuming their other goalies have been good enough to make them comfortable moving him. Eating half his salary would make it a better pick.. that could be motivation enough.

    10/19 GDT - Red Wings 2 at Rangers 1

    I don't know, sounds like a bit much.. they should probably include Duclair too just to balance it out a little

    Sorry if this has been discussed somewhere but it doesn't really specify on their site.... anyone know what happened? http://www.generalfanager.com/ also, any suggestions of alternative sites would be greatly appreciated

    General Fanager shut down?

    agreed, general fanager was a very well put together site.. i liked it a lot. but boring games? i understand the first two (minus the first period at tampa) but did you watch last night?? it was far from boring.

    Blashill tinkering with lines after Tampa loss

    Pretty much the lines Khaaaaaan tweeted but switch Abby and Sheahan. Give that a try.... I don't think Abby is the best top 6 winger in the league by any means but I'm confused why blash thinks Sheahan belongs up there? Maybe he's seeing something in practice I'm not seeing in the games.

    10/13 GDT : at Tampa Bay Lighting 6, Red Wings 4

    This! With Miller sitting rather than Ott. What would that give us? Z-Nielsen-Tatar Abby-Larkin-Vanek Sheahan-AA-Nyquist Ott-Glendog-Helm that looks a lot better imo
