I agree with you on the whole, but you're forgetting one thing: Emmerton is a center.

It'd make for an interesting season, I'll give you that.

I'm hearing Bettman cited foul language as the reason for the fine. True? False?

So, here's what I'm thinking. If WWF-esque "headslamming" is more or less ok, why not consider working it into our game? I mean, we may not be very physical, and we may tend to shy away from the rough stuff along the boards and in the corners - but that's sort of the point, really. It doesn't take an especially big frame, or GRIT!, or balls of steel, or fighting prowess, etc. to "headslam" a guy. So, hey: this could be The Great Equalizer for us with respect to hard-nosed physicality - and we don't have to waste a roster spot on an enforcer-type! :rockstar:

This ridiculous slew of injuries - they must be playing under the influence.

This is actually legitimately hilarious.

I'm pretty sure this team has a drinking problem.

If Hank were Crosby, Weber would be suspended for the remainder of the Preds' run. But, as it is, I'll be amazed if he gets even one game.

Oh man.

Embarrassing. We deserve to lose.

This is HUGE.

G-Gary?!

And, barring a minor miracle, there's the game. Yeah, I hope you're pissed, Hank. Pathetic.

We're boosting Rinne's confidence. That's what we're doing right now.

Hurray for low-percentage shots.

So arse-rammingly unlucky.

Hank, what are you doing?

PULL. THE. TRIGGER. FASTER.

Oh, we shoot it. The shots are just terrible is all.

Flyers've tied it up. Some good news.

Shameful and shameless. It's legitimately insane.

PP to start the 3rd.

Does this team ever one-time shots anymore?

Wondering the same thing. We've seen all of, what, 4 mins. of even-strength action?
