With 8 dmen on the roster is Hexy going to be offering a special 2 for 1 sale near the deadline?

I have to believe he is chomping at the bit to blow up the blueline. Not physical, lack of mobility, and inability to consistently generate a rush out of the defensive zone is not a good combo.

I haven't been watching a lot of games, which quite honestly has made the fall and winter a lot more relaxing.

He's played solid hockey tonight. He's skating hard, working along the boards, showing creativity with the puck. Unfortunately nothign has come of it

You mean he's not carrying the fourth line? Get out!

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeezy big fella

Ha! Yeah.

The way they're playing so far is enough to make anyone snap, though

Bring in Dan the Man!!!

Might be worth watching the Titans/ Jags game. Same amount of excitement

Players quit on berube and they still won't fire the worst coach in nhl history

Well he is playing with a defensive forward who is pretty limited when it comes to offensive creativity and a guy who...well...he uh skates pretty fast and tries real hard

Boucher > Morganti

I'm happy with the effort. I'm not ripping the result. As I said last night, if he shows a good enough effort, he'll soon have better linemates.

Wow -- that is one tragic NFL matchup

Given the quality of Thursday night games so far, this one might be the most competitive

Until Boucher does a stint on Philly sports radio and the ways of the Dark Side kick in.

Cataldi: Boosh, you seem to know a lot about the game. Ya gotta stop that. Some guy from Kensington has no idea about nuance, they care if he can fight, hit or score goals. If he can't do that he's a wussy.

Agreed. He looked good this period -- have to hope he can keep it up

Without question.

LOL at the 'Vinny wasn't that bad' segment.

Hopefully Berube sees that

You mean that putting a guy in the press box for a few games might yield positive results?

A few people in here may stroke out at that one.

Could really do w/o that pass from behind the net w/ his back turned. That's the kind of poop that must drive Bur-oob-ee crazy.

You think that roach-coach guy in the archaic, unrealistic Pennsylvania Lottery ad makes enough money to send his kid to state college?

Why is berube still coach
- Winning

Coaching for McDavid

Hopefully Berube sees that
- BiggE

He can still do stuff in the offensive zone -- I don't know who the hell you play him with because there's really no good answer, but if he plays like that a little more, then you are able to justify trying different lines and seeing what might work

Hopefully Berube sees that
- BiggE

Hopefully it continues. He's not going to get a bigger role, with more skilled linemates, unless he keeps working hard.

Did we even get a lets go flyers from Gunky?
