God damnit he cannot control the puck if his life depended on it.

Been playing well but im so sick of seeing johnson coughing up costly rebounds.

He fights the puck too much for my liking. A career backup at best.

how do you guy feel knowing that gazRichard scored on you?

Ok, hopefully I'm wrong two games in a row. That's not interference.

...anybody left that actually thinks replay belongs in the NHL?

Wish it had never come in. (frank)ing joke.
How many times you guys been burned by it this year?

I doubt it makes it past this season...imagine this during the playoffs?

Im not worried about it.

Out of curiosity how is any reference i made about the oilers incorrect? Save for the last year with new management (finally, and im happy for you guys to not be stuck with that garbage anymore) and drafting the most hyped generational player maybe ever it is all right in front of us.

I actually wouldnt mind finishing low again and drafting high once more. But in 5 years if there is no improvment i would certainly hope management has exhausted every option to try.

Your reference to Darcy's mad dash to 9th was literally exactly what Lowe did 07-10.
Did Everything he could to make the dance. You couldn't be more wrong about your assertion.

As far as tanking - the oilers under tambellini tanked, but.....Meh- too much energy to exhaustively go over it
No one cares. They're bad. Hopefully that changes

Yea that looked more like Bogo pushing around pakarainen than the other way around.

I really dont think there is a fan out there who wanted it in the first place. Sadly the GMs disagree.

The past is the past. I don't get too wrapped up in it anymore. I care more about the future. Nothing we can do about it as fans anyway.

My 2 cents.

Apparently the GM's only care about what they think and not the fans. They want replay, fans hate it. They think there's no problem with scoring, others realize there is an issue.

It's really deflates the intensity of the game. It's such a joke

The man was a boss in goal...none better during that time IMO

The play was reviewed, but the Stars were celebrating... so (frank) it. Then they tried with the weak explanation after the game and then the rule change in the offseason.

I still say none better ever. I'll stipulate there were a few on par, Roy and Brodeur immediately spring to mind, but I don't think you can say any one of those guys Hasek included were better than any other.

Hopefully they make it interesting

Fair enough, thanks for correcting me. Sounds similar to when drury and briere bolted from here. There is no animosity from me. I hope it changes too because its no fun being at the bottom of the league.

Still baffles me that your old management wouldnt move some pieces to try and fix the recurring problems though.

Every week around Thursday I'm worried about my team, and then by Saturday I'm cruising to another win. I'm up 489 to 321 right now. 7 guys with more than 30, 3 with more than 40 and one with 50+.

Both teams have decent talent. I'm sure it's gonna get better.
