Yeah that's a good guy to compare to. A player 10 years older on his last legs and about to retire.

Exactly, coming from a guy drafted 2nd overall, who has never eclipsed the 50 point mark even when he played with Crosby, Malkin and Neal when he was monster!

Now you guys know me. I'm all for slow and steady progress. Been touting that poop for years now. But what I'm seeing now, it ain't progress. Ha! Progress? We ain't (frank)ing talking progress here.

We are standing at an edge of a cliff. An edge that is like really super unstable. And who's going to pull us back? Jim and Trevor? "Sorry, we can't help you right now we're too busy with our heads up our asses looking for a clue."

Yeah, thanks for the help you (frank)s.

Benning's an idiot. Plain and simple. And I'm not just taking about his eductation. I'm talking all-around dim. Certified dumb.

Who trades a 1st line scorer for a "?". In fact, he traded the only two roster players that found some success playing with the twins. You see, it takes a special kind of mind to divine yourself into the Sedin’s cosmic wizardry. (frank) man, it's something that you and I can't grasp! There might be only 6 people in the world that can. And we had them!

Edge crumbling.

Let me divert for a second. Here's a question. What does this franchise do on a consistent basis? Oh nothing, just trade away every single player the twins ever played well with. Klatt, Pyatt, Kesler (one of the most dominant Peepees ever), that black guy, and now Burrows and Hansen. Stick that in your conspiracy mug and drink it.

What the (frank) was I saying… Oh yeah...

As others have pointed out quite eloquently, these players have like crazy high intangibles. No need to elaborate.

So what do we do now? What does our coach do now? What do the players do now when the heart has been ripped out from this team! That's one of the team's two (sometimes three) assistants to the captain for Christ sake! I'm pretty sure that's really important even though I've never really played a professional team sport. Regardless, I'm pissed.

And now they don't have an assistant captain. When asked who gets to wear the "A" now? Dim Jim's answer (because the coach is in hospital recovering from a narcoleptic seizure) "we'll just move the "A" around and see what sticks..."

Are you (frank)ing kidding me. More of the same crap from this fascist, misogynous, right wing, dictatorship they call "management". Misdirection, confusion, and indecision is the strategy here.

I don't understand why there is such disconnect between the two leadership groups? I really feel for Willie. He's got his plan laid out to get our team into the playoffs, positions are filled, got his difference makers where they need to be. Willie's got a totally solid grasp on his roster and then WHOOSH! The carpet gets pulled from under him. No clue. No warning. Everyone was on board for the final push to the playoffs and then a 180. WTF?

Got to give poor Willie a chance. Just get us to the damn playoffs and with Willie's backcountry smarts and an amazingly balanced roster, who knows what could happen. All you haters have to do is look at LA Kings a few years back. Hell, the comparisons between our team and that team are pretty scary.

Anyway, I don't know what is going on anymore but I feel comfortable sharing my feelings of confusion and emptiness with you guys. Sometimes I feel like I'm falling. Just falling...

Well, go look up our schedule. It's horrendous. We are going to end up with not that much more than 65. And, we aren't going to pass 65 until probably the last week of the season.

It's a pretty valid point though. People were up in arms suggesting the 65 point range, I think I said 70-75.
