Unfortunately it's not that uncommon in high level contracts. It kills me that Snow is making that much money, but he has no power. They likely gave him a menial job which he has to perform or he will be fired for cause and lose the rest of his money.

Whelp, we're going to learn a lot tonight. Just how much did that sub 48 hour turnaround coupled with 2150 mile trip impact the Isles?

Andrew Badd in, Brass out?

Oh jeez well I guess I’ll say the obligatory In Trotz We Trust.

Malkin had to be pretty pissed at him after that season ending news conference. It wouldn't surprise me if he told him to stay away so I don't have to look at your facking face.

Seriously?

Ladd used to be a good playoff player. 10 years ago. Maybe Trotz can hypnotize Ladd and convince him it's 2010 again.

What about MDC? I thought he played well.

Yeah I don’t get it I forgot Ladd was even on the team and I was quite happy forgetting about him. Hopefully Trotz is pushing the right buttons on this decision.

Has Ladd played at all this playoff run?

I don't think he has.

Pageau centering Ladd and Komarov. What did he do to piss off Barry?

I don't think he has.

Wish he'd played against the Flyers. That's one dude they probably could've skated with.

Maybe.

Thankfully no. Hopefully he makes me change my mind but let’s just say I’m doubtful.

Varlamov in net?

Wow Varlamov and Ladd. I’m shocked. Don’t agree with either of these decisions but I have faith in trotz so I’ll just hope he’s right.

Ladd AND Varly??

Jeeez

Not sure which one I’m more perplexed over Varlamov or Ladd?

Oh Boy. Varly?

They gave him a brown bag and some glue pregame so he should be good.
