There is a culture problem in that room. I suspect it's a divided locker room.

Somethings not right, that's for sure.

Guess that's it for the hockey discussion.

Schmidt waived his NTC to go to Winnipeg.
Players can't get out of Vancouver fast enough.

Can't blame them. Van is a sh!t-hole. Couldn't find one f*ucking good pizza place there too many flakes eating healthy lol

US border reopens tomorrow, ya’ll heading down for cheap beer and smokes?

Vegas in late May. Best garlic-parm wings ever at the MGM Grand pub by the sports book area.

Imo it’s the collection of personalities.
Lots of youth in prominent roles.
Only Miller & Pearson on the top 6 to be vet leaders. One is extroverted the other not. The rest are pretty silent other than Garland who plays & sounds like a leader. Bo has to take it to another level.

Nice to see our castoffs succeed on other teams.

It's amazing what can happen when you put talented kids in positions to succeed and develop instead of healthy scratches and low time on ice

White Widow for me tonight, it also helps me cope with some of the bat sh*ts in here.

If special teams didn't suck so horribly would we be up in arms?

Of course we’d find something 😂

Any of our D men have 9 points yet?

It's almost as if our Swedish scout has a great grasp of amateur scouting but the rest of management doesn't.

This is true but not enough ice time to go around for all our kids. My problem is lines make up & the blender.

Benning doesn't care about prospects at this stage of his tenure. He realizes he has to win now and he likely won't ever see young prospects develop.

All in, he'll keep doling out picks/prospects until he's fired.

They should have a better chance tonight because I'm not watching.

I'm in excellent shape, lost 15 lbs since moving down south full-time and now my wife wants to stay as we sold our house down here, it was too big, and purchased a nice 1900 sq ft townhouse which is much easier to take care of and maintain. Plus we found suitable health insurance for her.

Good choice 👍🏻

Game day!

i'm so conditioned to Dallas beating Vancouver at Rogers Arena that I'm finding it tough to get fired up for this one — although I am happy to see they've looked at re-vamping the PP deployment, at least.

Here's the new blog:

https://hockeybuzz.com/bl...e-Dallas-Stars/194/114439

Looking at everything…

EP is rusty from his long lay off.
- That has been problematic.
Boeser getting going has been slow.
-again problematic aka the PP.
Remade D has been solid.
Demko has been as advertised.
-Halak a very capable back up.
PK injuries an obvious big hurt.
The blender drives us bonkers.
PP in shambles without guns up to speed.
Miller & Garland bringing the scoring.
Bottom is holding their own

It’s a marathon not a race but no signs yet this will get on the tracks. Coaching gets the heat & rightfully so. Continuity is a 4 letter word imo.
10 games in isn’t a lot but it also hasn’t had enough positives in it. This home stand has created a big hole to recover from & it’ll test their fortitude or changes has to happen.

Thomas Gradin 👍

I disagree. Pearson hasn't done anything to deserve top 6 minutes.

Dahlen plays with couture and meier.
Lucas Raymond plays with bertuzzi and larkin

Both players above get PP1 as well. Their teams might not be good, but they are getting confidence, getting points, and developing with proper players

Guess that's it for the hockey discussion.

If we could get 25 of them we might conquer the Pacific.
