The same steamboats that Lu sat on his ass & didn't recover?

Lu's the easy target to pick on. I guess it's harder to figure out who gave them the 3 on 0.

I know, Hodgson god, Lu devil.

He's the easy target to pick on because he's terrible. That PP goal hit the inner portion of his glove and went in.

Build a 2-0 lead then cough up 3 unanswered goals?? Pardon me for hitting the panic button, but this is unlike anything we've seen in the last couple of years...
- killface


I'm still not hitting panic. But I was preaching calm 2 weeks ago and am no longer preaching. Since there's nothing I can actually do I'm giving the team another 2 weeks to turn into form. If they're playing like this at the end if March we'd be a candidate for a 1st round upset.

Not judging, preaching, hating or whatever, but we need to start rolling Schneider with some regularity.

I don't mind that at all, but at least subject him to the same scrutiny as Lu, regardless of contract.

Coming from the guy who figures Hodgson should be our 2nd line C. Has he scored yet for Buffalo? How many points did he have as a 2C while Kesler was out? You should add some objectivity to your arsenal.

I think we would (or most of us would) if he was playing at an equal level.

He has as many goals for Buffalo as Henrik has for us since the TDL.

Kesler was only out for the first 5 games of the season. Hodgson's first 5 games as a top 6 player.

Your expectations of Hodgson are a hell of a lot more unreasonable than my expectations of Luongo.

Actually, your expectations are. It seems to me Henrik didn't have any problems winning the Art Ross while Coho was being treated for his back, so to correlate that is asinine. I'm not the guy thinking Hodgson was ready for a 2C position on a Cup contending team, nor am I the guy who drew comparisons to Sakic or Yzerman.

Love Lu giving Kesler crap for not tying up Pyatt's stick. Guess what Roberto? If you were Fing guarding the post that has no chance of bouncing off Brule.

It's getting to the point where I don't even want to watch when Luongo is playing. He makes me sick.

Is it just me or is Alberts looking like our best Norris Trophy candidate these days?

If Hodgson were ever given the opportunity to play between Booth & Kesler, this might be worth debating.

My expectations of Hodgson weren't for him to rip it up, they were for him to be a buffer between Booth & Kesler and make them more effective.

We have 2 goals from members of the AMEX line tonight. Neither were 5 on 5. I still don't believe in that line's ability to produce consistently.

TBH it's hard enough to get up to watch a game these days, imagine how difficult it is to get up to play one. I'm not concerned, better now than a month from now.

That's great. Seeing as how he's not going to play with them for the foreseeable future and considering what he's done since he left us (and the talent around him) I think we can stop talking about it.

Rebound luongoal is washed up. AV needs to grow a pair and put Schneider in net. Its time to sit Bambi Raymond and call up mancari and play him with the sedins. Also BXA needs to learn how to make a play on a 3-1 that was just pitiful what he did.
