Thanks Carol!

To whoever stole Rantanen from me in the fantasy draft - thank you!

I thought Bo was playing a lot of minutes so far this season, but I didn’t realize that Bo averaged almost 21 minutes a game last season. Averaged. He’s below that average this year but it’ll be impressive if he beats it.

That stat tells a lot about the player and the faith coaching staff have in him.

Free Gaudette!

It's great to hear how tight the locker room is for this team. Super important for a fringe team to want to go to war for each other if you want to make the playoffs.

Has me thinking about Markstrom's future with this team. The guys always say they love playing for him and he's a great presence in the room. I wonder what an extension for him would look like, given Demko making steady progress.

My hope would be to sign Marky to a 4 year deal with the promise that if he is unseated by Demko he will be traded to a team where he can be the starter.

Gaudette is right where he belongs. He doesn’t score or play defence

Good on Bo and Quinn to put on a show for their friends/fam, both had a great third period. Quinn was one of the better guys all game, did he hit a corssbar and a post?

Thanks Carol, great stuff as usual!

Treat him like Corrado and Subban

When Quinn was mixing it up waaaaay away from the play (still in the offensive zone while the puck was in ours) - Bo left the play & had his back. The whole thing transpired without any stupidity/whistles/penalties... (frank)ing loved that. That was alpha Captain sh!t.

Just send him down, and call-up some other dude to keep LE and Fatburger company in the press box.

He can continue developing chemistry with Sven and then both can eventually get called up once Green realizes that having 2 centers who can’t make plays for wingers in your bottom 6 is a dinosaur strategy

Yeah I noticed that too, great stuff.

I might be willing to do a deal for him if he's only out a couple of weeks

I get the feeling Green will wait for injuries to force calling up offensive wingers. LE kills penalties after all...

Early talk is week to week. Still waiting to hear the MRI results... I'll wait for now.

Bigger handfuls, opening his mouth wider? Maybe put some dill seasoning on it?

Oh and always having floss for afterwards
