Man..I get that the arena can fill in but if you need an example of why ownership was getting frustrated see how empty it appears there.

Still the most dominating player I have ever seen and probably will ever see.

Yup, no one could physically dominate a game the way Lindros did in his prime. Orr, Gretzky and Lemieux could take over and win games with superhuman play, but not physically dominate the way the big guy did. You could see the fear on Dmen’s faces when the puck went in their corner and they knew Lindros was right on their tail.

The only time in pro sports when I’ve seen that kind of fear in an athlete’s eyes was in some of Mike Tyson’s early opponents

That Tyson line is so accurate..
If you saw the way his opponents looked at Tyson prior to his jail time then you saw the way most opponents looked at Lindros in his prime.

It's hard to imagine at 15.1% on the PP we aren't dead last in the league.

Yup. I remember the Marvis Frazier fight. Joe’s boy was crapping his pants during the ref’s instructions

I was thinking of the Michael Spinks fight. Spinks looked petrified coming out of his corner.

I have watched hockey, like many of you, for decades. Decades

What Giroux did there is what you should do, more often than not, on an odd-man: Shoot to score, shoot with purpose

Honestly I think moving him for a 2C who can PK would solve a lot of issues for this team.

Agreed, when you have the shot you ALWAYS take it. Play to win, not to lose.

Certainly wouldn’t hurt though it would leave them pretty thin on the right side
