Honestly, it is next man up... Ghost is about on my last nerve and I honestly was hoping he was traded. I am more worried about Zalmula and the back issue. I read it was a degenerative issue which is worrisome for the long term.

Seilski is a dope!

Vandevelde = Lehtera = Stewart There always has to be one right?

I hear ya!!! I moved out of there about 13 years ago and am now about 60 miles from the city so I don't get there as much these days. My cardiologist seems to think the distance is helping my cholesterol

Second... although I would go just go for Dinics band enjoy the market. B/t the two you can't go wrong.

maybe that should be the new marketing mantra? LOL!

Still believe this was Hextall's worst signing. There was no reason to sign him to that contract when he did. He created his own market for a RFA.

one other thought.... we are always 2 years from being 2 years away!

we are nearing a decade of mediocrity which is astounding to me! Wash, rinse, repeat...

G is suck! That game was pathetic. I would listen to any and all offers at the moment but I don't suspect G is the problem. The guy is a heck of a hockey player - he will never be the Messier type leader in that dressing room but that does not mean he is a bad captain. Our defense is a wreck and our goal tending is not helping matters at the moment. For all the talk about how great our young players are it is difficult when you lose Patrick and Laughton to serious time. Ghost, Sanheim and the rest of the defense have been piss poor as of late. We have TK and probably Farabee right now that are blue chips along with Frost - adding Lindy to that list as well. Outside of that most of the prospects and/or young players are not making any impact. Provy looks like a player but he has regressed and hoping he returns to form and develops. Frankly, I am honestly done with Ghost and just don't think he is mentally a strong player - if he does not get his way he is not coachable. One game... if they are on the outside come December a move needs to be made.

Good night to cut my cable subscription! I am an AV fan and I hope he murders them on the ice in practice. The excuses are just that... BS excuses. Right now it comes down to the players. Results and nothing else at this point IMO. This team is a fragile bunch... I hate to say it but shake up the core if that is what it takes. There is something just not right w this crew of players. Tonight was a disgrace. No more excuses... I know it is one game and early in the season but the same thing happens over and over regardless of coaching staff and/or GM. For ****s sake...

Good morning all and I hope everyone has been enjoying the games this year. Tonight I would go with Moose - he has flat-out earned the start against the Pens IMO. Carter needs to work through his issues right now and I would not start him in this spot. I am not worried about Hart but right now he is in a brutal funk. He started off bad with Phantoms last year and rebounded nicely - the kid will be fine. Defensively, as @OccamsRazor mentioned, they need to forget about the last game and move on. That was a brutal performance all around - Sanheim, Ghost and Morin were all noticeably bad. Speaking of Ghost - does anyone think he will return to form? I am starting to get the feeling if he does not get to play his style he just shrinks and regresses. The talent is there but I am beginning to wonder if the issue is b/t his ears...

Let's hope that was not a premonition of what is to come for Provy. Soft and Lazy passes to the middle are not going to help...

"POTATOE"

Let's go boys! How about we start the season with some wins and urgency for a change! Our 3rd line defensive center is ready!!
