He may need to sit and watch for a game. If he's not waivers exempt, send him down for a confidence booster.

Flyers need one. Talbot getting the shutout would suck

I'm not surprised by their record. I'm surprised by the cause. They either made a horrific decision to stick with the morons posing as goaltenders or just couldn't swing a deal. But anyone with an elevator reaching the top floor had to know the offense had to click on all cylinders at all times if they were going to win games. Because their defense is suspect as well But whether it's the offense being hampered by trying to help with a pedestrian defense and moribund goaltending or there's something wrong up front, as well. I'm really hoping their front office tried to make a goalie move and failed rather than thinking they'd be okay in goal, because the latter should induce either criminal charges or a medical intervention.

Prorate!!!!

Are the flyers on their schedule? Help will arrive at some point.

The only problem, from my vantage, is you still are left with Kadri and Huberdeau. I still trade all four, but they're going to have to figure those two players out. They're not snake bitten. There's seemingly more at play there. You follow them and I don't read a lot of Calgary stories. Is there something gone terribly wrong in the locker room? Or did people get paid and say "#### it, I'm tenured. Take it from me!" I like Lindholm, but pretending he, too, isn't a problem, he's not good enough to carry whatever else is going on there.

Yeah, I knew you hadn't seen it and were just reporting something you heard/read. I wouldn't watch it if you haven't

He's an utter imbecile. Pre-natal onward.

Well, Dan Carrillo thought so, so apt description. (OR was just reporting what was being said, so not directed toward him)

What a puss move. Give him at least 4.

Maybe, but that honestly didn't look like that to me. The other player appeared to get hit and was pinwheeled. Hit him with his skate kind of as an upper cut (sorry, terrible way to put this, considering) right into his windpipe. The other player went flying into a heep and then seemed horrified.

Distinction without difference.

You realize you just rubbed yourself down with raw meat in front of a pack of hyenas, right?

All I can do is the 2-step and the square.

Thank God I have contacts in the the Cup Quest league. Vodka. hmmm. Now that I'm done trading and pipers can't read this (he doesn't get this site on his Commodore 64) I'm going to go get some vodka.

If Anderson gets hit by a moped driver on the way to the Circle K and is out for the season, I may have to hate you. I have to do something in goal, though, just to make sure I get starts. I'm burning through moves just to get Albertson's cashiers to pretend to be a goalie for a night just to make starts--no worries about winning anything or a sub-5.xx GAA. I've just needed to force a start count. I really like Tage. I've burned through Tage and Ovechkin (who I do NOT like and never will) just to have average goalies to float with. I hope the Yahoo coding monkey who picked Koch and fricken Fleury in the autodraft is sold to a mascara company in Bangladesh.

Man this sucks. The kid could have been so good and the gods of Olympus are giving him the Nolan Patrick treatment.

Well, they're not the first line; they're the fourth. So, there's that. I mean, they started the game, but that doesn't make them the first line. It's the least concern. On the other hand, I'd almost argue to play them more if it helps get a top five pick.

I swear to God I thought similarly. I would absolutely take a chance there. If it doesn't pan out, you've still gained cap room.

I'm calling confusion.

The Leafs winning the western conference final will be a much bigger surprise than Sorokin, I can guarantee.
