I stand in solidarity with babs and domcha on this vitally important issue of international prominence.

You should be buggin. Dennis Seidenberg is back a week ahead if schedule from surgery on his herniated dick. NESN's Sarah Davis has confirmed he is cleared for contact.

Wouldn't be surprised to see a coaching change in Pittsburgh, team just can't play this system, and the coach has no emotion whatsoever

I saw Malkin's comment the other day...something definitely is amiss esp. given how they team has seemingly retooled. It is still relatively early in the season but I suppose the Pens don't want to dig themselves too deep of a hole...Would a coaching change be pressing the panic button, though?

It definitely would, but something has to give, they're not playing like they should and this system is choking the life out of the offense.

Maybe he built a good team. We're not quite sure..... Because he hired the wrong coach.

Still points to Rutherford being the issue doesn't it?

Or maybe this team isn't just built for the new boring as fuck NHL where stars don't matter and any AHL/ECHL goalie can have a save % of .950 and win you a cup. You know, Yumchah's NHL.

Domcha so bitter. I miss the pre-babs domcha, the happy-go-lucky domcha. The domcha who didn't care that his leaves sucked. No you're just mean and nasty and bitter with even less hair.

Everyone in NESN land still pines the loss of Katherine Tappen and her spectacular guns. Those things could make a season of maple leafs games watchable

Look, yumcha, when you're dead last in the league again and still filling the rink to its brim with fans, you have nothing to worry about.

Come to Edmonton and you don't have to even really play hockey. The expectations bar has been set so low, just showing up to practice will justify someone getting a 5M dollar contract. True story.

Bro.

There's something going on with his family but he's just trying to get closer to Winnipeg. That's the only reason he asked for a trade.

Well, if that's the case, if I'm Shirelli, I've got Snowflakes on speed-dial to see what it takes to get Hamonic.

Edmonton's problems aren't at forward. Maybe Eberle and Klefbom for Hamonic and a pick?

What do you guys think of this new all star format? I'm kinda interested in seeing an all star 3 on 3 tournament. It can't be any worse than every other all star game I've watched.

I like it. The last time an ASG had anything entertaining for me was the year before Vinny Damphousse won it I think...? And that's been awhile.
