What...?

If he came around during the regular season and when things were going bad, I don't think he'd get this hazing.

A lot of talk here today about how shitty Crawford is. And how Emery is on standby. I'll admit I haven't seen much of him but last night he just looked awful. It's his side to side movement that seems to be an issue.

Just funny that no mention of Raask letting in 6. But they weren't weak goals I guess in comparison to what Crawford let by.

@$$clown coach. I did not like how he ran the Canucks team and usually, a team takes on the personality of the HC.



And also, how many Cups has AV won despite having that roster with Vancity? So, I think you have enough to make your own judgement.

Maybe Bernier can be Team Canada's goalie. Waldorf has been touting him as the next coming of Quick before Quick became Quick.

Yup, why the Nucks and Rags swapped coaches when Ruff was available is beyond stupid.

At least the Stars got a good coach for their re-build.

That would imply that Slats and Gillis are good GMs.

One more win...but, with casualties on both sides: Bergeron and Toews.


Ack. I think Hawks needs Toews more than Boston needs Bergeron...
