To say thank you to Wes Walz for the years of blood, sweat, and tears. Consumate professional.
Thanks Wes. Sorry your new team has to gets their butts kicked today.
The only way to avoid failure, is to learn from it.
Hey Lemaire?
Are you ever going to start Colton Gillies?….Your Ruining This Kids Confidence by continuing to bench him!
Gotta think he should have had a chance against Tampa, no? Boogey not really the type of player we need in this match up.

Harding
Has anyone heard if he’s hurt or something? I thought today would have been a good chance to give Backstrom a day off. He’s been mediocre for a week, and I can’t imagine it would be much worse to have Harding in there.
I Knew it!
Puck hit Sheppard on the MAB goal. Looked like Boogey though…

Whoa! They’re turning it into a 2:00 for unsportsmanlike in addition to a 10-minute misconduct. 5 on 3 for 2 minutes.
