  So, uhhh, been away for a bit. Had to know: What's the deal with Kaberle? What was THAT all about? I mean, you could MAYBE explain Eller being in the shootout...maybe (even though I thought it was totally Mickey Mouse), cuz usually, you want to get SCORERS in the shootout and one Jan Bulis night does not a scorer make; that's just my opinion of course. But Kaberle. I like the guy. Good pickup. Has played better here than in Bos and Car combined. But...but...but, I mean, what's goin ON here? What POSSIBLE sense was there in putting him in the shootout? Does he have a HISTORY at any time in any team of poppin'em in during shootouts? What the hell?? Who's mindin the goddang store?! Are we dealing in BEADS now? Have we somehow AGREED to call it a season and no one sent me the memo? The trying-to-WIN-games scenario has officially been taken off the table, that it? Are they shutting the team down before the international sovereign debt fiat bubble bursts? What the HELL, man? Wh..., I mean...th...the...I...I...ub...up...guh...I mean, there ARE NO WORDS, man! (long sigh and pause, steepled-hands under chin to collect one's thoughts, rocking back on forth in front of the screen) The draft choice management has its eye on better be friggin Gretzky.

  Yahoo bein incendiary to the point Hickey snapped? No way. Must be some misunderstanding. Sadly, Mr.Ian is a repeat bandwagon hopper-offer. Not surprised. But rejoice, he'll be singin the team's praises once they climb back into contention. And that forthwith. Language context is they weren't expecting Jack Marty to get canned so soon. (That's why Therrien seems to be pronouncing himself more, no? Roy too, for that matter) Didn't have proper plan in place. No matter intentions or circumstances, it WILL create a bad vibe and the players'll feel it. To their credit, they DID call Cunneyworth "interim" which might allay the issue, but not long with losses pilin up. If we won every game, you could hire a Swahili fellow and we wouldn't boo twice, not hire someone and then promise to win. Which is the argument we frenchies hear all the time, that we would rather stay french and lose then become english and win, as if THAT was a fait accompli. We'll see. The guy's not incompetent, just not competent enough. Soobie was playin like nonchalant crap and Eller, for all his "hard work", doesn't produce jack-squat. They're on their own. If they got game, shouldn't be anything to worry about. I am at a total loss for Gio. Is he injured as well? That's what I think they're suffering from, injuries. In my opinion, those producing should be getting maximum ice-time. Pleky, Dezzy, Pac-Man, Cole, Andrei and a top-6 player to be named as events dictate. Back from the Brink's boasts L. B.

  Good golly, I take off for two shakes of a lamb's tail and when I get back, it's to find the place has gone completely to hell. Listen folks, believe it or not, I won't always be around to make some kind of sense of the proceedings and help us all find some measure of comfort as we strive to maintain the even keel, but that doesn't give anyone a license to take their eye off the prize just because I ain't around, fer gosh's sakes. Whatasamatta with youse? Very, very disappointed. Very disappointed. What, FIVE games in a row? C'mon, man. C'mon. (exasperated sigh) Ok, I'm back now. Everything's gonna be ok. Where do we start? Somebody gimme the lowdown. Back from the Brink's boasts L. B. Potter, esq.
