I just like aggressive guys and he can't be because guys skate around him. | |

| AK has played well. What about grades for the others? | |

I hear you. I just don't think his style is a good fit here. We play hockey fast, aggressive and loud.
And I think one of Phoenix's goals in game one was a slap shot from the wing and he got knocked down by a Coyote in front of the net as the puck came by over Rinne's left shoulder. | |

| How were we better than Detroit the whole year? Weren't we .500 against them in the regular season? | |

| We are a better team than PHX. No debating that. Guys have just mentally checked out for whatever reason. | |

Those who wouldn't appreciate it as much: AK, Rads, etc, flat don't give a **** through two games. | |

| The turnaround needs to start tonight. Otherwise, my playoff beard will have a shorter life than expected...

AK and Rads have a history of being selfish pricks. Not surprised there. | |

Those are some of the thoughts that I agree with and wanted to put up for discussion. Damn, I hope they win and prove me wrong.
It would be a huge disappointment for the franchise to put themselves out there with the aquisitions and have them not pan out again. Plus, this is as aggressive as they have been. AK is the only one that has really been a positive, imo. | |

But they are really blowing it, big time. Poile went all in at the trade deadline and by signing Rads. AK has been a plus. Gaustad hasn't done much. He has won a few big faceoffs but lost several as well, especially against the Wings. Datsyuk owned him IMO. But it isn't too late. Ship can be righted but it has to start from the first drop of the puck tonight. | |
