Yes I did mention about them getting a point. If I am not mistaken, my actual thought was they STOLE a point. I even said from the seats it was the most undeserved point they will get all year, but on the flipside, if that one point still allows them to play after April 12, I will take my chances.<BR/>I love that I was included in here by name.

How about the coaching staff gone, and in replacement, Graves, Leetch, Messier. Messier said he wants to be a part of the organization, Graves is part of the organization and Leetch, well he's just great. Maybe they could actually light a fire under these underachievers.nyrmike21https://www.blogger.com/profile/01541209168643962754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9169155003164451698.post-79485248152730331322009-02-04T15:54:00.000-05:002009-02-04T15:54:00.000-05:00I couldn't agree with you more, Scotty.

This is the slow dismantling of our Blueshirts -- there continues to be nothing in the form of trade that might change the dynamics of our slumping leader-less team. Our Coach remains a players-coach (defined as one who does not bench anyone making over 2 mill a year) with a defensive sitback system that isn't effective when you dont' have a Blueline to begin with.<BR/><BR/>(Sigh). It's going to be a long season.<BR/><BR/>tdrThe Dark Rangerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12394949785830752700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9169155003164451698.post-54087193521078850962009-02-04T13:24:00.000-05:002009-02-04T13:24:00.000-05:00Scotty,It was Adam Graves night and if he is/was a...Scotty,<BR/><BR/>It was Adam Graves night and if he is/was a huge fan of the Soprano's then the cast being there is actually a good thing whether you like it or not.<BR/><BR/>As for the game Henrik is the worst puck handling goalie in the league. If he just covers up the puck Atlanta doesn't score. Instead he trys to play it off the boards, does a horrible job doing so and BAM a goal.Brother Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03135143828128853067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9169155003164451698.post-2030001422437887412009-02-04T13:08:00.000-05:002009-02-04T13:08:00.000-05:00Damn, not only is your blog dead-on accurate (I wa...Damn, not only is your blog dead-on accurate (I was up in the "cheap" seats [haha yeah, "recession"]), but the commenters were as well.

They are just four points clear of the worse team in the NHL (haha Islanders) and have lost four straight games ... including one to the Isles (hahahaha). Their goaltending is woeful; the formerly reliable Moose Hedberg has a 3.62 gaa and a .885 save percentage.

This is one of the few instances in sports I've seen where a team's chemistry actually decrease as the year proceeds. This team has no character and exciting or interesting players. Even power plays are tedious. Assuming that someone would actually take one of these big contracts, I'd have no objection to them trading almost anyone at this point except for maybe Henri. (Of course, they'll trade Staal and Callahan who will go on to have long NHL careers and kill us for years to come. See also, Marc Savard)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
