Shattenkirk out again, 2-4 weeks. As bad as this season has been at times, I'm glad we sidestepped that landmine.

Oh gotcha, I didn't realize he had surgery. Yeah I don't know if he'd be a difference maker, but I think he's definitely an improvement over some other guys currently taking up his roster spot.

Dead on. This is one of those times where it's not good to be right.

Is there a timetable for Joey Anderson's return? Feel like he's been out a while, and I don't remember what happened to him but didn't think it was that bad at the time. Also feel like we haven't been playing well since he's been out.

Given the way Schneider played two games ago, I don't see them bringing up Blackwood anytime soon. I feel like they're going to continue to give Cory chances here and there to see if he's finally coming out of his funk.

Haha, first goal in almost a year. Guess that's kinda expected from a 36yr old dman.

Hey, Andy Green does something good!

We have the record for most games lost to goaltenders playing their first game ever, and most players scoring their first ever goal against

There's no possible way you can say the season is over when you're only two games under 500 with about 60% of the season left.

Gotcha. I didn't see it great either, but it looked like a normal rebound and no one in sight to clear the puck or pick up the forward.

How exactly was that his fault? fvcking rebound barely in front and none of our retadrd defenseman pick it up.

Stafford!

Let's fvcking go bitches. I've had 4 8% reds apple ales on this cold night in Florida, don't make me regret staying up for this.

There's a better chance of Jimmy Hoffa scoring 2 points in tonight's game.

I think that's because last year was the first year we really had any semblance of success and some positives in a few seasons. The year before that was brutal, so last year seemed incredibly bright in comparison. Plus, we were getting some good bounces and luck, and there were quite a few feel-good storylines. Nico was a young rookie and it was exciting watching him and seeing what we think he might be. Bratt was a young guy as well just getting his shot. Cory was hurt and we didn't know he was going to be as bad as his has been, but KK was just starting to take the reigns full-time and was actually doing well, which seemed great. And then of course there was Hall, and that in and of itself was just elating as can be. Sprinkle in some other things here and there like Maroon, Vatanen, etc, and you have yourself a pretty jovial team. This year, not so much. Expectations were higher, and I can't say many guys, if any, are really living up to them. Pretty much Palms, and that's about it. I guess Hall is too, but he had such a good year last year that it was almost a guarantee he wouldn't exceed it.
