His role seems to have kept growing over the last couple of years. Also Madigan must really be turning heads. She's moved up quick in 4 years. I heard an interview she did where she talked about how much more of the scouting involves mentality and personality over just on ice skills nowadays. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satans Hockey Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 (edited) That stretch of 5 home games in 1 week during February 27- March 6th and March 13-20 is the perfect example of having to get tested to go to games not being worth the hassle...

Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Man we're getting dangerous close to "back-to-back-to-backs"...like they used to have in the AHL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was expecting that would happen, glad it’s not. That’s a lot of hockey in a short time, which of course I like, provided we can stay fresh.

Ridiculous schedule. This team will never stay healthy playing 4 games a week. It is what it is. But dayum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Guessing some guys will shuffle in and out of the lineup, to help manage fatigue. But yeah, an insane volume of games...and who knows what happens if future opponents suffer outbreaks of their own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad it only saw game action once. In all seriousness, I kind of feel bad for Comrie. He gets claimed off waivers by NJ, has to quarantine for 14 days, is off COVID protocol list for like a week, then has to quarantine for another 2+ weeks due to the Devils Covid outbreak, then gets claimed off waivers by WPG and now has to quarantine again for 14 days upon his return to Canada. The guy has basically been stuck in a hotel room longer than Tom Hanks was stuck at JFK Airport in the movie the Terminal. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guys like Comrie can remind you how unglamorous life can be as an NHL fringer trying to keep playing. These stories are often just as interesting (often even more so) as the ones about superstars who dominated every level of play from the time they learned to skate, hit, throw, etc. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
