    Finally!
    what the hell is going on with this? fired or not?   I agree it's time for a change but the coach is only a small problem with this team.  the veterans aren't good enough. the young players are playing like shit and the goaltending is an utter embarrassment for an NHL team.

    I heard a stat over the weekend that we've drafted 23 goalies over the last 18 years and only one has played more than one NHL game, Stolarz! That's like the Brown's QB situation. 
    Alright, alright, alright!

    Bobrovsky?  that's pretty much the only other one I think though.

    They said it was Stolarz, Bob wasn't drafted.

    now they just need Kane, Toews, and Seabrook in their primes.

    to be fair, the team is better than what they have shown.  they have talent but no system.  also, i just heard that hart has been called up

    Hart appears to be making first Pro start tomorrow night. Recalled. All other goalies besides Lyon are now injured in the organization.

    Now official apparently. Scott Gordon from Lehigh named interim coach. Hakstol gone.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    their talent is well below the top teams in the East.  Good to see Hart coming up but the D needs to be a lot better in front of him.

    thought this was kind of entertaining although no way Gritty would like refs.  And got a little thing for katie nolan so...enjoy.

    Lehtera officially charged as part of that cocaine ring fiasco that blew up at the start of the season.

    Gritty has poor grammar (he is from Delco) and I did laugh out loud at some of that.

    Odd choice in jersey number for a goalie, 79? :confused: Let's see what Hart can do though.

    while Hart was not challenged alot yesterday, he did look comfortable on the ice.  I still don't know if he stays up when the regulars come back but i do see him being on the team next year

    I read a funny quote from bob Mackenzie who said that considering the flyers trouble with finding a goalie, they might want Hart to change his name to Vezina so that the pressure doesn't get to him.

    Fast and furious ending to the game last night, that was fun.  I thought Simmonds should have skated over and checked someone in front of the Dead Things' bench.  (I have lots of stored up hate toward the Red Wings Dead Things from the 90s)
