Hall not playing reminds me of a career alcoholic who never drank on New Years. It was the night for the amateurs he'd say.
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

Why Nilsson? Theyre on roll and Marky is on fire. Nilsson lets in bad goals early like his job depends on it.

Especially with a back-to-back coming up.

Oh Goldy, great effort checking Boyle. :hmmm:
You know Sutter needs a spot in the lineup soon.

Meh. It wasn't that long ago (like November) we were railing on Marky for his back-breaking, early, soft goals.

He's also shown (so far), a tendency to lose his form when the load and pressure of being a #1 ramps up.

This is one of those tough trap games where you don't want to level down to your opponents but probably will. And their body clocks are probably still on local time which means playing a 7:00 am game.

Goldy cannot produce without Pettersson. When Goldy was on the first powerplay unit, they gave up shorties. When Goldy was on the second powerplay unit, they gave up shorties as well. Goldy just cannot play defense.
