I'm going to go out on an avian limb and predict your forum house arrest continues.

Avian limbs are notoriously fragile, and I suspect that your perch is quite solid here Carl.

Detroit started the season 1-3-0 but then settled in and have gone 2-0-3 since then.

Winnable game we could still easily lose....

Right now, I'm not sure we have any 'winnable' games.... :/

I'm not sure theman is ready for what he signed up for.

It would be a lark in expecting winnable games with this lineup. I have a feeling theman's get out of jail free card gets revoked again.

Take these broken wings
And learn to fly again, learn to live so free

Obviously theman’s real name is Sisyphus.

I just read that Marilainen is starting again, so this will be a major challenge for you, theman.

I like the policy of starting the better goalie for the home games. I would have said it was better to save him for the tougher opponents, so that they don't start winning, but they may have decided that they have last place almost locked up early (before they have even started trading away any vets who play well) and can afford to win a few, and it would be useful to demonstrate that it's still possible.

I hope any kids pencilled in for the core and any planned trading chips have great games.

This one is going to be challenging for theman, but I am confident he will rise to the occasion once again.

They are obviously showcasing Meriläinen.
With Linus Ullmark going down, RJ plans to trade him back to Ottawa with DeBrusk for their first and a prospect.

Like the way you think, PoC. Clearly your mind hasn’t been affected by the syphilis that’s been going around.

I think theSisyphusman can continue to shoulder the boulder if vets like Gaggler and Schenn get showcased a lot tonight.
