I've been thinking this for a while and have to say it: DeMelo. He's not the sole cause of the team's issues, but last night he turned the puck over in our own zone right before the St Louis goal and then took a dumb penalty at the end when we were trying to tie it up. I used to be surprised that he has such a high plus/minus rating but then realized it makes sense because you don't get a minus when you're sitting in the penalty box.

I do believe I had that.... https://engage.winnipeg.ca/namethatplow/brainstormers/name-that-plow?fbclid=IwY2xjawOlS0lleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFJS0l6dEpqZVFwNnhoRXpmc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHioIaTrG17WKm94MDiPC81u7pwMAwth_-PAYLCkeWvyp2h4vEHIhf5t7PYvN_aem_LS5eoDwjIrLXRdTuF69fPw

Read a post from former Valour coach Rob Gale. Basically called out Wade for giving him and the team little to no support.

Calling it right now: "Plowy McPlowface"

Isn't the goal to make someone want to come to Toronto? That would do the opposite.

Still no word about the halftime act? WTF?

My take: This has to be an early April Fool's joke.

So Evans starts and Dukes is the backup. Now we just need some of their DL and LB’s to injure themselves before next week. 🤞

Wade Miller sounding arrogant? The devil you say.

Given the terrible performance by our D last week, I think the changes being made give us a decent chance to win despite the lackluster-looking O.

I’m pretty sure that all NFL stadiums have the same or similar bag policy, so this is Toronto’s way of pretending that they’re “big league” too.

Good challenge, terrible call by the Rider Replay Centre.

I remember someone saying that according to the refs the Dallas player did not kick the puck towards the net but "directed" it. Uh...yeah, he directed it by kicking it. If that wasn't a distinct kicking motion then I don't know what is.

The Magic 8 Ball said “no interference”.

And put the pitchforks away.

"This move shocks me" (said no one ever).

I was told there would be no math... 😜

This game has me concerned for a couple of reasons: 1. Back-to-back so most likely Comrie starting. He's been OK of late but I have far less confidence in him than I do Hellebuyck (obviously). 2. Nashville has been a bit of a "Death Valley" for us in the past few years. 3. Logan Stanley. He must have compromising photos of Chevy and Arniel - that's the only logical explanation.

Odds that the US anthem gets booed tonight? Or are we past that?

I hope you're half right.

I got confused when Leaf fans started throwing hats on the ice near the end of the game. I thought they only throw jerseys on the ice.

For those slamming Sportsnet and hoping for CBC, remember that the former is basically the sports broadcasting partner of the latter. Similar to TSN and CTV.

And indoor plumbing.

Oh good, the lineups were getting too short anyway. 😜

Congratulations to the Celtics. Now Doncic can spend the whole summer working on his whining to the refs. (He's a great player but that is becoming his calling card).
