Great test today.

Because of the authority I have over this team, I am making this game a defining moment in the direction we take this year.

If we can beat this big dawg with authority, making the playoffs is a priority

If we beat this big dawg in a close match I'd say see above but with tempered enthusiam

If we lose to this big dawg in a close match ffs what do we do with this keep the tease and uncertainity going

If we lose to this big dawg with authority, close up shop, call up the senior mens beer league bottom dwellers and call it a day

You’re missing a 0-0 game.

and a Stan hit on Kucherov

Perfetti looks so disinterested on the bench

[captaincanuck12]

I should have stopped caring.  Everytime I do the opposition scores.   

2-0 lightning
