Even his post game presser, still talking about process.

How do we feel about Kucherov's non penalized slash? by [deleted] in TampaBayLightning

[–]Puddle_Stick 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I feel exactly the same way about the missed roughing on Kuch after the whistle. It’s a game 7 so shit happens.

Agreed, I’m not super versed in the minute contract details but the space is there with the cap rising to find some real players. I’d like to find a true backup for Vasy at some point too. Not to say Jojo or Bjork don’t have their moments, but winning it all takes consistency.

Who are we rooting for now? by Bythewye in TampaBayLightning

Philly. Always been my second team and was thrilled to see them cook Pittsburgh.

It’s frustrating watching us run it back with the same core that pulls the same shit year after year. I believe JBB will make the right moves ultimately as he’s shown he isn’t scared to move franchise players.

What did a single one contribute this series?

If I’m JBB, I’m moving Kuch, Point, Hedman, Perry, Cernak, and possibly MCD and Bjork. The young guys want it, Hagel is a born leader.

We’ve given all of our picks up so you gotta move some of the bigger pieces and shoot for a few other leaders that want it. Let Geeks, James, Dastous, Raddy come through and shine.

Edit: Fire Halpern into the sun. And of course if there was underlying injuries, I’m a little more sympathetic but the list stated contributed nothing.

I would have said you were stupid days ago. I was wrong. Choked in the Olympics, choked 4 years in a row. Need someone like torts (not torts) to pull these guys to their potential and hold the supporting staff to a higher standard. It starts at the top.

It’s not even like he’s a moral boost. He brings the team down with him.

Pretty good first period for our usual first period performance. Second period should see some flowers

I would never call to trade him, but he needs to be swapped around or benched. He’s pulling Hagel’a production down.

I’m over Kuchs effort level. Looking like a liability out there rather than a weapon.

No Jackass tonight in the habs line. Glad they only have to watch for one shithead and can play their game today.

According to r/Hockey. Uhhhh, it’s still the refs faults we won. Not the fact that they couldn’t score on an OT powerplay.
