Glad to see they learned their lesson about penalties... oh wait, they took one 24 seconds in.

You guys are right, they need to wake the hell up and stop believing the hype. We're coming back down to Earth quickly.

Blown third-period leads two nights in a row.

How many weeks does a "slump" have to go before it's no longer just a slump? Seven? Eight? Nine?
