All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
Thurm, this team sucks. It is what it is. I'm so tired of all the excuses being made for this team from the FO. They plain aren't good enough.
I must admit to the fact that I thought they would be much better than this. I do like Vanek and he has been playing hard but I just don't get why they continue to put him on shootouts. It looked like a complete half ass shot. I don't get it.
I think it was a mistake to put Vanek on the shootout while he is struggling. Stafford is supposedly our second best on the shootout and we didn't even use him. I can understand MacArther getting a shot at it, but Vanek seems to hate the shootout right now.

He just doesn't look like he bears down when trying the shot/deke. I like him, but right now he looks lazy.
I wouldnt say we "suck" nighthawk. Dont you have draft picks to research for the big 11th pick or something?
That was a great effort tonight against one of the most boring teams in hockey. Thomas Vanek should be benched.

yes, right now they suck. It's not like they've scored a ton of goals and then all of sudden they were stopped by the crappy, trap the Devils play. It is what it is...
True, but he did have time to get it back and do something. He looked like he gave up after almost losing the puck.
I think it was more that he had something in mind when he took the puck and while trying to visualize it, lost the puck and therefore his concentration. By the time he got the puck back he did the first thing that came to mind. Obviously he is frustrated and it showed after his poor effort when he slammed his stick on the boards. I don't have as much of a problem with his effort lately though. He seems to be trying hard, it's just that he isn't scoring. It will come, but will it be enough when it does?

We have lost 7 straight. They currently SUCK BALLS.
Then you say Vanek should be benched which is also WAY OFF. The guy played his ass off tonight and has pretty much all year he is certainly in a slump. In OT he skated hard from behind the goal line on a 3 on 1 to get back.

I just hate his shots on the shootout.
While I don't agree with the suck balls comment, I agree 100% with everything else!
