Rant Part:
Brutal penalty by Nurse to give Florida life with 4 to go, lazily sticks his stick in the guys feet, just dumb. He had a poor game, got caught for a break against in the 1st when he was chasing the puck way deep in the Florida zone. Then misses an open net from the point, all he had to do was put the puck on net, that $9.5M contract isn't going to be even near full value if he doesn't straighten out his defensive game, has all the tools, keeps nullifying it all by mental errors.
Bouchard was a freaking tire fire, turn over after turn over, his collapse to the ice on the McDavid back pass at the blueline in the 3rd for the breakaway was comedic. Got turnstiled in the 1st for a grade A, missed the open man behind him for the 1st goal against, last man back and he tries to do a lazy stick handle past him.. coughs it up for another breakaway.. If we had a decent RHD option he should be in the press box, or down in Bakersfield learning how to play NHL defense.. I think he missed a few semesters.
IMHO the best defensemen actually playing defense right now are Nemo and Ceci.
I wish every defenseman would grease out players along the wall like Nemo does, he does it all the time, its simple, doesn't take any special skill, just the will to do it, its incredibly effective.. yet none of them do it, even Nurse only does it occasionally.. Nemo does every chance he gets.
Lots of defenseman brain farts going off today..
Happy Part:
Holy crap.. Miko! is that you? Where did that come from? Man, he played well.. he made some amazing saves.. stole the game.. made Bobo look ordinary.. He's a freaking enigma.
D. Ryan.. first NHL hat trick.. Bravo! He had n awesome game, he's getting his mojo back.. looking like he did in pre-season. Real asset. That extra contract year isn't looking so bad now.. I was thinking he'd be bought out for sure.
Sad Part:
Noogie! Looks like a shoulder. 
Hope its not too bad, he's been rockin' it at center lately.
Who draws in for RNH? McLeod goes to center?
I'm not looking forward to Smith in net tomorrow..

Bouchard has struggled, but he’s still a bright spot. Kid has little experience. I trust Manson in his deployment.
As for Nuge. Need him back. He takes away from our depth. With him, we can effectively run with 11 forwards.
