So it's all schedule quirk. We got all the good teams first. We got this! Stay the course ;).±± I think I might have ingested too much of my own kool-aid. Good stuff though. Look out for All New Baba Brew at a store near you.

As long as I stop hearing about the magic of Smith n Keith for two weeks, I'll be happy. Yes, it'll be replaced by the magic of Kane, but at least he's still a real impactful NHL player.

They need to win at least 8 of those 13 though. 8-3-2 or something.


You know, I'd be okay with these narratives, knowing that media loves an old-warrior-as-mentor story (remember hearing how Oates' dreadful final season was really just planting seeds for the 2006 Cup run?) but that our management is likely to ignore all evidence to the contrary and pay through the nose for some other broken down old guy to come and "show the team how to win" rather than finding someone impactful who can actually help.


Personally I think Oates did help. Stoll and Horcoff both turned into face-off studs in rather short order.
