Well I tried to tell them that the United States Navy and Air Force had ALOT of Nuclear weapons based in a number of sites in Newfoundland and Labrador during the Cold War, hell, Goose Bay was used as a base because the area looked EXACTLY like the parts of Ukraine and Belarus they would have to bomb during a war.

Huh, well I probably didnt get a really good overview of the cold war until my history class in 11th. But I knew the good stuff from watching the history channel

Alain Vigneault has split the Sedins in practice, and potentially at the start of the Vancouver Canucks’ next game. Daniel Sedin was on Ryan Kesler’s wing, along with Alex Burrows and Henrik Sedin was lined with Byron Bitz and Mason Raymond.

Doing that isn’t a measure of success or improvement. Beating what he did before doesn’t mean we’re “on track” so to speak, this team sucks now but there are huge injury problems in all areas along with a rookie coach and a bunch of guys with no chemistry.

I’m still confident this team is better than the way they’ve played over the last month, even if it doesnt reflect in the points total.

Far from a crush and he didn’t have to play the puck since the whistle blew a second after the slight check. Also, he didn’t have to spin himself around and make himself vulnerable.

Still, team would still be in this game if Theo was in there. They have no energy, no effort because of the score right now.

I think the way the standings tomorrow will look will be the way the playoffs will look like for the east and unfortunately the cats r not in it. I think Ottawa will fall out.

1st goal was a complete breakdown by everyone, cant fault him on the SHG. So two goals he should have had. Regardless, we shouldn’t be goose egging right now.

Come on DT and MS…. We need to make a move to shake things up just ONE…. Raymond, Whitney, Moulson, Kostitsyn, etc….. Drafts picks and mid range prospects for all…. (Maybe one or two roster players could be had) All the injuries except for Theodore are beyond the deadline, so no more waiting…. I say Steeger, Flash, Weiss, Goc, Bergie, Matthias, Campbell, Gudbranson, Kuli, Garrison all untouchable on the roster…. But if a team wants one or two of the others to give us some scoring I say do it….

Now off to drink LOTS of wine…. Lets bring down the Kings!

by saskpantherfan on Feb 7, 2012 9:55 PM EST reply actions  

I so saw this coming and posted as such earlier today. We need some more players. We aren’t good enough. It’s not just one game- it’s a clear cut trend. Management needs to bring in some more players. Spend some f-ing money, damn it. Ten years is enough. We are finally two players away from making the playoffs. Doesn’t matter if we have little to offer-give up draft picks- or package a prospect or two with a fourth liner. We aren’t good enough yet without a few more of our second liners (Sturm and Upshall) or Dmitri- don’t kid yourself anymore. This is the time to fix it.. The Panthers are one of the rare teams who have better fans than the organization deserves- but how much suffering can the fans take. We’ve already broken records for futility. Even the Marlins spent some money on top talent and they have less fans than they deserve. This effort tonight was pathetic, but it was also a realistic barometer of where we are at. We can’t compete with the Caps with Ovechkin in the line-up. And the Caps are still missing a lot.
