  1. Nuge would be missed big time. But Skinner is a snipe and would love to contribute!!

  2. Our journalists are such clowns. I am starting to get fed up with the stupid questions coming from DvD, DNB, Rishaug, Spector, Matheson and Gregor. Wish our city had a better class of journalism but sadly we are stick with these idiots

  3. I would hope RNH take day off if he's 80% or worse so he can come back better for G4. Think Skinner would be fine given what he showed vs Dal past series.

  4. After the last game RNH hasn’t performed to his potential, coughed up the puck at center ice that caused a goal, Skinner would be a better fit for sure.

  5. This is exactly what I was talking about, Skinner standing here all sweaty and tired out! Will he even have anything for tonight's game? Why is Knoblauch running the boys through their paces on game day? SAVE IT FOR THE GAME! …..The boys better not look tired today, or it will be all on the coach as far as I'm concern!
