    He’s definitely turned a corner at the perfect time. Hoping during these couple days off Ruff can figure out the lines and chemistry issues and run the corrected versions for the remainder of the regular season so they can gel.

    He wasn’t kidding. He’s actually been in the playoffs every single year of his career, with the exception of one year where he got injured.

    The forward lines are the least of our problems. Let’s figure out how to quickly cycle the puck out of our own end with a pass or two and we’re golden

  4. I’m not gonna do the math but the playoff experience gamewise likely blows the 2017’s squad out of the water.

    Hamilton-54 games
    Palat- 138
    Haula -61
    Timo – 35

    The 2017 squad had some guys like Lovejoy, Boyle, and some of the remainder from the 2012 run, but this feels like such a different group.

    Much as people get on him for being an offensive black hole, he’s a solid player and I want him for a few more years

    Really loved the 3rd line of Haula-Palat-Boqvist

    If we didn’t want a tough month and a half, we shouldn’t have acquired a player. That messes with chemistry, but gives you a good chance for the playoffs when you get to that point. We won enough games to where we can afford the slump a little bit. And I’m glad people have high hopes but we’ve missed almost all of the playoffs in the last…how many years? Just getting there is a huge accomplishment. And a first round win is all I’m even hoping for or expecting.
