Some coaches are really dumb. I'm sure dicking around your best D is a good long-term strategy.

Hi Eastern Conference Wild Card New York Rangers, you guys are doing great! You could win the STANLEY CUP, hockey's holy grail. Would you like a hockey player? We've got a lot of them, and they're all on sale!

I just heard real professional NHL talk radio people speculating that players have quit on Therrien and a change seems necessary if not imminent.

ive already posted this elsewhere but i am posting it here also because it is hockey related: last night i went to rangers - islanders game with my dad and cousin and uncle and the game was good but by far the best part of the experience was when this drunk loud 30 year old behind us who kept trying to start "JT (john tavares, captain of the new york islanders) SWALLOWS" chants which no one was interested in following along with got mercilessly owned by a 12 year old islanders fan further down his row who shouted "LOOKS LIKE YOU SWALLOW A LOT OF PORK CHOPS BIG BOY *slaps stomach*" and the guy tried to come up with a good comeback and couldnt and the kid went "WHATS THE MATTER, DID YOU JUST GET OUTSMARTED BY A 12 YEAR OLD" and the guy got extremely red and mad and started cursing out the kid and the guys girlfriend told him "you're arguing with a loving child, grow up" and he protested that the kid started it and she told him she didnt want to talk to him until he stops being a loving baby and i was extremely happy to watch this mans total emasculation at the hands of a preteen

Someone explain the Jordie Benn trade to me.



I didn't think Jordie was an enticing player to anybody. Not in terms of "he's bad," but more he's just kinda mediocre.

Pateryn is a decent bottom-pairing guy and I guess Jordie is just going to be part of the steady rotation that is the Habs bottom pair defence.

That or Goldblum thought he was getting Good Benn.
