If we had Bobby it would be over tonight with 4 straight shutouts. Still, Bergeron, Seguin, Chara, Seidenberg and Marchand (the little ball of hate) aren't chopped liver.

Is there a sane person who believes a $2,500 fine makes a difference to a player? Shea Weber makes $2,500 per shift.

As far as the Shanibans...he started out a little too strong in the pre-season and early games but since then he seems to have found a decent level. My main concern is that it is the same for everyone. Crosby, Sedin, or Briere should get the same bench as Marchand, Carcillo or Downey.I will give the...
