Kind of bad/good news for the Penguins and BAD news for us in the Ducks’ side….Geno’s back and Saku Koivu’s still not recovered….and since Brookbank’s on the wing……………….Festerling on the D anyone?
I’m guessin’ one of the goalies gets hot, steals a couple-3 games and the rest of the team picks it up from there.
We all are waiting for some changes, but the team is in disarray. Everybody is nervous. Players know the code, they will not criticize the management. GM and the coach feel the pressure.
Frankly, I’m astonished Carlyle is still around at this point. And after Murph’s rant on thursday - quotes re it’s the player’s fault; Randy’s got a great system in place; he’s a good coach; blah blahblah blah- what freakin’ planet is he from?
Also, I’d appreciate it if both goalies would pull their head out of their a$$. Jiggy starts tonight - if Coach sticks to his word. Come on Jiggy!! Get that #1 job back.
