It’s nice to see him actually get a shot in the NHL because he has paid his dues. The question as to whether Mancari and Paetsch will help is twofold…on the surface it isn’t going to help much but if the other players get the message that they will be sitting it could help a lot.

How far has Henrik Tallinder fallen in a short amount of time? I almost feel sorry for him and wonder if he was ever really that good. I think he was and still can be but he is in a slump…I hope this helps him.

It’s good to see Lindy finally start sitting guys for poor play because last season I thought Toni Lydman should have had a permanent seat in the press box and he played every game. I think Lindy sees the potential in this team and doesn’t want to see it slip away like it did last year.
