Even your hyperbole has lost its edge.

Sure, and it was great for a Tuesday night game in early March against Ottawa. But now we're down to business.

Last night was the first time Trouba has been on for a goal against in the playoffs. Yeah, that pair had a horrific game, which at the end of the day cost the team nothing. If you're always wanting more from a 6-0 team maybe it's time to re-evaluate your expectations.

He was the best contract in the league this year.

Exactly. So why are people losing their minds if a guy who plays four minutes gets swapped out?

You just described Rempe, who's much worse at hockey than Brodz.

Yes, because he didn't have Wennberg and Roslovic to push guys down the lineup. Now, he shouldn't have to. Brodzinski was a 3rd liner for half the year, but now he can't be a regular 4th liner for a few games on the road? I don't buy that. Yes the Canes played 9 forwards last night. I'm not talking about the Canes and I'm not talking about last night. Rempe playing 4 minutes a games is a big enough issue in a 60 minute game, it's even worse when he sits in a 2OT game after period 2.

They exist. In the same world where Mika isn't good at setting up other players. You really can't make this shit up.

Why do you care what I care about is the better question? Your love affair with me continues.

I don't even understand why we're still talking about Strome. Nobody complained about signing Trocheck over Strome on July 1. No one. Last year Tro and Bread were oil and water so it was easy to wonder if they made a questionable choice. Now they found their chemistry. This year he became the player everybody said he would be last year (but wasn't), so why are we still talking about a guy who hasn't been here in two seasons?

Is Rempe sits next game and they lose... Then all you have to do is put him back in.

All of this, and it's also a really odd time to be complaining about anybody on the team. They're undefeated in the playoffs. Can they at least lose (once) before we start pointing fingers at players?

I know what a health bomb is, thanks. I just don't get what bringing up the term has to do with anything. No one is going to miss 4 mins of Rempe. They will carry on the same as they do after he gets ejected.
