I got my own big game to do tonight against Ohio State so I won't be watching, but I certainly will be following the ticker!

Luckily, Anaheim is worse than Columbus
The guys really need to use this weak team to start getting back to a simpler, tighter game. They need to protect the puck better. Get it out of their own end whenever they gain possession. Break through the neutral zone as a team rather than just one or two guys with no support. Traffic to the net followed immediately by pucks to the net. Don't let Perry get into their heads. I'd like to see better line changes tonight. That has seemed to be a problem for a while now. Changes made at bad times. Sometimes its the players' faults, and sometimes its the coaches' fault. They should be able to get in behind the D, so offensive creativity would be good to see. I know the capability exists. It just isn't good enough to work consistently against good defenses.
Above all, SKATE. Skate all night, not just for parts of the game.
I'll finally be able to actually watch a full game (of course, I'll be spending intermissions studying, but that's not a big deal). The team knows the deal...
Just. Freakin. Win.
