Bylsma was their farm team coach, he was already in the system, we have Terry Murray and Riley Cite on the farm

Ah, OK, thanks, I didn't know Bylsma was their farm team coach.

Gallagher out with a concussion, it seems.

True, guys like him have a short shelf life and it looks to me like it has runs its course here, sadly.

In short, if you're only going to post when things are going badly, and only have pessimistic points to make, you should back it up with a more reasoned foundation than you often do. He got lucky to drag the Islanders into play-off contention, and then win in Carolina, and then coach a team with four d-men and 0 goalies to game 6 of the finals. C'mon sir. You'll have to do better than that.

Ok. Almost time...

Who all's going?

I'm even flying up from Texas again. Plan to catch the Sat game the day before too...

I think he meant to post in the Wives Carnival thread.
