I do believe you are correct.

There you go - bitch about no 4 on 4 goals and we get one!!

[ArJunaZ]

4 ON 4 no less!!!

[alta]

maybe if he played wing instead of D people may think better of his abilities

[justwincaps]

Isles 4 Hens 1 .  Less than 2 left in the game. 

[dpf1971]

That was a helluva shot  ...... wow

You mean he doesn’t play wing?

   There is nothing wrong with his abilities. You just have a hate on for the guy. He is playing well for us.

   Carlson us playing well. He has been decent in the defensive zone too.

as I've said before, I don't hate him, I recognize his skill level. At least I don't get a hard on over him

[justwincaps]

alan May with some serious love for Tom Wilson’s game tonight. 

[ArJunaZ]

Please . . .  No shorties!

   Neither do I. You guys think I'm a Carlson lover. I'm actually not. I started defending him because he was getting ripped so much here.

[alta]

that's bull shit. There is no way they've been selling out the last two seasons, there are way too many empty seats every night, no way that many people are eating that many tickets

[ArJunaZ]

         We'll take it!!!

well that's odd, we started pointing out how bad he is because someone here seems to think he's a Norris candidate

Memory is a fickle thing as you get older.

What would this forum be without Maaco?   He keeps us on our toes, rubs our face in it, and faces the battles head on.     Don't we have to have some respect for that?  Who needs boring and total agreement!

Could be.  Lady and I used split a full season pack until last year, when we went to about 5 of them and couldn’t resell most of the time


But yeah, any one can get a ticket, selling them is the hard part

Good win.  Team played well for the most part. A few very shaky moments in the back but not bad without Kuzy.  I thought Holts was pretty good most of the night.  I think those that are complaining he doesn't look as confident are missing that he is trying to play as fundamentally sound as possible which is what he's been working on with the coaches.  When that stuff is second nature again he can show his flash with the glove, etc.  For now, having him stopping the bulk of the shots is good enough.  A power play point blank, a double tip and a one v one with Jamie Benn for the 3 goals is not bad.

    Thats odd because you guys were shitting on him long before anyone ever mentioned Norris candidate. Especially you. There is no way you can say he won't get consideration for the Norris. He is the highest scoring dman in the league. Plays a ton of minutes and plays all situations.
   I wouldn't vote for him. I'd pick Hedman.

You're talking early in the season.  74 was very much 714 the past few years.  He's vastly improved this year.  To his credit the 714 moments are even fading into the past for the most part. We rolled our eyes many times in the past at his play.  You came in on the heels of that.
