Forgot one in the list....Marinaro talking about us winning the cup :laugh:
For a while, around last november Marinaro was pumping blood pressure on Jic show, his eyes were pupping off his orbits, I was thinking he would have an heart attack live on tv and someone from the staff making emergency care before the image switch to something else. Today he calmed down. He's very latin over reacting but he's clever enough to realise he's not Don Quixote and the Windmills. He will die when his real time will come.

I was talking on BPM. He even had an argument with his cohost on it.
 
They are back to where what they truly are... A bottom 8 team:

- lack of depth... what happens when a couple key players (Ghule and to a certain point Heinemen) get injured or arent 100% (Anderson who I think was a big + during the winning stretch). What's plan B? RHP? Beck? There are no true B plan at the moment. We need more depth players. Maybe we already have them (Tuch...) but they're not ready at the moment

- lack of talent... you can't play a playoff style all year. Impossible. And thats why they were successful in January.. We need more talent. Its coming but for now, its not there. We can see the limitations in Laine's play... Helluva shot but thats it; Newhook... crazy speed but thats pretty much it; Dach... I dont know, I think he'll never be a true good 2C. And that is our 2nd line...

- fatigue... Playing Hutson 20-22 minutes a game with the level of energy he puts in (thank god he's soo good) in all situation. Same with Monty. Same with Suzuki.

We're not there yet... we need more depth and talent. Lots of work for the management team.
