It looks like everybody is just off out there . Fire the damn coach and get it over with already . Drury is scared of his own job I guess and hopes they come out of it.

It is pond hockey every night .
I don't think Drury will have much choice soon. Id be more concerned with Housley than Lavi or Peca. The lineup is so soft mentally and physically. They do need some alpha males for sure. How bad is it when TV guys call your team a bunch of betas?

You know they all were terrified every time Wilson was out there yesterday . I am surprised they never called up Harpur with Rempe gone .

Zooks was like 5 foot 6 but still stood up. Playing us is like playing against a no hitting seniors league team. Most our guys can do okay on other tougher teams but not together with other soft betas.

culture is endemic and difficult to change. the reason why we signed a Goodrow or drafted an Adam Sykora is because the character to give it your all every shift is a rare and useful trait. stick it on a skilled, smart, or physically gifted player and you've got a stew goin. The best have all 4.

leadership and clutch are different than motor. i think leadership has a lot of facets - the guys who raise a cultural ceiling are different than the guys who raise a floor. Laf is more the former - he's more cherry on top than bedrock.
