If you had told me before the season started that Murphy was going to be called up early on in the season and get this kind of ice time, I'd have tried to get you committed to a mental institution.

Biz has actually looked like a hockey player this year...

People love to give biz crap for being a bad player, but he has really stepped up his game. I remember going to a practice in October and thinking he looked so much faster and more agile than before.

He has been pretty good. Like an actual hockey player and not a goon. Not a great one of course, he still belongs on the fourth line, but his ice time has been deserved, definitely.

His lack of points doesn't tell the story, I think he's unlucky to not have more, even.

Yeeeeeeah, if Smitty could stay in his net for the rest of the night, that'd be great.

Cane's look much better tonight than earlier in the season. The look much more motivated and seem to be finding an identity. I was never able to pinpoint them but they seem to be playing similarly to the Red Wings.

Maybe I'm just more introspective, but my solution to your August hypothetical is to House-On-Haunted-Hill myself and just end it because Murphy started as ... the ... #11 defenseman?

... and NHL teams whose 11th choice d-men lead the team in ice time in a few games don't win.

Like, ever. Zero games.

As always, in GMDM we trust.

I don't care what anybody else says, Tim Kennedy has impressed the **** out of me lately. That kid has some serious hustle.

He does work his butt off, I just wish it would show up on the scoresheet for him more though.

Good job drawing the penalty though.
