The boys have been playing back to their previous rate before the holidays since they returned home
And we've gotta stick to that process. If we do, the goals will come.
With that short return home out of the way we're back on the road to the North tonight, and it's time we return the favor earlier this year for Chief Keefe's sake.
While we'll be without our beloved Nose, it appears they'll be down John Tavares for the foreseeable future with him being placed on IR today. Both teams will be banged up a bit heading into this one.
With all of the preambles out of the way, it's time to take it to these frauds. Let's f***ing go.
Bill's in it to win it tonight, so we should be too.

I was thinking about football coaches and guessing it’s the same with hockey coaches, he may spend so much time at work during the season that the amount of time they would see each other during the year is pretty restricted anyway. So then you make the choice to not disrupt their current lives to only add a small amount of “ships passing in the night” moments.
