But, hey, they got a point out of it. Not completely terrible. It’s a step in the right direction, and good when you think about the fact that the leagues #1 PK allowed a goal by us! Mind you, that same PK also scored a goal against us (but they lead the league in that too). And this without our top defensemen and arguably 2 best forwards.

OTL….I think what hurts (most) is it wasn’t a blowout game, it was yet another close one. And we lost. Again.

Yah I am not saying this year is bad, just it hasn’t seemed as bad compared to other seasons. We’re always losing big name players it seems, so that isn’t much new. But this year, most of the injuries haven’t been for a lot of games i don’t think, aside for Gilbert. The other guys maybe will miss about a dozen ish each on average? Still not quite known yet though.

less games better players?

Hall, Eberle, RNH, Whitney, Gilbert, Hemsky & Gagner have all missed multiple games this year. best 2 D best 5 forwards.
