MAF isn't even in net and yet we are suffering

Murray has more games played... he's basically the starter...

this is probably the biggest point here... Pens "lose" a guy they were going to send down anyways... and Jets lose Toby for at least a couple weeks...

This is exactly why this is so brutal.  They called up a mercenary, he did his job, and no one really suffers except Toby and the Jets.

So what happens if Jets call up Peluso and he elbows Crosby in the head?  Oh well.  Its ridiculous.  NHL has to put a stop to these mercenary call ups and start punishing the coach and team.

They've been talking about the issue of players running goalies because of the Concussion Protocol requiring time in the quiet room.  The idea being, imagne its OT of Game 7 and a 4th line player runs the goalie, goalie is "fine" but is forced to go to the quiet room and his team is scored on and loses.

Start punishing the team.  If the PA is so ass-backwards they wont cooperate on player safety, punish the coaches and teams.

I still cheer for Petan... Maurice jobbed him.

Look at his first 15 games... he's getting 7 pts, -2 and about 15 mins per game, 19-20 shifts... quarterbacking powerplay (5 pp assists)

Next 15 games... his minutes get cut to ~10 per game, 15 shifts... and he's 4pts, -1

Last 14 games...  around 8 minutes ice time, about 12 shifts... zero pts, -8

This looks more like a player losing his confidence than anything else...
