What if it was just hype. He hasnt proven anything yet. He has yet to steal a game since November this year, and what has he won in the NHL? No allstar games, no cup, no vezina? Does he really deserve 7 mil? He may be as great as he was touted, however hes not the King until hes shows me more than a 3.00 goals against average and a barely .900 save % What if King Henrik is not the King afterall?

You cannot have Michal Rozsival shooting before Jagr or Drury. That was just terrible judgement on the part of Renney. If Jagr is uncomfortable shooting in the shootout maybe he should work on it in practice. Watch old video of himself when he was unstoppable on breakaways. The way he is going about this is unacceptable. The shootout, whether you like it or not, is part of the game now and we cannot afford to have our best players on the bench during it!

When did Jagr become the coach? Renney needs to grow a set of BALLS and tell Jagr he is shooting. DO NOT ASK HIM! Renney needs to take over the coaching again. When did Jagr become the coach?

You cannot expect Hank to make every save, but I do expect him to make some saves that he shouldn't. He needs to stop going down so much, as he is always leaving the top of the net exposed. Avery, Shanny and Straka both looked pretty bad last night, I still don't expect Prucha to come back in, but a case could be made for giving him a chance over Straka (who seemed to have only one hand on his stick whenever he tried to clear the defensive zone or dump in the puck in). Shootout was comical, no defenceman on this team should be shooting before any forward with a hint offensive ability (so Rosi can go before Orr and thats probably it. And what was the deal with Jagr taking two offensive zone penalties. That should not be happening. Every game from here on in should be treated like a playoff game for the players and I can bet none of the team was happy with last nights performance. That kinda play is not going to get us far if we qualify for the postseason and I say this totally expecting about five of you telling me every game isn't perfect, etc etc We snuck out with a point, but no one should be satisfied. malik and backman have no place in the nhl, but we are stuck with one of them this year.
