Are They Ready?

Hello all and welcome back to the koolaid. Today is going to be one of those weird ones as I will not see tonights game while it is going on. I will record it to watch it later but tonight is a special night, as it is me and my wifes anniversary. I have the utmost confidence that tonight the team will begin it's journey back to respectability. As noted earlier today by Rich Hammond, this team now leads the league in fewest shots against per game. Now they will find a way to hit the back of the twine. As I watched a dumb hockey movie today (Mighty Ducks 3) I thought maybe TM should do that drill. The drill was picking up the garbage where the coach literally threw trash in front of the net and the players were to try and put the garbage back to the net. I feel this is the mentality the team needs on the power play. The power play to this point in the season is more than likely the reason the team is not already in prime playoff contention and battling for a division title. If they players can simply find a way to score we can all score (some more than others perhaps) a win tonight. My hope is that I do not have to force myself to watch a shittily played game tomorrow morning solely to be able to comment on it but rather have a great game to watch to look back at in a few weeks and say that's where it got better. To all my friends my wife asks that you do not text me about the game tonight as we will be spending time together without the kids which is very rare for us. Ironically tonight I will be going to see The Dilemma and hopefully it will be the last dilemma to talk about here until June.
