Ok Wilderness, it's clearly time to pack it in. Two games in a row where it looked like the effort was simply not there for 60 minutes, as has been the biggest problem all season. I can't hold Richards or Fletcher accountable. It's not their fault. They are trying to fix what was broken, and frankly have done a very solid job in turning this thing around, but it's a multi-season job.
Look at New Jersey, you can see there that it was never Lemaire's fault. To quote Bud Adams, "He can take his'n and beat your'n and take your'n and beat his'n."
Nash is everything you want in an NHL player. Big, strong on his skates, brutally tough with the puck, can score in traffic, can create his own shot, skates well, plays physically, doesn't talk himself up, makes people around him better and is as good in the clutch as anyone in the league. Most importantly, he isn't a primadonna. You never hear him in controversy, he's never on the Wheel of Justice and he's the kind of guy who harkens back to a time gone by.
Ahh, if only.
