Haha, wow. I guess we've all given up on this team after another disappointing free-agency period, the lockout, and years and years of puck-control boredom.

Sooo... Tootoo is entertaining, with his fight and trying to freight-train guys. He's the only reason I even put the games on in the background. Also entertaining is our laughable defensive situation - Kent Huskins, you're our hero

At least 30 games from now, when we're out of the playoff hunt, people will realize that Ken Holland is a hack GM who lucked himself into an organization that succeeded despite him.

I wouldn't count the team out just yet. I'm not saying a cup contender but they are better than people give them credit for.

I know Ken Holland isn't popular here because he doesn't sign fighters but seriously? hack GM. Holland has made some big moves that have put this team on the top of the NHL for many years. I wish he would sign more toughness as much as the next guy but saying he's a hack is just plain wrong.

For me it's not just the lack of fighters on the team. I can't for the life of me get behind anybody on this team, nobody is even remotely likeable. Sure Datsyuk is a real talent but does nothing for me.

Zetterberg looks like he is skating in mud, helm, clearly and guys like them make me vomit. So in short I really have no interest in this team for the first time in 25 years. It's been tough to watch for years, but now it is unbearable.
