All we need is the best goalie in the world to paper over all the deficiencies those moves created! Wilson just absolutely bullied the entire Rangers roster, and that's not what's happening here. After all there are really only a handful of players that can hold their own physically with Wilson, and I'm not sure any of them can play.

The more I think about Kadri the more the shoe fits for Claude Lemieux. Let's just call the collision...controversial for the moment. Refuses to scrap with Schenn to basically put a bow on the issue. He's obviously still in the Blues head at that moment, and does well to stay there. Draws 5 on 3 leading directly to his own second goal. That is pure Claude Lemieux to me. Punk move after punk move that removes opponent's focus, then backs it up by pumping in a hat trick. I don't think Kadri is as calculated in all this stuff as Lemieux was, but in terms of the opponent reaction and results on ice, that's the fit for what he's done for me.

Rarely a Cup is won without the contribution of dick players. It's one of the key ingredients.

This team is missing one or two ornery son-of-a-bitches who scare the other team enough to keep them honest.

Our best 2 shit disturbers happen to be our coaches in both Ott and Berube. And that ain’t good enough - ha

Before game 5 started I told my bro "we have Berube and Ott as coaches but a team full of Mike Yeo's"
