Torts sends message to big Brian Boyle

"before Senators forward Chris Neil's dirty hit put him down with a concussion in Game 5."

I dislike Neil as much as the next guy, but no.

I think the lack of camp and preseason is affecting him....just like it is everyone else....
Some guys adjust faster

Need to stop using the "lack of preseason" excuse.....everyone is in the same boat..mental mistakes (a d there has been plenty) have nothing to do with preseason .....the trade was a good move ..Powe will definitely help..and I'm super psyched to see what J.T. Miller can do..

I believe the point I was making was that everyone is in the same boat...I suppose I could have been clearer....I tell you what though, Boyle certainly hasn't been the worst of it on this team...

There's plenty of blame to go around. Roles aren't being played by the guys who are supposed to be playing them.

But Boyle hasn't been at his best.

Agree...It's been a collective effort in the meltdowns.....just really need to see them play well against the good teams.....need to send a message tonight....

I don't even think it's real meltdowns, it's the momentary lapses...and that may be the problem. I do see a lot of one step up, a different one back as I watch.
But where the consistent problem HAS been is ironically in the defence.
And Gaborik also looks lost sometimes. I was at the Pittsburgh game (my mother has since told me that I am not allowed to go to anymore games. She is a huge Rangers fan also) and he looked aimless a lot of the night.

This explains many of your idiosyncrasies

LOL - love the Three Fingers of Fury imagery. Sounds like an old Bruce Lee movie.

Bruce Lee needed to use his fists. Torts only needs three fingers.

Honestly! How hard can it be to copy and paste a different picture of the New Irk? Do they know how or, is their skill level limited to finding just one picture and then setting it as the default picture till kingdom come?

I can see the tagline for the movie - They came to play hockey, but first they had to pass the Three Fingers of Fury test!!!

They thought they were there to play hockey but they didn't know about the Three Fingers of Fury
