Rangers @ Leafs - Feb. 10th, 7:30pm - TSN4, TSN 1050

Useful, perhaps?

How useful do you expect a guy to look when he's getting less than 10 minutes of ice most nights? He's doing pretty much everything that's asked of him. He's not going to be a big offensive contributor. He is as useful as a 4th line winger can reasonably be expected to be.

I guess I mean he always looks good, and as if he's going to do something or score, and then he never does. He gets me every time.

I'd like a player who does more than nothing, even if he does it really, really well.

Booth strikes again!

[Stickytape]

Soccer-levels of diving, there. No call.

If you really think he's doing nothing, then you're not really paying attention.

Mike Santorelli the Carter Ashton of breakaways.

I was paying attention when he flubbed that odd man rush. I've seen enough. But keep defending a guy with 3 points in 50 games.

If you really expect significant offensive contributions from a 8-10 minute 4th liner, then you're never going to be satisfied. 3 points in the 31 games is really about what should be expected.

I mean, I'm all tank-tank and everything, but that?  FFS.

Bad goal from Reimer.  The "top line" continues to suck.

When you play poorly as a team, bad things happen.

So true.  And by the same token, when you play richly as a team, good things happen.

100% of nothing...

If you were really all tank-tank then that goal would be your screen saver.

That SHG began with Kessel losing a puck battle to Kreider. I guess one shouldn't expect Kessel to win that battle, but where was the help?
