O/K folks, just the first game(an ugly one at that), no need for speculation/trades. I am quite certain Coach Rumble will get them back on track - post haste.

The game was bad but there's way too much negativity. I think it was evident that alot of players had the gitters and nerves showing. The Cobham call was wrong. Should not have been a penalty whatsoever. I thought Dubeau was clearly shaky but I'm confident he'll turn things around rather fast. The defensive game was weak last night. Cape Breton were given too much room to work with and we didn't clog the passing lanes at all. We need to win the small battles and clear the front of the net. Sweeney was pretty solid , just wish he played with more of an edge. He`d be in an NHL camp right now if he threw the body and played physical. Holwell played a simple and steady game. Lukezic dosn't look like a physical presence like Shannon seemed to suggest. Look small and frail , certainly shied away from tension. Up front I thought Smith , Jacob , Olivier and Johnson all had good games. Our first line needs to find some chemistry. I'm not the biggest Lalonde fan either. Either way , it was game #1 and without oour two top forwards. No excuse but I think things will come together rather quickly.
