Far from a solid entire game, the confidence created was little at best. I could hear the air leaving the tank during the end of the 3rd period.

Totally agree on Marleau. Thorton’s playing well…now that HOCKEY and not fighting is his first priority.

The only way they shake off the criticism is with a Cup. Anything short of that reinforces the fact that they remain an underperforming group.
