Our tickets are available if you want to buy PSK a beer.
They're also available if you don't want to buy him a beer. But why would you not want to buy him a beer?

I think my only response to this mess is this:

My expectations are purely McQuaidian.

Also your "Butch" Cassidy joke is way better than the one I had.

Cassidy's lines:

63-37-42
39-46-88
72-51-11
59-28-20

Bergy and Marchand get a whirl dragging Backes' carcas around. I'd like to see Cehlarik get a look in Schaller's spot.

I image Cassidy will keep Spooner at center for the rest of the season since he developed Spooner as a center in Providence. That won't be pretty in the defensive zone.

Are the Sharks already in town? If not. Are they going to be able to fly in?

SJS last trip East, and then the B's play Saturday and Sunday so there aren't many options other than playing tonight.

The 3/27 option after SJS is @Nashville on 3/25 would involve a cross-country flight on 3/28 for SJS to play the Rangers at home.

Not much else outside of an if-they-need-it game after 4/8

So the NWS has issued a Blizzard Warning until 8 PM tonight. Clode gets fired and we get our first big snow of the year. Thanks Obama Sweeney!

Assuming this game isn't canceled, look out for these tonight (they are admittedly terrifying)

If I hadn't already pledged not to give them another dime, I'd definitely have tried to go tonight. Will not be a lot of people in there.

Chara out, Cehlarik a scratch per Cassidy.

Not sure what the D will look like without Z, but the forwards appear to be

Marchand - Bergeron - Backes
Beleskey - Krejci - Pastrnak
Vatrano - Spooner - Hayes
Schaller - Moore - Nash

Far be it for me to defend Gary Bettman, but canceling games in inclement weather is pretty rare. Both teams were here, there are no common dates later in the season if they did postpone, and public transportation is running. They've offered ticket holders the option to exchange tickets for a game later in the season if they can't attend due to the weather.

Liles and Colin Miller paired tonight in Chara's absence, terrifying on the defensive end.

In-arena video stuff still referred to Claude as the coach. Looks like the person supposed to update that got snowed out.

Also, I took the commuter rail in and had no problems now that the heavy stuff has stopped.

Emptiest I've ever seen it for a game though.
