    Whatever. You're a glass half empty guy; some of us are glass half full guys. And I've always wondered what it means when a fan says that a loss is not acceptable. So if you don't accept the loss does that mean it didn't happen? Or that you're going to do something about it? (And if you are, what is that?)

    Bitch all you want; that's what fan forums are for. But, criticizing others for seeing something positive in the program seems a little peevish. What did Oscar Wilde say? "Some cause happiness wherever they go; others whenever they go."  

    Who did I criticize? Go ahead and reread what I wrote. I very clearly said that I think this team is way better than a "well at least they worked hard" team. If that makes me a glass half empty person, then yikes.

    The problem with your "fan" response is it misses the point he was making--the team is much better this year. And yes that is something to celebrate. Not only are they competing on the road, they're frequently winning on the road. So, a loss tonight is not good, but the fight in the team is good for the long view. They're much better and they're going to get even better than this, so there is much room for optimism. Yay for optimism. 

    Having watched every single game this year, this team is much better than a team who should just have their effort applauded. The standards for this program need to rise and these ladies have earned enough respect for that to happen. Watching them lose a game tonight that they were in control of is not acceptable and claiming "well at least we're competing" is selling them short.

    Omg

    where did that come from

    this is a team that was terrible until very recently. road games were a rout

    criticize is your right but imo cheap shot 
     

    Calling you out for being content with a moral victory is a cheap shot? Yikes.

    What the heck is wrong with some people.  Even someone who knows nothing about any sport at all especially hockey should know you never mention the shut out until it is complete.  This should be taught in broadcast school also as an announcer mentioning the shut out before the game is over is even more unacceptable.

    But the shutout was complete. So obviously the jinx doesn't exist.

    Anyone in the know on league protocol for issuing supplemental discipline for 5 minute majors? Does the league review every 5 minute major that’s called or could the CC coach have politicked the league to take a closer look at the play to determine whether additional punishment was warranted? -I haven’t had a chance to see replay of the hit so not aware if the extra game suspension is warranted or not. 

    The league reviews every major penalty. 

    The hit did warrant an extra game.
