Shades of Seguin in Winnipeg.

Guessing this has been building for a bit and it’s not an isolated incident.

Thats extremely disappointing. I thought with Butch gone he would respond -- and did for awhile -- but this tends to support the "its structural in his psyche" argument and "he's the hockey version of Verdugo". I guess the next step is "trade him at the deadline" talk. Sorry I even mentioned that!

We need Jake's ability to score goals in the lineup. Monty is doing what he has to do.

Trying to be optimistic that it's a team rule that if you are late to a game day meeting you sit, regardless of why. Hope it's just a harmless mistake and they move on

I somehow doubt this torpedoes the season. Probably just a wake-up call.

IDK about that first line though. What exactly is Lucic going to be doing out there?
Hoping this is just one game. Fluto 2 days ago had these lines and I wonder if this will hold for the next game:

Marchand-Zacha-Pastrnak
Van Riemsdyk-Coyle-Frederic
DeBrusk-Poitras-Geekie
Lucic-Beecher-Lauko

Debrusk has still looked engaged in games without a ton of offensive chances, so hopefully this was just a lapse, and he is good to go going forward.

DeBrusk has always struggled with professionalism...here's hoping the dim light goes on in his brain when Monty is scratching him

Jumping through the pregame, they talked about Jake and it looks like people were reading too much into it. He missed a meeting, it's the team's rule, no one is above the rules, so he sits. Yeah they could be covering up for the team, but in that regard if there was an actual issue they probably would have made some vague comments about it

Like the fire from Beecher at the end of that play when the Kings guy went after him... nothing stupid, but also I'm not going to take shit from you

I’m liking Beecher quite a bit to start the year. He’s looking a quality bottom six center with a bit of sandpaper to his game. Be really nice if he turned into a long term low key contributor to the team
