To be honest, I'm really sick of people blaming the Vegas trip on a loss...

Had the Hawks won, everyone would be talking about how great it was for the team.

Here's the thing though, in a time where the game has changed where guys do less away from the rink with each other, a two day event with the team does nothing but positives for the them in the long run (baring any illegal activities). So yeah, they came out with a loss after that trip. Big fucking deal. It's one game and I'm not so much sure that going to Vegas for two days, then having another day to recover is the real reason they lost.

What happens in Vegas stays in Minnesota? Has a horrible ring to it.

Ledge jumpers gunna ledge jump Trev. We see it every year when the Hawks have a bad game or play .500 hockey or below for a little period.

This is what happens when Football fans who don't understand 82 game seasons start writting blogs about hockey or twittery tweeting.

Whatever sells papers I guess, yet it just makes Potash look dumb.

Here is the thing, with a road trip like that you have to have something to break up the thing or people are going to start hating each other. I have no problem with the road trips. Of course I hate when they lose but I have no problem with it, we know what this team is and that they are going to lose some. No one wins them all. Let them kick back every once in a while they on track to finish near the top of the conference.

One game means jack shit. If you can go out and absolutely rip it with teammates and have a great time, go do it. I certainly would. Team bonding is horribly underrated. Take me out to a club and buy a few lap dances for me and I'll skate through a fucking wall for you. Hell, I'll throw down with Carcillo, even in men's league. :lol:
