Last year, they had "goon by committee" b/c w/the new rules, you can't really just carry one dude who does nothing but fight. Jeremy Stevenson & Nathan Perrott pretty much did the job, but I don't really think either of them will be around next season. Ott will certainly step up when called upon. Hatch was good back when his knees weren't constantly falling apart. In retrospect, it was a good move not sign him before the lockout.
I see the Rangers did about as well as the Mavs tonight. Wave goodbye to first place. That's depressing on a night like this.
