Double Overtime Game Lost Thanks to Coach Bylsma’s Prevent Defense

Dee Karl: Isles Can Beat the Pens, But Not the Officials

However, something went wrong and when he went to answer his first post game question, a long, loud electronic screech filled the 60,000 square foot exhibit hall and it reverberated to your bones. “That was like the building tonight.” the deadpan Bylsma...

I’m not completely sold that adding Iginla to the roster is all it’s cracked up to be, but that conversation has already happened in an earlier post, and the deal is already done.
