"You'll just have to come to the game tomorrow and see who comes out of the tunnel first"
"It's awful hard to feel good about yourself if you're always being questioned"
- Rockin' Ronnie Wilson
Are you serious, Ron?
Folks, I'm tellin' ya, this man is going to drive himself wild if he can't accept his relationship with the media. The goaltending situation with the world's most scrutinized hockey club is a major issue these days. The fact constant questions about the keeper are throwing Wilson for a loop is not only a concern, it's troubling. A veteran of the biz should be able to maintain his cool as well as a workable comprehension of his surroundings. Whether mundane, monotonous, meaty or meaningful, questions about his keeper(s) will continue to hit, smack, whack and attack him until the riddle is solved. Perhaps his own frustrations with the incumbent are leaking through a rigid exterior that's on the verge of cracking? God, let's hope not. A media melt down in this town wouldn't go over well. Besides, it's way too soon for something like that; even for Ron Wilson in Toronto, a guy who's going to blow his stack eventually and in a place that certainly has it coming.
My choice vs Sens, Pens: Jonas Gustavsson
Rationale: Let Vesa Toskala work his way back into the line-up
I think he'll start Toskala. Seniority.
