Good for Coach not taking any Sh*t !! 🐀
Who’s been evaluated tommorow that he mentions at the start?
Any time you want to add another true enforcer Zito, we're waiting. This should have been addressed immediately after the preseason, even WITH Gadj on the roster. He always gets hurt and eventually everyone else is going to get injured too, because Florida Panthers have the dirty team reputation, so it's going to keep inviting shenanigans like this to keep happening
Didn't Florida have 7 pps
