  1. And of course just frustrate us even more because Perron's returnbisn't going to mean we're going finally play well again. Same thing happens each year in different looking forms.

  2. The league sucks. Something has to change.
    Start with Bettman, has he got no boss?
    He’s a corrupt dictator man, strike until he’s replaced and vote on the replacement’

    Trash teams like Ottawa can’t be allowed to flourish, the culture is criminal!

  3. If DOPS doesn’t shape up soon we will see another lockout soon. Like larks said, it’s hard to know what’s safe anymore on the ice.

  4. Sweet, welcome back DP. You WERE missed along the boards and on the PP. Let's go boys, let's get this win, and move on from this slump. LFGRW!

  5. This schedule has been brutal, they look exhausted on the ice. I think rest is the biggest thing they need to get right. I love how no one is using this as an excuse. I think the coach could have called up reinforcements from GR and cycled some guys out here and there to keep fresh during this stretch.. maybe it’s not that easy but LaLonde did say they had this part of the schedule circled since the start of the season. Why didn’t he get guys rest before and during then?

  6. 6 games was a lot compared to other suspensions, the problem is that the other suspensions were too light, not that this one was too harsh. Yeah yeah, stick up for your teammates, blah blah blah. But it is never a bad thing to be in control of yourself.

  7. Met Perron at the grocery store a few months ago. Dude was cool af. Love his attitude. We need to break out of this slump, I feel alot better with him back. At this point though, I’m annoyed everytime Lalonde speaks.

  8. I'm "GRATEFUL" Perron is back in for tonight's game! …I thought he might have gotten another one game suspension for unsportsmanlike conduct against Daniella at the 4:27 mark of this interview…wheeew! GO WINGS!

  9. Getting arrested for assault with a deadly weapon may have been a tad much. But 6 games was very fair. If that had happened to a Red Wing player, the fans would not have been happy with only 6 games.

  10. Way to be accountable David. I agree with protecting your captain, but a blindside crosscheck to to the back of someone's head (who had nothing to do with the play), with intent to injure?. Quit your whining, shut up and move on. Doubling down on mistakes is the new norm.

  11. Miss you Perron! Also if I hear Lalonde mention anything about the underlying numbers during a bad loss I'm gonna start questioning him. Starting to sound like Ottawa's DJ with "the bounces aren't going our way"

  12. Proud of Perron for standing up for himself and saying he still disagrees with the harsh punishment. The league gives who they deem "Superstars" lesser punishment for the same offenses. All about revenue for the league. DP has ZERO history of this kind of behavior.
