Of all the Nucks losses this season, and there have been many, this was surely the most depressing. What was Willie's second intermission talk I wonder?

"OK guys you've got this in the bag, take it easy"

"Don't worry you'll be home soon, have a cup of hot chocolate"

"Why don't you all take a sleeping pill, it will relax you for the plane ride home"

"See if you can impersonate deer in the headlights, they might feel sorry for you"

Whichever one it was it seemed to work a treat.

Oh, and note to all refs: please, no more power plays for us.
