I hope this is good, especially with The Killing and Game of Thrones done Sunday. I just worry about TNT putting out a solid non-cheesy show. Then again, it's about the only thing going to be on TV for me till Breaking Bad starts in a month, and Weeds.

I've been slowly getting more and more excited for this show, but I'm keeping my expectations low (I've been burned too many times by sci-fi shows that either suck or that I get invested in only to have them cancled).

I read this article earlier that got me pretty pumped for the show http://io9.com/5812883/why-falling-skies-breaks-the-mold-of-alien-invasion-shows

Well, in regards to cancellation, at least it's on cable, where expected ratings aren't close to as high as network TV. At least on cable you usually get at least a full season.

That is true, TNT gave Dark Blue two seasons. It's hard the get cancelled on TNT after one season.

yeah it was done pretty well, there are a bit too many stereotypes in character and situations but the writing was really good and they managed to generate some scary moments.

Yeah the scene where his son (the scout) was in the river bank and then all the "mechs" start marching toward him was a pretty awesome.

      I agree that roster construction is a bigger issue than Rod.  I don't know what coach behind the bench is winning this series.  We weren't even supposed to compete this year, but people are mad because we're getting swept in the ECF again.  If we lost in 7 last round people wouldn't feel that way.

      And I won't even get into our forward lines... We have three legit forwards in aho, Svech, and Jarvis and a bunch of grinders. There is a reason why we have a hard time putting the puck in the net - nobody on this team knows how to shoot

      I was more inclined to say fire rod last year than this year. I still think we are lacking significant talent on this team. Without chatty, our defense has old man burns who is washed, ghostbear who is a one-way player, orlov who makes numerous awful turnovers each game, a solid walker, and slavin. I think we are all definitely mad that nikishin didn't play, but we weren't winning this game with them anyway. The entire team came out flat, which is inexcusable at home down a game. If rod couldn't fire them up, I don't think any coach in the NHL does.  Florida is the worst possible matchup for us because they play very similar to us but are better at doing it. It sucks we're going to get swept, but I honestly thought this team was a fringe at best playoff team once we traded away mikko
