Well, that was fun.
One period gone here between the Komets-Wings, and Kevin Hansen's prediction after last Saturday night's fracas ("To be continued") has proved prophetic. Eight fighting majors were dished out in the first period, including four in the last four seconds plus a heavyweight bout between Kevin Bertram and Jordan Little after time had expired.
Unfortunately, the Komets are getting hit in the mouth in more ways than one. They're down 3-1, have only four shots on goal and look like a team that's playing its third game in 72 hours. In other words, they've got Skating In Mud disease.

I'm glad it was you that said it Jared. I do like alot of what you comment on so I respect your opinion.
Lets be a little honest here. There is more activity after a loss. The is more traffic after a poor performance. There is more "he stinks" than " he played great". When you yell "fire", everyone comes running. Sadly those are the facts. I find it tough to swallow when people throw the team under the bus, people who cannot defend themselves on a public forum.
My own weakness is I get to harsh sometimes when there is ignorance involved. I support this team through thick and thin but I need to do a better job turning a deaf ear to the nonsense. Let the readers disect it for themselves.

youre big problem scoops is that its not your job to tell us whos ignorant or not. this is a place for opinions and you need to tell us why you differ and back it up but you usually attack the blogger and that instantly turns most people off. im not always right but i try to offer insight of a coach and player but other than cold hard facts, most of it is personal opinion so why does it matter where i sit or how much i spend/? GOT NOTHING TO DO WITH MY OPINIONS and it should have nothing to do with your rebutals. go ks, heal up soon brent!

The $40 seat again? It has nothing to do with anything. I would of thought you would of figured out where I got that from. LOL
In all honesty, opinion is free flowing here and its the least of the problems. I thought venting was more an issue. How may times has a big fight ensued because Jane, Dick, or Sally ran home and just posted rants after rant on the board immediately after game? I wanted to see this. I didn't. I'm upset. You have a hard time convicing me those are opinion based comments. That is venting frustration. Venting is fine. You just shouldn't take it to a personal level towards the players.
