  2. Ep 120: To This Day, I Thought We Were Going to Win (2021/05/02)

May 3, 2021

This week in anguish:

- Alex Edler, Tyler Toffoli, Adam Gaudette, Jared McCann, and Gustav Forsling are whistle-stops on our hopefully one-time segment, The Bleakness. 

- The Virtanen situation confronts us with a bleakness of a very different sort. We're not quite sure what to say, but we give it our best shot.

- We retreat to the faded comforts of earlier travails and enjoy Ten Years After and, mostly, continued adorableness from Tom Larscheid.

- Ardella does yeoman duty both recounting the broad strokes of the '94 run and distilling our eventual downfall into a series of statistical musings, while Tristan just wanders around aimlessly, beginning most sentences with, "Wasn't it neat when Tom said..."

- How Could We Have Been So Forgetful of Jyrki's erstwhile playoff partner and the great we're sorry-we-rioted party of June 16?
