In regards to Maroon - too slow for the system would be my first guess? GMJR wants a LWer with better wheels than that?
The system does not require speed. The system requires hard work.

Sorry, this is a doublewinder-esque question, but I just can't remember it happening despite absolutely watching this game...

Does anyone remember why Jean-Sebastien Aubin played for 54 seconds of game 6 of the 2001 Eastern Conference Semifinal against Buffalo? It's the game where Lemieux scores with like a minute left to send it to overtime, than Straka wins it (again) to force game 7...

I was at this game and have zero memory of Aubin coming in for 54 seconds. Maybe an equipment problem?

In 54 seconds, how many times could Aubin flop like a fish?

This is a great trivia question. I cannot find anything on Google.

I remember Aubin coming in late into the 3rd period. The National pbp guy gave an explanation but I cant remember what he said. My guess is the Pens didn't have a timeout and they used the goalie change to draw up a faceoff or a play.

My main memory of Aubin was the day Barrasso was traded to Ottawa. You couldn't knock the smile off of Aubin's face with a 2x4.

In my attempts to find mikey's answer an article about him being traded was the first thing to pop up. Dude was a real jerk.

In my experience, if you have *that* kind of emergency, no way you are done that quickly, and forget about cleaning up that fast. Unless it was the final 54 seconds of a period.

I send a tweet to JS Aubin asking him about it. His account only has 400 followers but it seems like it's really him.

You believe him? Moose had the poops. JSA isn’t going to throw him under the bus. Shad, reply and ask him if he’s sure Moose didn’t have the squirts.

You should have worked "mud slinging" into that comment instead of throw under the bus.
