Lombardi Q&A
I just got a call from Dean Lombardi, much earlier than I expected, but I think I did a fair job of getting to most of the topics that have been popular on this blog: whether the team is meeting expectations, the overall execution of his ``plan,'' free-agent disappointments, Crawford/line shuffling, goaltender performance, Bernier, Cloutier, Bryzgalov, Armstrong, lack of toughness, lack of secondary scoring, etc. It's a LONG interview so most likely I'll have to break it into a few different posts. I'll get going on that ASAP.

You THE MAN Rich!!!
Thanks Rich, I love reading these interviews, for some odd reason, I actually feel better about the team after reading Lombardi's interviews even though our record isn't what I hoped it would be at this point. To be positive, at least we're not as bad as last year.
Great job getting us information that for years was unavailable. You are much appreciated.
Great interview Rich. Thanks for all the work on here.
