Sam has to stop saying "just" wide when Trouba shoots

Yeah same. But he's also growing on me as a 2nd liner like a bad fungus

Pffft, you're a husband and a dad. You can multi-task

At some point u start to think this team isntrollikgvits fan base

Nah. No one says Strome is a bad hockey player. Just tag, he takes dumb penalties too and isn't a long term answer, just like your boy Tony. But we agree to disagree. :cheers:

Sounds line ADA syndrome

Strome is an EN goal away from a Strome hat trick

That’s what she said !

Atta boy Strome

Ugly AF but I’ll take it

Yeast !

Holy shit the old ADA buries that

Zero confidence out there

Maybe ziby should think about cutting that flow

Honestly I just got home so was that the first shift or has it been like that all game? it only works if there is traffic in font and the point shoots

Just home. Did Quinn read the board when we said just put two puck moving d on pp1?

It's not even just about being patient. It's about having realistic expectations and at some point taking the kid gloves off and holding some responsibility. Last year we were awarded a playoff spot when we were right there. Those were words i belive DQ said, "Right there." We've take a major step back. But not just a step back, but a step into what we looked like back early last year where we would win 2, lose 3, win 2 lose 4 type of yo-yo. We thought we turned a corner with that late February display that was mostly positive then sputtered into early March back to y-yo'ing. This is supposed to be turning the corner on that behavior, not looking like the same lost team one day and lights out another. I don't even want to hear those excuses anymore about covid, no fans, no training camp, etc. It's an even playing field for everyone. We look like the Ottawa Senators out there and they would KILL for our roster. KILL. I'm not going to go out and say we are a Ferrari of a team or anything but we certainly have a lot of looks of a high end sports car being driving by someone that just got their learners permit.

Never wish injury on anyone. If anything, it means when he's healthy they likely plug him back in since most coaches don't let injuries be the end all be all to why they lose their job.

Nice! Good to see you finally scored a ps5. Crazy there still is a shortage. Ghosts of Tsushima looks amazing on ps5 if u haven’t already played it

For the record, if they win 3 of their next 4 I still think Quinn isn’t the answer because by seasons end we will still see these long rollercoaster stretches

That’s my concern as well. If we are 15 games in and season is over, that conversation of Quinn NOT being the guy better be head because I want the next 40+ games to be with the next coach to establish our future, not a ho hum we gotta be better Quinnless attitude and different rules for the fave five.

I get part of that but I mean a winning culture also breeds confidence and plenty of superstars have had mentors along the way. Panarin himself, albeit 23 when he came in, came into a team with Kane and Toews already there. The problem is our current big guys are playing very very small. It’s not really that ALF and Kakko aren’t allowed to be themselves. Last year Kakko was horrid. His foot speed, decision making, and analytics weren’t a product because Artemi was keeping him down. I get it, Howden isn’t the ideal linemate to help develop but the lesser matchups and pressure should theoretically be just as beneficial. I think you need the right coach though. When things aren’t going well it shows even moreso. I don’t think they bring back Kreider either if they knew they had ALF but it is what it is. That still shouldn’t be looked at as something negative though Not now. If we are going to be a bottom dwelling team though then it definitely is a problem but I don’t think we overachieved last year. This is a team with a very good roster lol. If you took Quinn and replaced him with many coaches around the NHL I think it would make a huge difference. I truly honestly believe that.

Gallant, Bylsma, Babcock, Boudreau are the four available names really

Fungi grows I think

Why did they unviel a third and wear it first day when we normally take 3 months to do that lol
