Everything with them is slow and deliberate. They never really even had a GREAT chance on that. Embarrassing. But please prod, keep telling me how wonderful this team is. Hahaha
Bylsma drew for the sabres how to defend while our coach was standing there and changing his gum flavor.
lol AV can't even get the right guys on the ice. Come on now. Can't be serious with this guy as the coach.
Just burn the rest of this dude's contract. What joke this guy has become. Does he even do anything anymore.
What a shitty game. Started with Queen Henrik letting in shit... This team is looking more like a first round exit every game
This team refuses to make it to the playoffs. They really aren't deserving of it either. Hey, maybe they can beat Columbus Monday. You know Torts and Dubi will be trying their best to make sure that doesn't happen though.
I just want to know how you have 8 guys on the ice and have no clue who to take off, and then 7 and STILL have no clue who to take off or what's going on. That is the season in a nutshell. Disorganization from the head coach down.
I dont recall saying in my post this team is wonderful. Sorry if I missed it but could you point it out for me? I actually thought it was putrid, nothing wonderful about it. The offense, the defense, the coaching, the announcing, even the water boy was putrid tonight. Let's see how they come out on Monday, I am expecting a bounce back and will be rooting for them to win.
You know what frustrated me most about that game...the awful full 2 minute 5 on 3 where we got 1 maybe 2 shots, and not close to even a decent scoring chance let alone a very good scoring chance. That was ridiculous. I am used to the poor play in their own zone and leaving guys wide open and struggling to get the puck out, BUT that PP was comical. Couldn't ask for a better chance to tie the game, and we don't get a sniff. To not get 3rd we most likely need to lose out, which I don't see, so I believe we will finish 3rd and open at the Pens, but right now it is really difficult to think we would win that series or even take it 7 games. Only positive spin maybe you can put on things is these past two games were so utterly pathetic that maybe it wakes them up. Clearly the only shot this team has is to do a 180 from most of what we have seen this season, and maybe these awful performances will wake them up. At this point 78 games in I doubt it, but it's all we can hope for.
All we can hope for Prod. I wouldn't bet on it at this point, you figured after the crap at Carolina you would see that tonight and we didn't, but you have to remain hopeful...otherwise you have nothing. I would like to see McIlrath play on Monday night...why not. Guys are wide open in front of our net all the time, might as well get him back in there and see if he can help tighten up the D...lord knows Boyle can use the break.
