Time to get healthy on offense today with the return of the kreider monster. I hate 1:00 starts during football season
No Dylan again. This is my take on him. We know what Boyle brings, which is experience but also slow feet, weak in the dzone and penalties because he's too old. We really don't know what Dylan brings yet. He isn't getting a fair shot. I'd like to see him get to play 3-4 straight games to get into a groove and play the same minutes Boyle would play. If he's just going to sit in the stands, then trade him and bring Diaz back because it's worthless to keep a young player like that who needs to learn how to play not playing and in the stands. It's just idiotic what we're seeing here. These are the games early on in the season where you want to see what your young guys can bring.
Really shitty effort by us today. Slow to the puck, regardless of what Joe says, slow to make decisions with the puck, forcing stupid passes, making all sorts of bad decisions with the puck, not putting the puck on goal when they have a chance. Overall a completely disappointing effort by this team today and over the last few games. They're falling into a lot of bad habits that they had last year, notably of waiting for the puck to get to them instead of going to the puck, and passing up shots to make cute passes which are then intercepted.
Once again these assclowns can't finish. Especially Hayes. He spends more time playing with himself than he does shooting. He needs to get a clue.
It's a bad habit this ENTIRE team has. Instead of throwing pucks on goal in an effort to get some rebounds they pass and pass and try to make a cute pass and look for the perfect shot. Has been an issue with this team for a few years now.
I've never seen us lose so many board battles before. We look like this is the second game of a back to back. Tomorrow night is going to be awful if this is the effort today.
I'm really starting to think we need to trade Staal. His patented kneel and poke instead of hit a guy off the puck is insane. Opposing teams know what he's going to do because he's not physical. I'd love to trade him for a top 6 winger. And then trade Nash for a defenseman. Done and done. Nash is playing like a fourth line player and his pussyness has spread to Kreider and soon will pass to Hayes. Nash has taught Kreider to not go to the net, and he's going to teach the same shit to Hayes. Get rid of him. Kreider used to go right to the net all the time, now he stays outside just like Nash always does. If Hayes starts this, then it's all over.
I think you can. Just need to find the right team that needs defense. He's still a top 3 dman. He just is useless for us. He's too soft. He'd be a good fit in Edmonton. Not familiar enough with who they have to get back though.
If Arneil makes it out of November on this staff with this PP not improving, then I give up with this team ever being a real true threat to win a Cup.
This is a fucking embarrassment. Seriously. How is it that AV can sit there and look at Arneil and allow him to have a job? I also blame the shitty PP on AV because at some point as the coach AV has to look at Arneil, call him out, and then look for him to be replaced. Instead he's allowing Arneil to kill this team. Our PP gives the other team momentum. It's ludicrous.
No one timers. No movement without the puck. No decisive decision making by the point men. Just a bunch of half assed play.
Told you Devils would win. This team didn't deserve to win. Fuck Arneil. This franchise deserves every loss try get so long as that loser is behind the bench.
LOL...94, you are going a bit overboard here in game 6 of the season. No reason to get nuts yet. They suck every year in October/November.
