What a bunch of crybabies on this board.

It's 4 games. They haven't had Hagelin once. They haven't had Nash twice. They are playing a new system. I don't care if they lose 6-0 or 2-1. It's a loss. It looks the same in the standings.

I haven't watched too much because the games are so late. However, I'm no longer attached to the idea of keeping MDZ here. This is a system he should flourish in and he hasn't shown anything so far. Again, it's only 4 games but he is a player I expected to see some immediate improvement with offensively. I'm getting the idea that MDZ is dumb when it comes to the sport of hockey.

 

Perhaps we are "crybabies" because we are cranky staying up till 1am watching out beloved team suck so bad...I know I'm very cranky.

Spare us the drama dump. It has nothing to do with being crybabies, or being positive, or negative, or up, or down or anything else. Here is the bottom line, the team has played like a pile of trash so far. From pre-season right through the start of the regular season. That is the bottom line. Any other words you want to use knocking your fellow posters, go for it, you always do, but it doesn't change the fact that this team has been awful so far through the pre-season and 4 games of the regular season.

15-2 over the last 6 periods. 15-1 outscored since we scored 1st against the Sharks. YES at days end a win is a win and a loss is a loss, but when you get destroyed 15-2 over two games you take notice of that and say something is clearly wrong here.

With that said, it is just 4 games, there are 78 left to go. A lot of time to fix this and move forward, but that still doesn't change the fact that right now we are where we are, and that is pathetic through 4 games.

As for DZ, I am sorry but your stance is funny to me. You and I have gotten into many battles the past few years over this guy. He needed to go 2 or 3 years ago. He needs to go now. The guy is a froot loop, and you just said it yourself. He is up and down. He still cannot shoot. He floats in and out of games. Enough is enough. I will say what I have said for YEARS on this guy, maybe he will get it at some point, I will not sit here and say he will never be a very good NHL player because he may become one, but let someone else wait for it to happen. That has been my stance on him for years, and it is still the same today. Hopefully Sather is working the phones now to move this guy. And this year there is even more urgency IMO because he will want a longer bigger money deal this summer, and no way do we give him one IMO.

Overall, let's not all argue here. No need to come back with some post calling everyone names like you enjoy doing. The bottom line is the team has been terrible so far right from the start of camp. They have been outscored 15-2 over the past two games. They need to get their sh*t together ASAP. With useless Pyatt and Boyle in the top 9 it will not be easy, but we'll see if they can do it. That is all there is to say at this point. Knocking other posters won't change where we are right now. Thankfully we have a long way to go, and time to get this thing right.

 

I think you guys are over playing this. It wasn't that bad in here at all. Most people had a good laugh at the garbage we are seeing right now. I didn't see anyone say oh the season is over. Sell the whole team. Pack it up. I think most people are simply saying we have been terrible so far this season, including the pre-season, and we need to get MUCH better. Not sure what is so crazy or outrageous about that 31. That is 1000000% the truth. 15-2 in the last two games. That is real.

 

I guess we can come on here and pretend these games aren't being played, and we haven't been terrible. Or we can say there are 78 games left so who cares what we do now. If you feel that way, why don't you just sit out the season until there are 15 or so games left, and then we can have discussions about where the team is at when the season is almost done. All games count.

Of course there are many games left to play, so no panic, but we need to get much better, that is clear so far. Let's hope they do it.

 

Get through the road trip with 4 wins

Looks pretty difficult at this point

 

I felt 2-7 or 3-6 tops all along. I will stand by that.

 

I agree your non-sense looks foolish, so stop 31. It is what it is man. You are so passive aggressive it is comical. You are mister nothing matters. Who cares if they lose this game. Who cares if they lose that game. Who cares if they were terrible in pre-season. Who cares if they were embarrassed in two straight games and have been outscored 15-1 since the 1-0 lead at SJ. Nothing matters. They will get better. Give it a rest man.

Of course they will get better from what we have seen the past two games, it would literally be impossible for them not to get better, but what I am talking about, and I think so is everyone else outside of your games, is how much better. Can they be a top level team with a chance to go far? That is what this is all about. So I stand by my we'll see about that. That is what I am talking about, not whether or not they get better from the trash we have seen through the pre-season and the first 4 games.

And again, no one is off the deep end on this board, I think people are simply being honest. We have played like garbage since camp opened. We need to be MUCH better. That is all I am seeing. I haven't see anyone really saying oh the world is over. The season is done after 4 games. So get it straight 31 and stop seeing what you want to see as usual.

 

The pre-season doesn't mean much. But the pattern of crappy play started there. It has continued right into the regular season. That is my only point in mentioning the pre-season. Bad play started there. Bad habits started there. It started the downturn. We need to get ourselves out of that ASAP. That is why I mention the pre-season. Of course it means nothing, we all know that, but it certainly can start a bad pattern if issues carry over into the regular season, and in this case sadly they have.

On the team, we will get better from what we have seen, no doubt. But I want DZ gone so bad. I am simply done and fed up with his game. Up and down. In and out. I am tired of seeing it year after year and game after game. Please move him soon Sather. Enough is enough with him.

 

We'll agree to disagree there 31. The final score and results don't matter, but I like to see the main guys playing well. I like to see Lundy playing well. None of that happened. Bad habits can set in. Bad feelings can set in. Who needs it. So we'll agree to disagree.

But the bigger point is WHO CARES. We are discussing pre-season. Whether I, or anyone, thinks the bad vibes started there is irrelevant. We are where we are now after 4 regular season games, plaing like crap, and we need to be much better. That should be the focus. Not whether you, or anyone, agree or disagree about the role pre-season played in this start. Who cares about that. We are where we are.

 

Say that to Peter Laviollete

 

getting schlacked in back to back games is nothing to sneeze at....will the team get better...one would have to say yes..but does that mean getting better is now losing 3 to 1 instead of 9-2. It doesn't help that it is the beginning of the season in which the fan base was ready for change, excited for change....and to see ....well...see this CRAP..not to mention the fan base having to stay up till 1am watching this crap doesn't make for happy people the following day(s)

 

what am I missing here..the win against LA wasn't that dominating at all...
