Considering our first unit wasn't playing well at all it's nothing I'd be whining to no end about. I do agree he needs to not sit on his timeouts for so long though. 

It’s a first unit for a reason 

 

a coach needs to read the pulse of the game and we had no pulse at that point

WD = Green 

 

when we hired Green many on here agreed that we were rebuilding and that there was no need to hire a top tier coach at that point in the rebuild 

 

we’ll now it’s time 

Again, revisionist history from you re:Green. 
 

He was fresh off a Calder Cup finals appearance as the AHL coach ready to make the next step to the NHL.

Elephant in the room: EP40 hasn’t been effective at even strength; Boeser even less so.

 

EP40’s issue is all physical. He gets outmuscled a lot and tends to fall down when under a heavy check. The effort is still there, it’s just a matter of putting on weight over time.

 

Boeser makes Kyle Wellwood look like a HoFer when it comes of urgency/effort, on the other hand. Dude just floats the entire game. The sad part is you sometimes get a glimpse of his rookie season here and there, but it seems like he’s just content on being a decent 25-30 goal winger. Shoulda taken Konecny...

Boeser’s defensive play has improved a lot since his rookie season, he’s never been an outstanding or fast skater, not buying what you’re selling.

 

They both had a poor game tonight though.

Lol. Putting out Leivo and Pearson will be a guaranteed loss. Everybody’s playing poorly but at least if you throw out other forwards with talent then there’s actually more of a possibility of something actually happening. 

Pearson was put out cos Green saw that the net was empty, and he is our en specialist ... but he didn't realize it was our own net

I would rather bank on line 1 waking up vs plugs somehow miraculously learning how to be stars and score 

Sometimes playing the “plugs” is just the message that needs to be sent. Especially when a team is struggling 5 on 5.

I am starting to wonder about the fitness level of our team. We had a day off between games and we looked pathetic 

 

have the players been getting into Green’s twinkies? 


this team needs a serious bag skate 

 

Not in the middle of a grinding 6 game road trip even if they all deserved it.

We should make sure Sutter and Juolevi are in the bag skate eh?
