  1. I must have missed the part where we had possession long enough to dump it in ha
  2. I'm not much of a fancy stats guy but I can't help but notice that our DPISS (d-zone pass into skates) is currently only being surpassed by our GBO (garbage break out quotient)
  3. Didn’t hear much from little Mitch and the porn stache these past two games. Props to the Horvat line, they did a hell of a job when matched up against them.
  4. Not a knock on their play tonight, more a comment on their ability to score when we need it
  5. The first couple of rounds we got to enjoy of the "covid cup" last summer were fun, but it was painfully obvious when we played a real contender that this teams core wasn't ready to push yet. Therefore, it made some sense to me when we cut Marky and Tanev loose with a goal in mind of being ready a year or two more down the road. That being said, 9 years for a GM to return a franchise in a Canadian market to competitiveness is going to put him in the crosshair's, regardless of the context (Sedin years, etc.). And I still can't believe we let Toffoli walk when you consider his age, and the price and term he ended up signing at.
  6. These look like they were brought to us by the same Einstein's who thought primer was an actual paint color. No thanks
  7. I'm so done with Roussel. I get why they signed him, they were hoping he would be Dorsett 2.0. Trouble is, he isn't good enough to carry Derek's jock strap. His incessant lack of discipline kills us every time. If Greener loves him so much he can go with him, the khl needs plugs like these
  8. Through 2 periods we outplayed and out chanced the Oilers. So Green goes back to old lines. Makes sense
  9. You just know that this team will go on a run in the last 10 games, crawling out of a lottery position ala 2018
  10. Where's the option to hire Tortorella and "break up the country club mentality"?
  11. Professional athletes are nothing more than high priced horse flesh to these organizations. Remember that the next time you feel like complaining when they exercise their contractual rights.
  12. It would seem you are right, not to mention the myriad of other tax agreements between the 2 countries etc.
  13. JB has a lot of blood on his hands but one thing people always neglect to consider when it comes to FA signings- BC has one of the most punitive tax rates for NHL level salaries- you have to pay extra to get them to come
  14. He’s got his shot back for sure. Brutal defensively, but his line mates share some of that blame
  15. Impossible to say without being in the room if the problem is the planning or the execution. I’m not loving Greens comments about our team not being good enough to chase games though, that sends a terrible message to the guys.
