Good point ! Although, Bo was mentored by the Sedins who are great Pros but this team needs a new culture and the captain should reflect this - perhaps Miller who came from Tampa and is very familiar with there winning culture...
If it was easy to get out of those anchor contracts, I am sure it would be done already and both JM & CT will probably be here. Perhaps you have a magic wand that you can lend JB or a time machine to prevent himself from signing these players..... Next game or next season (if this continues past the 15/20 game mark.
Very frustrating start to this season !
It seems the whole team has been misfiring (so far) and it reflects on the preparedness of the staff. The first game was a very sloppy game and the three reasons why they won was because Holtby made timely save, our playmakers made plays and McD was misfiring the whole game.....
Nicely put but if an avg fan can see it, surely a bunch of paid coaches should be able to come with something with our current roster. Perhaps a re vamp of the assistant coaches in stages would be what the team would need to get to the next stage of there developement.. .
I think the culprit in tonights lost was Tanev and Markie cause they basically ratted the coaching staffs tendencies/strategies to there new team. The very same strategies that seems obvious to some of the watching public...
Jake seems to prefer the Mark Messier method of scoring - flying down the boards and hitting the goalies logo with his hair flowing in the wind. I agree but Jake won't get in those areas...
Oops - I meant assistant coaches. I agree that changing Green does not guarantee anything and perhaps the new assistant coaches can bring in some much needed new energy the needs to go to the next level. The management team should know when to do moves like these....
Give Motte a break - he is just padding his stat. All kidding aside some discipline and in game awareness during crucial parts of the way would had been preferred. Perhaps he should fight JV and bring the beast from within out - unless that beast is a teddy bear....
With hindsight, it would had been prudent for Jb to had only offered a two year deal to motivate them to play for another contract. If I am GM, I would only offer a bottom six player a take it or leave two year deal...
