I don’t fee it’s an excuse but more of a fact. What would our record be with average goaltending? They have played 7 or 8 good games this year though. Demko will wear out soon. Shame.
Problem with this coaching staff if that coaches are really responsible for how a team plays in their own end.. positioning, stick placement, angles on the boards with body positioning etc.. this team isn’t any better in their own end and seems incapable of handling a strong forecheck. They rely on goaltending to bail them out far too often.
I will say that watching tampa for several years,, Miller was benched there several times for lack of effort. Last year was great, maybe old habits coming back. Loved burkies comments,, as a gm you need to figure out your players before other gms do
So we are now 8 million under the cap and need an additional 14 or so next two years. How is Benning supposed to sign a big name when we have how much money left? The canucks are still up against it for another two years when both lu’s hits are finally gone
saw enough of him in Colorado, NO! cant afford him, plus he is a liability in his own end. Two teams now apparently don't want him. The two he has played for. Puts up points but gives up boatloads of chances against. I may be alone here but tryamkin is more what we need for playoffs
