Also sad that he won't get called on it, just an uh huh, ok, allright. Then the "journalists" will criticize him when he's not there. Called Price out on it and he got whiny....thinks he's some hard hitting journalist and not house radio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1-d Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 WD says he still thinks their PP is doing fine and will keep going with the current formation. I must say he's beyond delusional. Ffs their pp is running at measly 12%. Basically the other team diesn't have to do anything on PK, other than letting Hank keep the puck and run the clock. They know where the puck will be going even before it happens. Close the passing lane to Danny and the point man and the opposing team has nothing to worry about. Oh and Megna is an excellent one-man PK force by himself on the 2nd unit. No other nhl coach in his right mind will have megna within 100 ft of his team's PP.

cabinessence Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Is that a way to excite the fans? Willie could be the most boring coach to listen to in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly Willie might be the only coach in this league who's satisfied with one of the worst/least creative powerplays... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IbanezRG Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 33 minutes ago, Twilight Sparkle said: no. no it wasn't, and anyone who thinks that was a "good effort" is insane. it's the same story we're seeing throughout this whole season >we're up/down by one, "its ok, we got this." >game's almost over "ok, we can still make it to overtime, it's fine" >lose in OT: "i thought we played well..." just stop. They play hard every game, that's why we've won the games that we've won at this point, we just suck, as in lack skill. If we had better players putting in the exact same level of effort every game, we'd be a contender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redhdlois Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Is this Willie's idea of being positive ? Glass half full ? He needs a reality check.....any other decent coach in the league would be lambasting their team by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beary Sweet Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Didn't catch the game today because of the epic football game between the Pack and Cowboys. Loui clearly scored and the refs had to review it even though it was clearly a goal.. stupid dumb refs. Based on some of the comments on here, Megna continues to get the Willie treatment and gets ice time while contributing very little. Some positives I've read so far is that the Sedins looked okay tonight, Marky looked solid but I don't know why some posters are complaining about the OT goal he allowed. He made 20 saves so not that bad. Also we got a point out of it and that's what matters most. Better than nothing. Will probably catch their next game vs the Preds. GCG!

JM_ Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 We need a new term: Megna Minutes. Lots of skating on the perimeter and no scoring. Willie loves him the Megna Minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whale Tail Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 But that Tanev rush in OT... wouldnt mind seeing more of that. Almost surprised Schneider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
