Junkyard Dog Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 A bad game versus a depleted team. Green better prepare this team right for the next game. We can't string together efforts like this one, we need to come out stronger next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shiznak Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 I thought they couldn't get any worse than the game they played in Calgary.........I thought wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tired or not, the focus, effort, and urgency lacked right from puck drop. Pathetic and embarrassing watching that hot mess. What is more worrying is that these symptoms have been evident in the previous 2 games but Markstrom sheltered the team from the consequences. We need Tanev back and Hutton needs a rest, he has been overworked up to now and it is beginning to show. Too many senseless penalties didn't help either. I don't like the way Granny has been marginalised and I'm not keen on Jake with the Twins - he is wasted on that line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the deal here, only the players that you like get to have 3 or 4 games to get up to speed? This picking on Edler is so classless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s concerning that they only have one high end prospect in the d position in light of the fact tha dmen usually take longer to develop, it’s no wonder JB is throwing Hail Marys with guys like pouliot. Lots of people are ragging on gudbranson, with good reason. I think we can thank Ferland of Calgary for that deal. He wrecked the soft Canuck D in the playoffs that year and JB had enough. It was humiliating to watch a AHL hack (at least back then he was) dismantle the D .Given the fact that JB came from a team where mean nasty guys like mcquaid, boychuk, and chara patrolled the blue line his move to get gudbranson shouldn’t be a surprise. Gudbranson would be ok if paired with a solid guy. He brings a lot of great things to the table, I’m just worried that the game has changed in a direction where a guy like guddy is ineffective. What would suck is if he just walks away at the end of the season. Maybe be the best thing is to keep losing and get a shot at an elite d man in this draft, I hate losing but aren’t we elated with Pettersson? He’s the product of losing after all.. Jeez, you saw all that in this one poor game from Gudbransson? Even Biega was poor in that game, Hutton needs a rest, Pouliot was on his wrong side and it showed, Edler needs games and MDZ was inclined to panic.

Jake's heavy hitting has been put away for a while. Until he is removed from the Sedin line his game will never surface and his talent (speed and hitting) will be wasted. Thank goodness someone else can see this horrible mismatch of a line. Jake is in danger of being "ignored to death" He revs up, barrels up the ice, only to look round to see the Twins waddling along miles behind him. I hear the twins have had a discussion and have decided to give Jake a "meaningful pass" for his Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've no idea what that means. I don't minus people (not even you) just for having a different opinion though like some of the 8th grade failures on here seem to get off on. You want to see "trolling" go look at Hockey101's posts to me. You really think it is fair to come down on a guy on his first game back after a MCL injury? Especially when the rest of the team bar one or two players are playing like they had MCL injuries? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"he logs heavy minutes" okay, so do a lot of other guys in the league. at the end of the day alex edler is really nothing special. he's like that typical guy from your work-- that lazy guy who does the least amount of work, but is just "good enough" to get the job done that you can't really get rid of, because he fills that job description Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you could have waited 3 or 4 games before launching in though (with respect do you know what having an MCL injury entails? ) as it would have been fairer to "our own player" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
