Our powerplay is absolutely trash.. we have all the players all the skill yet we like to take our time with slow passes or the drop pass back to our zone.. I dont care if we had the 4th best powerplay last year. They were almost 50% against non playoff teams.. they sucked against decent team.. get rid of brown plz..

I’d like to see them go old school and put two d on the point.Schmidt has a bomb.  Less lateral shiit and more bombs from the point 

[nuck-lifer]

Not looking good for Pearson

 

gotta rejig the lines again looks like

[Me_]

It’s the uniforms.

we’re all wanting our Flying Skates uniforms back. Even Pettersson says it’s his favorite.

No no, we've got the people who say how good it was last year because stats.

 

Newell for lifetime contract.

Pp is to predictable. Everyone stands still 

This.

 

For all the talent on that unit, they move the puck and their feet like its stuck in cement.  Newell Brown needs them to move their feet.  Not impressed by how that 5 on 3 was managed.

[rekker]

Really missing that zing from the playoffs. Almost like they are overthinking. Just skate hard and play. 

[bertuzzi44fan]

Time to fire our coaches,can't imagine how so many young guys are already gassed.

[KILLER]

Still early but that period stunk.

[gizmo2337]

They can't stand still on the PP like that! Move the puck. Man, they wouldn't have scored if it was a 5 on 0 there. With all this talent on the PP, there's no excuse anymore. 

[Greenman Wannabe]

This is gonna be a long A$$ season if this is how our special teams & defense wanna play. This has been brutal to watch the last 4 periods. Effort isn't there from most people. 

REALLY wish Benning would get rid of Brown and Baumgartner... Their systems DONT WORK.

[Devron]

Bobby Monahan

I didn't like the Horvat dropping into the slot aspect of that 5 on 3.  With Hoglander in front of the net = too much congestion.

I agree. Hoglander is strong, but markstom towers over him. Horvat would be better in front. 

[b3.]

We need Loui

You mean... Shots from the points with lots of traffic in front?

 

Nah, it's too obvious it would never work. We've got to stand in one place and pass it back and forth, minimum 3 touches or else the goal doesn't count.

Yeah it’s been a a big problem already the specialteams spread is a killer but they had all off season to dump Brown 

 

travis protecting him 

[1-d]

Could it be the team depression from staying in AB too long? 

[guntrix]

We gotta do something to fix this PP...

[Smashian Kassian]

PP had a couple of chances that could've gone in. (With a bit of luck)

 

But far too static, not moving around, reluctant to shoot, looking for perfect play/open net... Probably a lack of confidence right now. (Aside from Hughes who keeps shooting into shin pads)
