No team in the NHL is bad enough to lose that way. who knows? ebola outbreak? the guys are so excited to be back on the road that they spend the first 2 weeks of the season hungover? bad breaks? teams lose sometimes. it's ok. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green is garbage...yet he calls out players who can't play his garbage systems. Get rid of this clown already. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wanted first to work on his play away from the puck to feel ready to make the jump and contribute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He simply does not have a good strategy to win games and can’t seem to motivate them either. We can still have a season salvaged if they do this quick. Hire Babcock I’ve read enough stories about how Babcock treats his players to know I don’t want him anywhere around this team. We need a coaching change. But he’s not the guy. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy always struck me as a bit of a prick and now the team is playing better without him. You often get that with sports teams when their best player is out of the lineup. Everyone remaining on the roster ‘ups their game’. It doesn’t generally last too long though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’d be interesting to hear Schmidt’s authentic take on what the atmosphere was like Me too! I suspect its either that he found our very weak coaching suspect or that he found this team had no identity - which was mainly caused by the sterilization of team and individual identity by having this team led by swedes over the last 20 years who tried to replace it with bland vanilla stoicism that many Normal Canadian hockey players don't buy into.

Slegr Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Tough second half to watch. Only bright spot is that the extra points that we’re handing out to Sabres and these other Eastern team will help to get them ahead of Leafs. I hope we get our first regulation win soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petey40 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 I don’t think Pettersson gets any free passes anymore. We all accepted this kind of performance during his ELC cause he was young but now he’s coming off holding out and then signing a big bucks contract and he needs to play like it. 3/4 games with no points and no presence to start the year is unacceptable from your #1 center. He wants to be on a winning team but he needs to help the team win. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AbbyNux Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 I do recall someone on the coaching staff saying in the preseason that we were going to be a fast forechecking team. So far, it's been easy for teams to come out. I'll say it again: when you replace the players and the results are the same then it isn't the players. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need a coaching change. But he’s not the guy. I'm not opposed to giving him a chance. There's a chance he's grown from his experience, and he definitely understands the game and will hold the guys accountable. A lot of the stuff coming out of Toronto was due to their core players not caring about winning and him trying to get them to put in the work necessary.
