Yeah, I'm not really attached to any of this bunch except maybe Horvat, Pettersson and Martin. The big problem is the cap is so screwed with long term, big money deals that we will have a near impossible task in getting rid of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 The Good: -Spencer Martin, he was awesome and exactly what we expect from Demko. Don't need shutouts, just give us a chance like he did tonight. -Horvat had a great game, not just the goal but overall game as well. -Joshua Aman Studnicka line was excellent in the first but then got broken up inexplicably The Bad: - Myers just wasn't good tonight. - OEL made a few nice plays but looked lost out there at times that were puzzling. Is he being asked by Mike Yeo to run around and take weird routes? - JT wasn't moving his feet. He was involved and threw hits, but he's not showing enough leadership defensively. -Bear and Stillman just weren't good. The ugly: -Hoggy just doesn't look good or even NHL material. He needs to go to AHL. -Boudreau's choices lately are just baffling. Why no Burroughs? Why isn't Brisebois up with the big club? Why break up Mil - Petey - Kuz? Why take Kuzmenko off PP1? Why break up Aman's line? Why is JT at center and not on Horvat's wing? Why is JT on the PK? If we don't win the next two games on the road, I'm officially done with the playoff pursuit.

Terrible choice putting Brock on PP1. Especially late in the game. Bruce has been on glue the whole season. I love the guy but it seriously looks as if he's sabotaging it. Playing the worst lineups imaginable, breaking up good lines, putting two horrendously defensive forwards out together consistently, ice time allocation, etc. not to mention how awful the team looks structurally.

Blue Jay 22 Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 Bruce is about to get fired for JR and Allvin’s off-season mistakes. You could bring in Patt Quinn, Connie Mack, Phil Jackson, and Bill Belichick for the coaching staff and this team would still stink with the personnel they have to work with. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NHTyrany Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 So frustrating. Petterson has lost the desire to shoot. And most players can't hit the net. The confidence sucks. I'm about 3 games from team tank. Also, boo on the refs for gifting Mathews that first powerplay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canuckfanforlife82 Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 (edited) They wanted to be a game above .500 by the US Thanksgiving. They aren't winning 5 in a row to get there.

This team sucks Time to make trades garland boeser miller Myer OEL really anyone and everyone should be available for the right price. Start over do it right shake out all the JB stupid and build a team that has a chance to win. Agreed but let's be real.. OEL is going nowhere with that contract. Myers, Garland, Boeser are all redundant. Miller is decent but will hold us back in 4 years when we're ready to compete. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PetterssonOrPeterson Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 The defence tonight: - waay too many open gaps on the defence on opposition breakouts and often leaving a forward of theirs all alone. really slow reads and terrible marking from the defence. The PP tonight: - that bumper play to horvat is so predictable its not even funny. there was a sequence where they did that 3 times over to no avail. same with miller in the high slot trying to shoot with no screen. I think they should move miller to the front of the net and have kuzmenko in that slot. - this constant passing back and forth from huggy/petey is infuriating. As much as I like huggy, his shot is sub par. He doesn't have that salo bomb or even one as strong as edler's slapshots. - Petey stickhandles and tries to make the perfect play, that when he decides to shoot its often too late. He arguably has the best shot on the team, he should be utilizing. BB talked about things being to cute and that is a very notable "bad habit" that they keep going back to. It needs to be fixed. Overall: 2-0 lead then TOR comes back to win 3-2. At least they fought in the third this time rather than treated it like a morning skate. Still not enough, but at this point, even showing effort is an accomplishment. sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone looked at Montreal's team a few years ago, they would've thought the same thing. If we choose to go through a mini rebuild, we can do so despite JT and OEL's deals.

Viper007 Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 This season was all set up to fail it seems. Rutherford clearly doesn't want Bruce as the coach. If the person at top isn't confident in the coach, how is the rest of the team suppose to be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Multiple NMC's or modified NMC's which are hard to deal. We were good on paper and everyone was stoked for the season. The only trade that's looking bad so far is the Stillman deal. Looks awful actually. I like the rest of the moves though. I think something big is coming, whether it's Bruce or a core piece moved. It's going to happen Monday after we lose to the Bruins tomorrow.

It's a bad mix folks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
