Lol when you watch other games in the NHL you get an appreciation for how bad this team is.

I think a lot of it is the system, on paper we prob shouldn’t be as bad as we look.
A lot (probably most) of it can be attributed to a poorly constructed roster full of kids and bad possession players. But systems/coaching can also make a bottom third team look like the worst group in the NHL, which is what we look like a lot of the time.

The saddest thing is this is the healthiest roster we've had in a long time, and we almost looks worse for it.

Underlying numbers match the eye test. This record isn't sustainable.

Enjoy being in the "playoff hunt" while it lasts, but sooner or later Dostal will collapse just like Gibson did a few years ago and we'll be quickly out of the race before the All Star break 4 Nations Face Off thing.

I’m fine with gauthier on pp1 he’s getting chances, once he gets one in I think he’ll get hit

I don't hate Cutter there but I would like to try an leverage the potential. Cutter is playing with Z at ES might be able to capitalize on the chemistry on the PP2 as well as boosting Vatrano up.

I stopped watching my spectrum feed of KCOP because it was a disaster, and went to the Victory+ app on my iPad, which worked flawlessly, and had (as usual) a much clearer feed.

It seems random as to what works/doesn’t work for people.
I was watching the KCOP feed OTA and had the same issues. Switched to the app on my iPad and the feed worked smoothly without a glitch. That said, I've been watching KCOP OTA every game and this was the first time it was so problematic.

Brutal first and third period. Dostal is going to be completely drained by January at this rate

Team just looks tired. Which shouldn't be the case on a non back to back vs an aging Pens team.
