I tried to tell you guys. But some of you j keep responding with, it’s just preseason.Brodie looks absolutely cooked
OK, it's preseason, too early for any assessments but currently Bertuzzi looks the same as he did in TO. If he didn't impress while playing with Mathews/Marner, I don't see him impressing anyone here either.
The Luke Richardson effect of destroying every young player.Tough preseason for Bedard honestly. Hasn’t looked comfortable.
They gutted their team to get Bedard in the first place and were left with a trash prospect pool thanks to Bowman. You could argue they expedited their rebuild too much this offseason by adding Bertuzzi and Teuvo if this team is completely trash again with no improvementsBut let's not blame the GM.....
Said all along the rebuild stopped the second they won Bedard and that building a winner should have been expidited. Nope, drafting questionable players with questionable traits (speed and compete broz) instead of winners, not trading and surrounding Bedard with winners, letting your two greatest winners leave in Toews and Kane for nothing.... the problem is the GM.
The Bears looked like the best team in the NFL in preseason and looked completely lost their first few games. I understand NHL is different than the NFL but preseason is meaningless. I don't remember any of the preseasons during the Cup run.For those saying it’s just preseason I might be understanding now. They are trying to trick every other team in the NHL into thinking they are really bad and catch them off guard in the regular season. Now I got it, it’s brilliant
Can't expedite a rebuild if the guys you bring in aren't winning gamesThey gutted their team to get Bedard in the first place and were left with a trash prospect pool thanks to Bowman.

Yeah, no coach can make a roster of primarily 4th liners score goals.It looks like Hawks will struggle to score goals all season long. The talent is simply not there - there is no finish on this roster ... it must be Luke's fault.
you've almost won me over.Has there ever been a coach fired in preseason? Because it would be deserved at this point.
i know what i said before about hallamania running wild hasn't panned out so far, but i don't think kurashev is much of an answer in that spot either.It should be Kurashev on PP1 not Hall.
Nah Kurashev has legit chemistry with Bedard. And he’s not flubbing everything like Hall is, which is killing the powerplay. Hall is only there because of his name right now. It’s not based on how well he’s playing.i know what i said before about hallamania running wild hasn't panned out so far, but i don't think kurashev is much of an answer in that spot either.
