I want them to lose a bunch so that Hall gets frustrated and is 100% gone then win just enough to miss the playoffs and secure a higher pick.

Ok medium lol. I was just expecting more against a team that embarrassed us on home ice already. We weren't playing the 80's Oilers tonight
 
Howden does more to hurt this team than any of the other rookies. He can't take faceoffs and plays the role of a defensive center that can't play defense and doesn't know how to use his size. He absolutely murders Kakko when they put them together. He is a black hole for offense. A lucky point blank goal doesnt change that.

While I can accept the rebuild posts, in regard to the defense, I don't like using the "youth" excuse because I'd say Lindgren and Fox have consistently been this team's better defenders in the games I've seen the past few weeks. The culprits are always Trouba, Skjei, Deangelo, and to a lesser extent Hajek. Hajek I'm fine with taking his lumps. The other 3 need to be better.

Lindy Ruff is a terrible coach, but those three players aren't exactly high IQ players, either, which poses some interesting questions moving forward.

Of the defensive players you mentioned, only Trouba is here for the long run
 
How many times are they going to have a good game and then come out and look like a JV team the next game?

I get that they’re young and it’s them learning but they need to learn how to bring their floor up. not every game is going to be great but you need to bring your floor up to at least average. It can’t be either good or looking like a bunch of middle
Schoolers. Can’t be bipolar like that.

Team is doing a major disservice to Hajek forcing into a top pairing role

Kid is floundering big time

How is giving a player some top line minutes a disservice.

Look I know "ruining a player" is a convinient escape to use when expectations and results don't jive over time, but outside
of horrible injuries l, i've never witnessed a great player get ruined from playing on a bad team or getting hosed for a while

Ever...
