Kempe has been waaaaaaaaay more impactful than Fiala, who you are always quick to defend on here.

For a team that lacks high-end offensive talent, losing a player who averaged 38 goals the last two seasons and was leading the team in scoring this season is indeed a big loss.
Fiala creates offense by himself while Kempe has been a big benefactor of Byfield this year. This is that one instance where you miss the plot by looking at points alone.

Win or lose this is one of the worst performances since the Willie D. era.
Are Kempe and Anderson the real leaders that get the team going? Look lost without them.
They looked better without Doughty that year than they do without Anderson.
Dont wanna single anyone out because its a team effort but Gavrikov has been struggling since the Islanders game.

They play like they don't care.
i really don't think they do

they've assembled a roster of guys who have no fire in their belly, just out there to get a paycheck and a big NHL guy

that's what gets you JAD and lewis on the same roster, too scared to make mistakes so you hire every NPC you can find

It's not Talbot. That's way too easy of an excuse. The whole team in front of him isn't playing. Couple defensemen are constantly hanging the team out to dry and have been doing it for two weeks.
