I can't remember - were we told to expect some system changes? I haven't noticed anything different. I didn't expect much to be different either, just a coach that the players don't hate.
Our entries into the offensive zone on power plays are no longer so predictably dependant on back passes.

I don't think I've ever wanted a player to succeed as much as Shane wright. So many people want him to fail to prove a point
Yeah. I generally stay away from making posts on the main boards but made one earlier on that thread. It seems like the moment Slaf started doing well, it got even worse.

I have never understood fans wanting prospects from other teams to fail. These are 18-21 year old kids for f***s sake. Just root for the ones on your team if you want. No need to talk down about other teams prospects.

Even just the other day someone was criticizing him on one of the main threads and clearly was just stat watching rather than watching the games. I think Wright has started the season well and think more points will come.

Geez. That’s a bummer. At least Mahura was defensively responsible against Calgary.
Only plus side is that it helps with the cap a little

Hockey does crack me up where Dunns injury post game implied 'tis just a scratch' no big deal etc to LTIR.

I feel like every other sport it's worrying about the worst case then it getting played down/not being as bad.

He's on LTIR because the Kraken are so cap strapped they are not carrying 23 players....it is purely for cap reasons.
