In Coyle's defense Montgomery is not using him properly. Last season was an anomaly and to be fair not sustainable for Coyle. That doesn't mean Coyle doesn't have his strengths and can not contribute, but I'll bet a nickel, half his struggles are a result of how he is being used and the expectations.
Coyle is a good hockey player, and in the end he will prove that he is doing his job. No right wing, and Marchand is not the player he once was, lets be honest that has not helped, and when Fredrics has been with him he seems a little better. This team has other problems other than Coyle, he needs to be better and I, think he will.

If I’m dealing McAvoy he’s not going to be the best player in the trade
What realistically better player is on the block. Could we add enough to get Adam Fox and send him to his favorite team? Doubt it. You could take Trouba and another good older forward and send them Coyle and probably pocket a pick.

This is more than a talent issue.

The level of disorganization out there is staggering. That's on the coach.

The level of sloppiness and the lack of compete level is also staggering. That's on the players and particularly the leadership group, who have been the biggest offenders. Marchand, Pastrnak, McAvoy, Lindholm, Carlo, Swayman should all be ashamed.

As for the last sentence, it just doesn’t feel to me like they are. At all.

It feels to me like they’re trying to get Monty fired, or at the very least, force a change in how they play.
That would be so douchy if true. I mean, line up outside Dons offfice if you have to, but to sabotage the on-ice product? I know you are just speculating here, but damn I hope that isn’t true.
