We could easily have taken points from the first 3 games. I would expect us to get better defensively as we go, but can't say I believe we have any particularly good dmen atm. As I said last year, i wasn't for a rebuild, but, we're in one and so i'm not throwing my toys out of the pram after 3 close losses.
I'm a little concerned by the amount of message sending Quinn has implemented. Namestnikov, Hayes, Shattenkirk, it's all just been a bit... like he's trying to show everyone who's boss. Now, you could say there was a positive reaction, but 3 players in 3 games is a heck of a lot and a little unnecessary. I'm sure scratching Staal would suffice.
