Montreal is free points...a team with no defense, no offense and no goaltending. They can't mess this up right?
 
Should I set up a GoFundMe so y'all will contribute to keep me away from this board and watching the game?

Nah, I'm going to watch it. The Marty's 4 Bolts 1.
 
Well, it's clearly looking like it's going to be an 82-game requirement to reach the playoffs because this team is incapable of getting legitimate separation from the pack beneath, and the teams above them are getting further and further away. Once the league catches up in the GP department in the next two weeks, Detroit might be out of reach in 4th place (Toronto already is at this point) and all those teams 5-8 points back but with 3-5 games in hand will probably be breathing down this team's neck.

JBB needs to resist the urge to buy, this team just isn't good.
 
They should let in another weird goal where the whistle wasn't blown but they act like it was.
 
If we lose we should listen to offers kn everyone outside of kuch,hagel,hedman, Sergachev and point. I am starting to think think one of two things Vasi was a product of our defense and wasn't as good as we thought or he isn't ready to play every night and our defense isn't doing him any favors. He looks awful right now.

I don't think he was a product of our defense we used to give up a ton of breakaways and stupid chances and he'd bail us out. He still makes some big saves down low with his legs but is letting in routine shots from distance that he didn't use to let in remotely near as often in the past (there were head scratchers here and there but not almost every game like he does now).

My point exactly. He was either overrated by everyone or he isn't ready. I am fine with giving him another year before exploring options because goalies go through ups and downs.

Yeah, Vasy had flaws, like any other goalie (I remember he lost a lot of pucks near his body, after they hit him), but he was undoubtedly the best at some things. Like, he was the best at getting the better of a shooter square. You just very, very rarely saw a shot beat him if he had time to square up to it. Now he seems pretty average with that.

Of course, there are the shots from distance that he just can't seem to track, especially if he has to deal with any traffic whatsoever. This seems to have gotten a little better than where it was early this year, and let's not even talk about vs. Toronto in the playoffs.

He still seems to have all the athleticism he ever did. That's what makes this stretch of play so puzzling. It's like he's lost his depth perception. (I'm not actually suggesting that that has happened, because undoubtedly the team would be all over it; I'm just saying, it's weird because it appears to have nothing to do with a loss in physical ability.)
