I hope we get a new coach with a better system that promote puck possession - we are chasing most of the 2nd. and it must be extremely frustrating for the players. It do not look promising when Chytil & Lias are going to learn how to play in NHL chasing the puck all the time.
Puck possession and cycling would do wonders for like 11/12 of our forwards

How does a professional sports coach see the same shit happen to his team night in, night out and not adjust at all? Does he just magically expect things to start going right in the face of all evidence to the contrary?

Maybe we don't have the horses to adjust, meaning we might not score enough if we play a different system. I mean, Dallas changed coaches and became a good defensive team, so it's possible.

What's to adjust? This is his system in action. Loosen up the defensive structure so the team can more effectively counter-attack. Then let Hank clean up the mess.

ADA is not an NHL player.

No idea if Chytil or Andersson are.

Graves may not be either.

At 22, too early to prognosticate that ADA isn't an NHL player. He's got a little less than 50 NHL games under his belt and it remains to be seen if he can figure it out.

Graves might be a victim of the depth chart. Not sure he makes this team any time in the near future.

Chytil and Andersson will both be on the roster next year, IMHO.

TAKE 1 SHOT IF:
• Both NYR defenders are below the goal line
• Rick Nash blows a scoring chance

TAKE 1 DRINK IF:
• Other team gets shot on goal
• Lundqvist is pissed
• Unsuccessful PP entry

FINISH YOUR DRINK IF:
• Brendan Smith and/or Kevin Shattenkirk take a bad penalty

Oh enough with the nonsense about structure. It obvious they don’t have the horses. To many DD and Nieves kind of forwards, players who never score. They have at least 4 forwards that are borderline NHL players, from Carey to Lettieri to Nieves to DD and Nash can’t score anymore. Add Hayes and McDonagh out of the lineup along with Kreider and what the heck do you expect?

I literally laughed out loud. I'd be smashed if I followed these rules.

If Graves or ADA were NHL caliber, Kampfer wouldn’t be on the roster.

ADA was on the Roster getting top pair minutes dominating possesion stats wise... Then AV decided he'd 7 D then ADA would only be a PP specialist for the 2nd PP then sent him down in favor of Holden.

Duncan Keith played his first NHL game at age 22. Not saying ADA will be Duncan Keith, but some defenseman take longer to figure it out.

I'm not convinced that Graves will ever play as many NHL games as DeAngelo already has.

Is it bad that a part of me wants this team to continue to play like this so we can get this shit coach out of here? I'm tired of watching this team play these types of games.
