I'm sure I will get heat for this but hard not to be disappointed with Lafreniere and to a lesser extent Kakko so far.

I get that it's a big adjustment...and our/my expectations may have been too high...and that it's been a weird 10 months of hockey w the pandemic.

But while Kakko to his credit looks much improved, in 6 games neither has shown even a glimmer of being a potential franchise player. Kids have struggles, I am not expecting finished products, but I am talking about real flashes the way a player like Miller has provided flashes.

I am hoping beyond all hope that there are better days to come...it is going to require more patience than I expected.
Why would you get heat for saying this? Everything you have said is true.

Power ranking now looks really grim we look like another 1st pick next summer.
  1. Goalie issues
  2. Turnovers defensive issues
  3. PK speciality team
  4. Cant get top draft picks going.
  5. Player development.

More postgame TALK. blah blah blah. Play a full 60. Right now the stars on this team are not capable of playing that kind of game.
And DQ admits that first goal was demoralizing. no shit. Maybe bench the guy who caused it for good
 
Would love to see a Torts presser after this performance. Damn I would have been preparing the popcorn after the second intermission!

Again, Quinn is not a f***ing idiot. It's just he cannot get his vets to stop their bad habits. He is saying the obvious on this presser. Too many cross ice passes. Too many times trying to force a play. Too many turnovers inside the offensive blue line. Also, he's absolutely right. Trouba flubbing the puck that led to the SHG was DEMORALIZING for an overall young time.

Panarin curling back every time instead of quick transitioning up ice. Strome with his lazy ass backhand flick passes. Strome taking his eyes off the puck like every single time against the boards.

Mika had coronavirus. I'll let him slide a little. Kreider doing Kreider things besides scoring early on.
 
@Edge talk us off the ledge here... or come join us...

Even to me this feels sudden... but I feel that Quinn has lost the room.
Torts is too mean! The players HATE him! He has no strategic philosophy! He just has stars block shots! Wah! AND HE PLAYS STU BICKEL! WORST COACH EVERRRRR! HE SUCKS! FIRE TORTS!

Vignaults gum chewing drives me crazy! I wanna punch his face! He has no breakout system. He gets outcoached in every playoff season! We NEED a coach who isn't an "old school retread"! And. He plays TANNER GLASS! HE SUCKS! FIRE VIGNAULT!

Quinn is moron! He lost the room! He won't keep a line intact! He benches one player for one thing and let's it go for another! "Our faceoffs don't suck"!! And.. HE PLAYS JJ!!
HE SUCKS!


FIRE QUINN!

I go back to Renney on here but I'm too tired.

Night all.
