What did Z do this time?

f*** Cronin. That’s what.

 

[la patineuse]

I don't know why I get my hopes up before each game. It's usually the same old crap every time.

 

[Ducks DVM]

He dove directly into the check…

 

[Smirnov2Chistov]

f*** Cronin. That’s what.

Verbeek may well be next - he hired this guy, even vouched for him!

 

[Leonardo87]

Refs suck as usual.

 

[Mr Rogers]

Cronin is so weird with Zegras. Christ

 

[Ducks DVM]

Zegras HAS been really bad tonight.

 

[duckaroosky]

He dove directly into the check…

And then dove after the check too

 

[Goose of Reason]

Zegras HAS been really bad tonight.

How good has Ross been to justify that decision?

 

[ScarTroy]

Yeah if there’s any game I bench Z it’s this one

 

[Rybread86]

I don't get any of these calls anymore. Bjork has his head down, shoulder was going at shoulder level.

 

[la patineuse]

At least they didn't take 10 penalties this game. Yay, they win!

 

[Leonardo87]

Zegras HAS been really bad tonight.

Yeah but so has everyone not named Carlsson.

 

[dracom]

Zegras HAS been really bad tonight.

everyone besides the 1st line has been bad. it's not zegras' fault no one he passes to can score

 

[All Mighty]

To be fair to Cronin, McTavish has been invisible tonight and Cronin didn’t put him out with the empty net either.

 

[KelVarnsen]

Yeah if there’s any game I bench Z it’s this one

He benches him every other game. It’s so plain to see he doesn’t like Zegras game. It’s gonna be sad to see PV trade Z because he wants to back a pretty incompetent coach.

 

[Deuce22]

14 shots, accountability enacted.

 

[Smirnov2Chistov]

Don’t worry Cronin, you still have a dozen games left to figure out what game plan you may have

 

[Rybread86]

How good has Ross been to justify that decision?

FFS it's a play scheme. It's not "Johnston is better than Zegras" it's "We haven't been able get get shit through so let's stick a really f***ing big guy in front of the goalie and see if we can get one off a deflection or by blinding the guy with Johnstons big ass"

Naw I agree, he’s a moron for how much he benches him, but this game however I don’t necessarily disagree with. Z has had 0 offensively threatening plays this game really

 

[Leonardo87]

I’m usually very laid back when it comes to negativity but Cronin is not the right coach for this team.

 

[dracom]

completely fine if we clean house with the coaching staff entirely. cronin is not good, stifles offense, makes bad line up decisions. If it's between Cronin and Zegras, I'm picking Zegras 1000 times out of 10

 

[Smirnov2Chistov]

14 shots, accountability enacted.

It’s all fine and dandy with Verbeek! Lol

 

[All Mighty]

FFS it's a play scheme. It's not "Johnston is better than Zegras" it's "We haven't been able get get shit through so let's stick a really f***ing big guy in front of the goalie and see if we can get one off a deflection or by blinding the guy with Johnstons big ass"

He’s tried this many times and it’s never worked.
