People will use the roster as an excuse but stretches like these are rare even for lottery pick level teams.
That is true.
The team dont want Therrien as coach anymore. It is really all it can be.
Subban swing and a miss! HAH! 9million, let that sink in, 9 million.
True, but we do have a few top 6 players. You just can't stick them with 2 other 4th liners and expect results. So play them together. MaxPac, Chucky at least are top 6 offensive forwards. Plek, Fleischmann are okay for a 2nd line. Carr is hot so he can stay. That's at least 5 players. Yet they are all split amongst 3 grindy lines. MT is simply obsessed with defense and thinks every single players needs to be a defensive wizards first and foremost.
Why would the team go 19-4-3 after the first two months just to suddenly decide they don't like MT and tail spin the whole month of December?
