The haters will be on in full force tonight but I liked Wheeler's game tonight. Also didn't allow a single goal on his watch on the PK. Quite an accomplishment considering the state of the PK.

You have to be joking. He wasn't the worst one on the ice but he was, at best, nothing out there. I guess compared to the last game though, he had nowhere to go but up.

All the problems this team has had the last while are due to coaching. It's not just this season so far. Everything from the system, what players play, and where they play in the lineup. It's a mess.

Yes we have seen a lot of this over the last few seasons.
I’m hoping this is just a rough start and not a trend.
We really won’t know until 20 games on what we have.
These 2 games have been major disappointments.

Agreed, I will put out the old tried and true cliche, it's not how you start it's how you finish. There is a long way to go in this season hasn't even snowed yet

PAUL MAURICE'S LUGGAGE
Serious question what does Harkins have to do to earn more playing time? He actually adds speed and forechecking a combo this team severely lacks.

if he can morph into wheeler, swap faces like in the movie face off, have a mask imprinted permanently over his face and/or a similar option to appear as wheeler or le chef boi, he'll play more.

TNSE is loyal to a fault, Maurice would have to lose 20 to start the season and even then it's not a given they would fire him during the season. This is the team and this is the coaching staff for this year.

My money's on January if there's any doubt about making the playoffs (ie. in a dubious wildcard spot).

PLD continues to infuriate with that play he does where he skates into the offensive zone with seemingly no plan, gets doubleteamed and loses the puck.

This could be a lottery team. Neither sharks nor the ducks are good.

Dubois' thought with those plays is to take defenders to him so as to open up the slot, but none of our guys ever go there because... I don't know? Scared to get hit I guess? He's subsequently left on an island to die, and yeah, gets stripped of the puck because he isn't getting any support and no one is going to the open areas. I find that infuriating.

I've been trying to figure out what Maurice's offensive scheme is and looking at the game tonight... I have no f'n clue what it is supposed to be. I don't think there is one.
