Post-Game Talk: Devil VII

[NickyLongLegz]

Very excited to hear from Drury

 

[Jauffre]

The Kids are 4th liners because that’s what’s been asked of them. Panarin has blocked them from bigger roles because of his refusal to play with them. Gallant needs to go as well obviously. I mean you blame Sather for all the organizational ills, he hasn’t even been involved in the team in years. Drury is going nowhere.

Yeah, give the kids more ice-time to shit themselves for a few minutes more.

Kakko is a valuable checking forward with 2-way upside: 60 point player, that's peak.

I'm almost certain Lafreniere has a learning disability and is stuck at a mental age of 12.

 

[I Eat Crow]

what's fuzzy potato head saying?

Said all the talent in the world doesn't matter if they can't plat together and only muster 2 goals in 4 games.

 

[PuckLuck3043]

Up 2-0. Lost 4 out of the last 5 games. Shutout in a game 7.

We were absolutely hosed 5 on 5. If not for the best goalie in the world, this is a probably a 5 game series.

At least we can oust the coach and hopefully learn how to play even-strength hockey, and make adjustments in all situations.

I'm hoping this happens. Once they made adjustments on the PK and we couldn't score a PP it was over. We couldn't compete 5 on 5 against their speed.

All-star team. Basicly calling Drury out.

Calling out the team’s effort. No f***ing way he keeps his job

 

[Sayba]

Kakko and Laf get a full long offseason to really train. Just like Hughes was getting. Good

Hughes is faster than both of them put together

 

[bl02]

Chytil scored a bunch of goals around the all star break and then fell off the face of the earth

Still had more points than Panarin and Mika and a decade younger. I'm willing to be a bit more patient with him. We need to be.

and stuff like that.

"We weren't horrible in the series"
You fukn what Gallant?!!!

We won 3 (convincingly) and lost one in OT. That's not horrible.
The issue was that when we were bad, we were f***ing terrible

 

[WhereO Is Kakko]

Gallant post-game presser. So non-plussed, nonchalant like this was just another game.
Doesn’t look like a guy worried about his job in the least.

Drury - do the thing tomorrow please.

 

[I Eat Crow]

Even with the Devils being the better team, you were up 2-0 coming home. You can't lose that series. Gallant needs to be fired this week.

With all the contracts and clauses and no cap increases really, idk where Drury goes from here. This is the core and unless something chances stylistically we're not contending any time soon. What a blown opportunity. Last year up 2-0 and lose in the ECF and now this year up 2-0 and lose in round 1. Something needs to change.

Shutout by a rookie in Game 7, multiple games where you barely even tested him. And Igor is under siege every game. Just pathetic.

I just don't agree. There is a way out of this core.

 

[InfernoDaLuz]

Said all the talent in the world doesn't matter if they can't plat together and only muster 2 goals in 4 games.

I wonder whose job that is...

 

[zlev]

Gallant is a meat head but this was about as far as this roster should've got. oh well.

 

[Ruggs225]

I trade KAM so fast it would make the collective head of this board spin. Kid is so over rated its laughable.

Been saying that his entire career

[Brutananadilewski]

He's so fast he ends up flying in the air.

 

[NickyLongLegz]

I truly believe somehow getting rid of Panarin would be highly beneficial to this team. Let the kids be the actual second line and play on the PP and actually developing their f—- offensive talent. And obviously, get a coach with a system so they can make adjustments in a series

 

[PuckLuck3043]

He’s starting as a gm in the summer.
I want Sullivan.

Pens fans have been crying about him for years. I'm not sure if he is the answer.

 

[PalmCoastRanger]

It was a good run for this core. Tear it down to the studs.

That should include Kreider. Elimination games heroics aside, there is a point where we have to ask, why do his teams consistently find themselves on the brink of elimination. Is Drury brave or creative enough to pull such a move.

Yes, Mr. MH sir, I'll sign my name on the list.

[LionsHeart]

Giving up on the kids is essentially a return to the dark ages IMO.

We’ll be back to where we were when the letter was sent out very quickly.

 

[Machinehead]

I could be convinced to rebuild again but it would have to be with a completely new front office. Nuke it. New GM, new scouting, new player development for f***s sake.

If it's gonna be the same people, just f*** it and hope they trip over the right mercenaries. They won't develop anyone anyway.

 

[Kords]

Gallants not wrong with that quote. Poor work ethic, poor forecheck. Country club boyz

 

[Kane One]

As I seem to say every year at this point, unfortunately, see you next year.

I’m about to pass out. I love you all.

 

[Zarao71]

Our player development has got to have the worst track record in pro sports. Our AHL franchise is a joke. We finally look like we’re gonna do a proper rebuild and our man child owner gets greedy and goes full in before the job is done. All because the team was soft. The Rangers Kryptonite. Ironically we put together one of the softest playoff rosters of all time.

Not wrong
