The great Joey Anderson with one right to the bread basket. Press box player on a playoff team is in the lineup

No more excuses for 98. Ryan Donato plays for the same team with the same inept head coach and generally has worse linemates than even Bedard does but he's got 8 goals so far. The fact that we're almost 20 games in to the season and 98 is still stuck on 3 goals and is seemingly getting worse and worse as the games go by....well all i can say is I'm pretty god damn disappointed, and i think we all expected better. I'm just sick of seeing people make excuses for him, enough of that BS.

Idk what is wrong with the kid....but its gotten to the point where i no longer think its just a fluke/funk/slump....something is going on. And he needs to toughen up mentally and get over whatever it is that's holding his game back cuz he was NOTICEABLY better last season, as a rookie, than he is now. Is he playing hurt? Something going on in his personal life?

Hawks are 34% at the dot

I know it’s blasphemy to say it but I just don’t see anything all that special about him. Yes a great release but he’s getting 1 sog a game. Not creating his shot. Physically weak.

He honestly looks like a boy playing against men.

A non-factor I almost every game.

Bedard has been shit himself, again.

This whole team sucks.

Both the TT and Bertuzzi signings look terrible.

I think we realize that the idea of TT is better than the actual player TT. Again, a non factor in most games.

He and Bertuzzi haven’t done much

Need to tell Bedard to ignore the defensive side and push for offense every shift. He needs to get his confidence back.
