He really struggles on his weak side. We only have one healthy RD right now. I wonder if Mailloux gets called up.
He's been super bad on the left side early this season, and he's been fine other games on the right side. Matheson is super bad (looks drunk and make stupid decisions + low efforts) every few games since the season started. It's a recurring pattern, I was actually expecting him to be super bad the previous game, just took one more game then expected.

And lol at Mailloux, that kid can't even play defense at the AHL level.

There was a vocal group writing on this forum, and hoping Matheson should get traded after his productive season. Management should have inquired hard, at the very least, on his value.

That ship has sailed.
I was one of those people!

I’m just saying they got 2 late 1sts for Monahan and traded “2 late 1sts” (31 +37) for Newhook
The first round pick we got for Monahan the first time was the 1st round pick we have from Calgary this year. And the winnipeg first we got last year for Monahan ended up being Hage.

Newhook was with the florida first round pick and a 2nd.

I'm sure one of our resident philosophers can chime in on this: A coach and a leader should instill a combination of respect/fear amongst his players/disciples. Evidently, our team is unafraid of the consequences of such a putrid performance. It seems to also be the case at an individual level for most members of it.

That cannot continue. What we witnessed today was a team giving up after the fourth or fifth goal, a kind of indifference reigning within the roster. Needs to be addressed ASAP!

We still all believe in the plan? Remember - Bergevin had a plan too. Incredible how people continue to blindly believe the bullshit this management is selling without seeing an inkling of proof that they know what they’re doing. It’s always the promos of the bright future isn’t it Just be patient and wait 10 more years. But no promises. Ike what - Demidov will show up next season and this team will magically turn into a contender with st Louis as the coach? Or Montanbo as the starter? Or Matheson as #1 defenseman?

Kirby Dach is done, absolutely useless.

Rebuild needs a rebuild!
Give it time... 30 games coming back from a potential career ending injury is not enough. He hadnt played in a minute and like we hear from professionals, this can take up to or more than a year to fully recover from. Instincts, fear, lack of confidence all come into play

He's actually in better shape than I expected him to be 😐

We should rename ourselves the Montreal Phoenix so at least we can play the “rise from the ashes” card every year

What plan? You know Gorton doesn't even have a termed contract right?

Those sick kids they visited at the hospital yesterday, could of played a better game.

Was the entire team hungover? Haven't seen that much mishandling of the puck since a pee-wee game.

Also good to know that Slaf only as the ability to skate if he's on the first lane. Those are some mental blocks he's gonna need to figure out.

Team is garbage and other than Lane and Demidov the rest of the prospects are ho-hum.

This team is light years from the playoffs let alone being a contender. Hughes needs to fire MSL asap and admit Dach, Newhook aren’t working out and adjust the plan. This plan looks like we are going to be Buffalo V2
