they beat the defending champs two days ago dude, take a breath
Who are playing dog shit hockey in their own rights, not exactly a huge win....

On the trip they beat a terrible Philly team, a shell shocked Washington who just lost Ovi the game prior, and a Florida team that's lost like 5 of 6. The only team that was remotely playing good hockey was Tampa who absolutely took us to the woodshed. Not exactly inspiring hockey.

Got to think this might be the last game Annunen gets with this franchise. Bednar hates him.

Also got to think that Bednar is on thin ice. He's a f***ing joke at this point. Guys are rarely ready, effort is f***ing terrible almost all nights, holds no one accountable except our backup goalie, can't adjust to any play style, it's beyond bad at this point. You can clearly tell no one is remotely listening nor can they play his crap ass system with the current roster.
Lmao what a clown post.



Our team is getting .870 goaltending and we're 2 games above .500... Quite frankly Bednar deserves Jack Adams consideration for the record he's managed so far with the goaltending and the injuries he's had to work with in the first 45 days.

Ah yes the poster who would argue and tell me I'm wrong if I claimed the sky was blue. Color me shocked you disagree with me. Lol.

Bednar has been on a decline for 2 years. The team has been very mid considering they have 2 of the 3 best players on the planet on the team.

Guy won a cup. So what, it's been pretty so so since then. Sometimes a change is needed, we are quickly headed in that direction. Injuries, bad goaltending, you can call it what you want. But the facts are pretty simple, if 29 and 8 don't flat carry, we lose. There's no coaching strategy or thought, it's just run 29 and 8 into the ground and hope...

Well, it was a dark, dreary day and we got nailed with 7 inches of snow. I'd say he was right if he did. :laugh:

Hopefully that’s the worst loss of the season. Similar to last year when the Avs gave up eight to the Blues and Bednar lost it at the postgame presser.

I really do think Bednar was finished with Annunen after that goal in the Sens game but this probably sealed the deal. Feels like the time Johansson gave up 8 to the Bolts and he was essentially gone after that.

I have a growing concern about Nathan MacKinnon. He just looks off right now. Can’t quite pin it down but I really want to say it happened after Nuke came back. He just looks so lifeless out there compared to how he usually plays. And I’m not even saying it really has anything to do with Nuke, that’s just when I noticed it.

Did not like Bednar’s lineup changes. I don’t think you take Kylington out after his first goal and getting the big hat. Wait until, well, this one. I also didn’t like that he put a career AHLer on the 2nd line and put Lehkonen back with MacKinnon. I mean, enough with Tynan. If you’re gonna call up anyone, why not Phillips?

They had a dayoff in Florida and then this happens. Not everyone had a "diciplined" time after the win against Panthers is just too evident here.

Oh well, 3-1 on a roadtrip doesn't suck. Also reminding the front office our tending ain't close to reliable doesn't suck.
Losing Drouin again sucks.

Stinkers like this always happen in a season. Go home and bounce back like you mean it!

What he's saying ... regarding George... is the defense in front of him sucked.

I mean, does Devon Toews not know how to play a 2 on 1?

Does Devon Toews also have a pulled hamstring that allows him to coast back on a different 2 on 1?

Does Josh Manson not under stand how to play his position on the PK?

As a group, they were terrible and hung George out to dry multiple times.

And I'm not a fan of George. But I get his frustration.

His D and fwds playing D ran around the zone like chickens with their heads cut off.
I guess Toews could have done better on that goal, position himself better, but the puck still deflected off Georgiev straight to the Glendening’s stick.

Agreed. Lets not overreact. Cant win every game, and sometimes the puck luck is not on your side. The only thing we learned from this, that our goalies are not good enough, but its not like we did not know that beforehand.

I say Landeskogs situation is once again f***ing us up. Thats 7 millions that we could use on a proper goalie and maybe better third pairing D-man.
