Get pucks deep. Get pucks to the net. And, uh…

I have literally said this at least the past 3 seasons, maybe 4+…

Our record doesn’t matter. Even the fact we’ve made a couple of deep runs doesn’t matter. We are just an abysmal team to watch and cheer for. We are straight up not an enjoyable team to be a fan of. Of course, we have good games, good come backs, moments of high effort to be proud of…. but generally speaking, we are infuriatingly inept at the same exact basic motherfuxking shit year after year after year. Like Colorado has no goddam depth, shit goaltending and half their team seems to be injured every year but they’re SO f***ing enjoyable to watch. What I wouldn’t give.

i would love someone to go through the games and figure out what percentage of times that lindgren has the puck leave his stick, it's next touched by an opposing player.

I think a big part of this is something @Machinehead was on top of years ago, which is overall this organization brings in bad passing players. Watching other teams around the league they snap the puck around, nyr often looks like they are passing with pool noodles.

I agree....my biggest complaint has been the fact that they were either lacking or couldn't make fundamental plays.

They play with no joy and relentlessly fail to take and own space. Just a very passive team without a lot of aggression.
