Are we officially the dumbest fanbase of all at this point? You guys will run Tkachuk out of town and the team will be even worse lol. Brady and Stu are untouchable. If we lose either I think I will give up on this team. It hasn't been fun being a fan for a while now.

This fanbase’s obsession with whipping boys is toxic.

Erik Brannstrom, another « problem »,
currently has one fewer goal than the sens entire D core combined.

We’re going lose badly to Anaheim tomorrow and morons will tell us it’s because we’re tired.

I hate this team and I find the players very unlikable.
I agree with you except for Stu, Jensen and Ullmark (if he's finally found his game). SS keeps saying he's building a team around Brady, I'd like him to build a team around Stu. Keep Drake as we have so few playmakers to begin with; keep Chabot as he plays well with Jensen.

Need to find out what's wrong with Sandy's game lately. Is it the new coaching style or are they trying to make him an offensive D-man (something he is not)? Because whatever it is, it's not working. He used to instinctively know how to play D very well, now lots of brain farts since the coaching change. He's also not skating like he used to, is he injured?

Staios will wait till its too late, the team will go on a pointless run after the season is over giving management false hope for next season.
Yes, we've all seen that movie before. I'd rather they become a lottery team. Make the 1st round pick worth it as we only get one in the next 2 years.

Dean Evasin is 10x the coach Green is. He was right there for the taking.

Oh well.
Or Claude Julien. He's the coach that first implemented Boston's D structure and he's won. He lives in Ottawa and I read somewhere he was interested. At this point, I still don't know if the issue is only with the players or a combination of players/coaching.

3 NHL goals or SHL goals? Cuz I heard that’s where he would be playing once the preseason was over.

Playing with Reinhart and Amadio

copy and pasted from NST you can look it up there if interested.

I can change the colour here but 1 column at a time so .. no go
Black text on a dark blue background is a "no, no!"

I agree with you; changing the background color or text colour to increase contrast is too much work!


Can anyone explain pinto here. Anyone. What the f*** is he doing.

It seems the coaching staff have failed to tell the players how to play in the D zone.

A players get the puck in the slot and whiffs and is off balance. Shouldn’t need to tell pinto to…get out of his way?

It's a combination of causes: Poor previous owner, Poor previous GM, Poor previous coaching, Gullible new owner, overly-patient inexperienced new GM, Poor new coaching staff, lack of direction to the players, lazy players.

Scorched Earth rebuilds fail more often than not anyways, so it's not a fool proof plan either. They sure are in a tough spot after what looks to be 7 straight lost seasons.

For sure, but lots of those teams like Edmonton who had failed rebuilds until the McDrai lottery had awful GMs and front office. But we are in a unique situation now where we have no reasonable way to take small steps over a long period of time. I don’t wanna start from scratch, but seems like the best option given Dorion pissed away assets like it was going out of style to try and salvage FYOUS when the writing was on the wall.

They're all playing very well says Noodles re: Tkachuk, Stutzle, Gaudette and Batherson. Said nothing about any other Players.
