GDT: GAME 27 | Senators @ Coyotes | Enter Jacques Martin | Tue Dec 19 2023 9PM | TSN5, RDS

[Gil Gunderson]

Too many turnovers in their own zone that led to more ARZ pressure. That hurt them tonight more than D-zone coverage.

Arizona should be a pretty good team by the time they have their new arena.

I did like Alfie giving it to Kastelic for not finishing a check. The only reason he's on the team is because he's big and can hit.

Brady and Tim had rough games. I wouldn't be surprised if Brady gets moved in a year or two in a Huberdeau/Tkachuk type swap.

I think Brady will ask out. I don’t see his dad watching him waste his career away like this without intervening, especially while his brother is killing it.

lmao teams make coaching changes on the fly and start going on runs all the time. We need a permanent coach and a full off-season to not be embarassing? I can’t take any of these excuses seriously man.

We didn’t get to read that PowerPoint Pierre put together for Melnyk, like @swiftwin did.

He laid out a 10 year rebuild. We’re only in year 6.

 

[Adele Dazeem]

You're getting blocked now.

I'm assuming you're talking about a certain poster, because I can't see this as a reply.

 

[DylanSensFan]

What was that swift?

 

[h2]

I think a lot of us need to chill out. It's one game with Jacques, it's going to take time to see improvement.

Blowing a 3-0 lead sucks, but there's some tendencies that need to be worked out.

He can ask all he wants, he has a contract lol

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Y'all promised that firing DJ was going to fix everything. What happened?

We wanted him fired at the beginning of the season because we know that if coaching is the issue, it’s going to take more than one day to fix. It’s too late now for anything meaningful.

 

[Cosmix]

They press and their bad habits just race to the forefront

Yup. It is going to take a while to change the way each player plays the game. Some detailed teaching is required. Have to give Jacques and Alfie some time to do so.

Although this season is a lost cause as far as playoffs are concerned, the rest of this season gives the new coaching staff time to correct bad habits, fix loose play, correct failure to finish checks, improve D zone coverage, etc.

We also need to make some roster changes.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Nobody keeps their captain under contract once they ask for a trade. If he wants out, he’s gone.

 

[headup]

Honestly ill say it


All this biased talk all summer, on Twitter, here, comparing to Buffalo Detroit etc, this team is overrated.

They have proven absolutely nothing

Have won absolutely nothing whenever it mattered. Always folded

7 years

Also im sick of Brady looking like a crybaby trying to start shit when we lose. Dude was crying in the media that fans were booing and has been playing like a pylon ever since

Watching this team pisses me off every gam

I think Brady will ask out. I don’t see his dad watching him waste his career away like this without intervening, especially while his brother is killing it.

I agree. He’s already acting like a bitch from a little criticism. His brother did it. He’ll ask for a trade eventually

 

[swiftwin]

Loving how some can't cope with being wrong.

Cope and seethe.

It's one game.....

If people actually expected a vast change in how the players play AFTER NO ACTUAL PRACTIC SESSION?! This speaks more to the level of intelligence on these boards.

Or, they're just trolling. Hard to tell. Either way, grow up.

Y'all promised that firing DJ was going to fix everything. What happened?

You wanted to give DJ more time the start of last season, what happened?

You said we're playing well according to the Deserve-o-meter, what happened?

You said we had better advanced stats and we're not getting bounces, what happened?

You though Dorion did a good job, what happened?

Unlike the strawmen you conjure up, these things actually happened.

 

[Dionysus]

Y'all promised that firing DJ was going to fix everything. What happened?

This is so simplistic. You know many of the posters here thought a new voice was needed, without thinking coaching is the only issue.

These players need to be evaluated. See who can learn and adapt.

First test was a massive fail. Will see how they handle another tough one against Colorado.

 

[DelZottoHitTheNetJK]

Disaster on Ice 23'

 

[Sens Vader]

Good game for Martin and Alfie to see up close

 

[Cosmix]

We wanted him fired at the beginning of the season because we know that if coaching is the issue, it’s going to take more than one day to fix. It’s too late now for anytging meaningful.

For this season and making the playoffs; however, the new coaching staff can work with the players to "fix" what ails them so that next season is not another shitshow!

 

[Xspyrit]

Y'all promised that firing DJ was going to fix everything. What happened?

I have spent the last 4 seasons explaining you the damage being done by having Dorion and DJ Smith as leaders/builders

You're seeing it happening right in front of your eyes. Are you still going to stay in denial?

 

[DaveMatthew]

DJ was a horrible coach. Dorion put together a bad team.

It’s not fixable. It requires significant roster changes.

 

[Adrianopolous]

Would love to hear a breakdown of this game defensively.

 

[Adele Dazeem]

Nobody keeps their captain under contract once they ask for a trade. If he wants out, he’s gone.

I would. Anyone with some balls would. What is he going to do? Not play? Give me a break.

 

[Korpse]

Also what the f*** was Hamonic thinking on the last goal seriously?

What was wrong with Hamonic on that last goal? It’s a rough bounce but he did nothing wrong on that shift.
