He plays like a zombie. I don't get it. Even his skating has regressed...which tells me he's not mentally engaged.

At some point he needs to look in the mirror & decide if he wants to get to the next level.
Team has so few guys that stand up for themselves. I can understand that for Bread, Chytil and Fox but its like 70% of the team.

Bread is back to fumbling pucks and trying dangerous cross ice passes that usually end up going the other way
I feel like he plays the exact same way pretty much 100% of the time and it's effectiveness has more to do with A) How other teams defend it and B) If we're ahead of behind in the game.

Carolina, for example, has the book on how to defend Panarin with the lead.

This team lacks 2 types of finishers. The ones that score golden opportunities and the ones that finish scrums. Want to start shit? Pay a price. Instead we miss open nets and roll over when pushed on.

Every scrum like that makes Drury more likely to trade Laf for Brady Woodchuck.

You guys are really getting worn down by this team.

Barely any complaining about Lindgren skating all the way to the point for some reason, falling down, gets back up to cover no one. At least he had a great view of the goal.

only saw a few mins here or there bc we're starting "Tummy Time" but rangers looked okay. Edstrom is a menace and Berard fed Fox in front beautifully. i missed both goals tho

good period?

You are right. Can't be a bunch of pushovers. Have some pride. There have been small guys that would raise their sticks as a deterrent. Don't just stand there. Help yourself and your teammates.

PK was right. Need more guys to show emotions. The NHL is a business but the game isn't. Robots will never win.

We don't a Alpha. We need multiple Alphas. Guys that say bleep this. Im not taking anymore crap.
