The team has had a ridiculous ached and injuries are starting to pile up.

There’s nothing wrong with their conditioning.
The team barely had injuries, especially compared to before and even other teams in the league.

I didn't say there's anything wrong with their conditioning, they aren't getting motivated to go from the drop of the puck

habs are still too soft, with too many small guys who can't or are unwilling to crash and forecheck. Slaf, Dach and Laine - sometimes maybe. RHP, caufield, newhook, gallagher not big enough to do it. Dvorak f***ing indifferent..Anderson injured...Emil injured...team still not built properly for consistent success
There was a play near the end of the 2nd period where a Wild player was winding up behind the net and skated with 2 feet of Slaf and Slaf could have step right into him but didn't.
 
No, he was not, giving almost two late 1st round picks for someone like Newhook is atrocious.
How is the 31st and a second almost like two firsts? Wouldn’t that be more like two seconds?

And those are exactly the kind of aggressive trades you want your GM to make. We dealt a 2nd and. A late first for a mid first prospect. Absolutely nothing wrong with that risk.

Not every move will work out. Newhook@/ been disappointing this year and he may not stick with us, but honestly that’s okay. We have more packs than we can handle and bundling them for prospects is alright. Some will work out and some won’t.

Laine still isn’t healthy. Dach has just put his game together and we’ve now lost two players on the past two weeks.

We just went through the most gruelling schedule we’ve seen in forever and done really well. For weeks the best teams in the league have been playing us and it’s not surprising at all that we’d be exhausted.

They’re playing really good teams. Minnesota is a grind you to hell team. We just faced the best goalie in the league and before that it was the Devils.

I honestly can’t remember a tougher stretch of games ever. It was insane.
