With Gots still here we’d all be complaining how
bad he is defensively

Sorry, I didn't word my post the best. Dbc is an absolute win and is killing it right now. Kane on his salary is also a win to me. I must've watched that hit by cat at least 20 times by now. I adore our first line. Our d is atrocious outside of 3 players.I think he's saying Kane, DBC, drafting have all been solid, but the shitty free agency signings are negatives.
It seems some guys are more protected from criticism than others.Everyone mad at Gus and Holl, but Seider made the bad play on the second 3rd period PP that started everything going sideways.
I'll take the one really bad play from seider (age 23), over the 10 bad plays we get per game from gus (age 32) and holl (age 33). Should seider be scrutinized for that? Absolutely, but at least he'll learn from it. But the constant garbage from 2 veteran defensemen is a much more glaring problem than a guy that improves every year and eats 25 hard minutes each game.It seems some guys are more protected from criticism than others.
Sooo, can we acknowledge Ed still has a lot to work on with his game?

Right before it happened I was shouting "WATCH THE MAN OUT OF THE BOX" at my tv screen. He clearly couldn't hear me.I honestly didn't really notice holl much, which is great for him. With Gus it's all about that unbelievably boneheaded play in OT that led to the goal. That's the part of the game he's supposed to be good at.

I agree about that. I had more Ed in mind. He makes mistakes a lot, but is never called out on it. He somehow manages to lose the race to the puck when he is closest to the puck near the boards. This happens a lot with him, and should be concerning. It is almost as if he is a bit afraid.I'll take the one really bad play from seider (age 23), over the 10 bad plays we get per game from gus (age 32) and holl (age 33).

Why on earth did Chiarot get sent over the boards in OT? Mo and Ed can handle the 5 minutes taking turns.
ras played well minus no finnishBeen defending Ras for a while. But his game today was shocking, couldn't believe it at times.
Holl somehow looked gassed after 1st shift.
Shitshow.
Boston lost to Anaheim, stop thoseWell the good news is, other than Columbus beating Chicago, Sens and Rangers lost in regulation and Boston lost in OT.
Still shouldn't be out in ot. Seider and ed can both skate and have long reaches. Play them. Even lalonde knew that in ot.is this kind of obligatory Chariot criticism? He is doing just fine.
We are loosing games because of Holl, Gustafsson, Tarasenko and shaky goaltending. Unless those things are fixed are are due to losses like the one last night.
OT Benny became a thing under Lalonde, so not so sure Lalonde knew that.Still shouldn't be out in ot. Seider and ed can both skate and have long reaches. Play them. Even lalonde knew that in ot.
If by doing fine you mean, failed to clear on PK and didn't manage to recover take care of net front man on the first goal, yes he is doing fineis this kind of obligatory Chariot criticism? He is doing just fine.

I would normally agree with you but Edvinsson was brutal yesterdayStill shouldn't be out in ot. Seider and ed can both skate and have long reaches. Play them. Even lalonde knew that in ot.
