Sure, but they also need the results. That’s imperative.
For the players, the process is more important than the result. Hockey is a very probabilistic sport. It's one of the few sports where you can play extremely well but still lose.

I think everyone will focus in on Forsberg, but reality is we should have buried way more of our chances, and been able to kill at least one penalty today. Getting too cute with excessive passes, hardly any dirty goals being scored

The team needs a bit of luck or help to win games

Forsberg was a big fat negative. The biggest problem by far tonight.

But sure I agree. Outside of Norris, Gaudette and Stutzle I don't trust anyone else to shoot the puck with enough velocity to beat a good goaltender and we saw that tonight.

Our PK is definitely a problem.

Lots of relatively inexperienced forwards on it, and our defencemen are just not great.

If people want to watch a team that does not give up chances of the same quality as the palmieri chance then you will be extremely dissapointed no matter who you watch

They don't need help or luck they need an f'ing save.

That would still be the least of our worries.

I'll give you that. If we take care of our own business, we wouldn't have to worry about other teams passing us. What an emotional roller coaster of a 24 hours, compared to last night's game versus today's. Onto the next one.

Yup. People who take time out of their Sunday and post here throughout the game and don't like it when the team loses.

Classic anti fans.

We're all just here to make your game day experience miserable, Swiftwin. Talk about main character energy, eh?
LOL! I'm the one with main character energy? That's rich.

I just find it amusing that people accuse the team of lacking maturity and mental fortitude, when they themselves are infinitely worse in that regard. I'm with Green, I'm focusing on the process.
