Yup we're gonna lose most of the time against more mature teams with better rosters. People shouldn't be shocked.
PIT LAK NYI BOS are more mature for sure. Does this mean MtL should be outplayed like that every game ? No way. This team is not playing hockey at this point.

Missing slaf and ghule, Laine, demidov and reinbacher on the way (next year) losing to a cup contender. Leafs just got destroyed 6-2 by the f***ing Blue jackets.😂 Chin up. The season is young.
If you can t see the difference between losing some games over the course of a 82 game season vs showing nothing at all in 6 of 7 games I am not sure what to tell you. Having some fans satisfied with the current product on the ice is part of the issue by the way, if mgmt, coaching staff, medias and fans are all happy, nothing will change.

Just like nothing changed for 10 years with bargain bin when everybody was subdued and satisfied by the sweet lies of RDS and the Carey Price show? Those days "in the mix" were miserable, I much rather tank and rebuild properly.

I think we're rock bottom here, but I'm not sure how much better things can get this year.

First time I'm saying it in the MSL era, but we might need a new coach. The team doesn't look like a team.

I agree about this regarding the 10 Bergevin years. For me this is not a proper rebuild however. I have never cared about the mix they mentioned : what I want to see is progress, sure you will lose to the Rags but let s make it a game, let s make it close don‘t lose it 7-2 because you never had the puck.

Let s not forget that the 1st line this game are in their D+6-D+8 years, they are not rookies. You don t need 10 years of 5OA to be a cup contender.

I don’t know that the score reflects the game we had chances, every time there was a missed call or an error it ended up in the back of our net… but the goal on the icing and Barron getting layed Out you can’t find better example of guys not being aware and a focus… Monty signaled it was going to be icing both D slow down and get caught, but Monty isn’t even ready for the shot… Trouba make contact to the head but Barron going in head first you have to know who is infront of you and not put your self in a dangerous position…

Rebuilding is building.

What the f*** are they building if they can’t play serious, big boy hockey at this point?

Trouba make contact to the head but Barron going in head first you have to know who is infront of you and not put your self in a dangerous position…
Barron so afraid of contact he doesn’t even consider someone could hit him. Hitting just doesn’t exist in his conceptual sense of hockey.

If you can’t handle contact, you’re not an NHLer. He’s not an NHLer.

45-23 shots, how is the score unfair ?
