Who says coaching is a problem? look at that,trying something different, what a genius! How about trying different shit in pre-season to see how it goes?

Cause MSL doesn’t take criticism from those he wouldn’t seek advice from.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

I think you either have it or you don't, but that's just me. Whatever, he's here for now , by bitching isn't going to change anything... right???

I agree but in some cases what looks like no hockey sense could be partly inexperience and panicking. They can't give him much longer than this season to improve. They could very well be a contender next season.

Humiliation ritual for all the dads.

 

[Gravity]

There will be good nights. There will be bad nights.

We aren't there yet and it's going to be a rough road but I still believe this team is in (or around) the mix.

You just inspired our tank slogan. In the mix for Martone.

 

[Habs]

I'm really hoping they find a way to manicure Arber's 100+ slapshot and in a perfect world all these kids develop

Don Cherry used to say that a blow out loss was the best way to lose a game. I think they come out stronger tonight but the Caps are at home and Ovie likes playing against the Habs.

 

[Grate n Colorful Oz]

Shouldn't we know by now? Barron has been trying to crack the NHL since 2021, and trying to crack one of the league's worst blueline for 3 years with no luck. Is he going to magically turn into something special? He looks like 5-6 bottom pairing dman who can't be trusted in his own zone, isn't phsycial, and not much else. Do we need to develop this or can't we just sign a guy?

Must be frustrating for management as well

I agree that Barron hasn't shown much promise, but he'll turn 23 in two weeks, which is still very young for a D.

Will Ovechkin break Gretzky’s record tonight?

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Maybe the Habs will dress up as a real team and take it to the caps

Pretty good philosophy, if you never seek advice from anyone.

The Robida's effect.

Really like that Dach line, Kapanen cant be worse than Newhook

You just like to challenge the players like that, eh?

 

[Lshap]

Regardless of what you think of Alex Ovechkin, drink in the games he has left. You'll be telling future generations you watched one of the all-time greats as he chased down one of the all-time records.

 

[Milhouse40]

Will be interesting to see tonight.

I really, really like the new lines. It could be a disaster just like it could become something we never anticipated. We can't expect to know what we have in some players by only playing them on the bottom lines.

Heineman is getting a huge opportunity.

The one thing I still want to see and it get to me every single time.
Our most dynamic player offensively out of our 23 players is Lane Hutson.
Get him on that 1st line of PP and even give him the full 2 minutes.

The problem is, the good nights are okay nights and the bad nights are nightmare fuel.

The highs aren't quite high enough and the lows are too low

5-2 versus the Blues, 4-1 vs the Sens. You're exagerating saying the good nights are okay. At the other end of the spectrum, it's a league with higher scores than in the past. Go look at the scores from day to day around the league since the season started. There are plenty of teams with more veterans and less holes that have been pummeled just as bad as the Habs.

We didn't exactly look like the Rangers or the Kraken did vs. us in these games.

Slaf-Newhook-Dach will look like shit. Poor Slaf.
