Nothing I'm seeing tonight or the last couple of weeks gives me much hope that your prediction is achievable.

That wasn’t a prediction. Just a statement of fact. What the team has to do.
They’re well on their way to the opposite.

Serpa was asked how they would beat the Rangers in that interview. He basically said " The Rangers are skilled but have no structure". He said the Generals have structure and are young. That's coaching. 5 power plays and what 2 shots on net. Said the key is to force the Rangers forwards to play defense. The defense can't play defense! Anyway the Storm just whipped the Knights in London and moved 7 points up. See where this goes in the 3rd. Stinker so far. You can read the bench. These players know this coach is useless.

For the first time I'm actually feeling they won't make the playoffs. Dennis needs to be out of here in an hour no matter the outcome of this game.

Guelph beats London. I guess the idea is to have a larger gap to come back from so it looks more impressive?
I can't see any player in that dressing room listening to anything Dennis says.

It might actually be better at this point not to listen to Dennis.

Who’s taking over? MM? Is he bringing Petizian with him? This team has no heart!
And our goaltending is ordinary at best.

Watching this game as a neutral, it looks like a bunch of players who have never played together in the blue jerseys. A shocking lack of cohesion, chemistry, structure, etc. The coach should definitely go.

What I've read about CD, is he comes from a long line of established hockey family throughout the GTA. We all know that the McKenzie family is deeply entrenched in GTA hockey. Was there some connection that deep proper vetting wasn't involved and basically just gave a video coach the job?
Normally a coach would be fired by now or even tonight. I know MM has done great as a coach, but is his heart in coaching? I believe he wanted to concentrate on his GM duties. There's still plenty of scouting he may want to do with having 2 first rd picks.

I think Mackenzie needs to do whatever it takes to save his job at this point. His trades, his team, his coach. He's responsible 100%.
Yup…MM job has to be on the line and future reputation.

Which includes his coaching staff which was the problem from the start.

If this game is a L which it is shaping up that way, there is a chance Kitchener could be tied for dead last in the west as early as Monday at 4pm as I saw somewhere.
Our secret ingredient, patience wasn't there tonight loll
Credit to Oshawas goalie but if a team with Rehkopf, Mesar, Pinelli, Arcuri, ZHilkin, Martin, can't beat an .836 save percentage, you deserve to miss the playoffs lol

Pretty sure Chris Dennis is going to be asking for donations to "Save a wildlife, Kitchener Rangers 100% effort guaranteed" crowd sourced fund the way things are going.
The hell does he have on Mike McKenzie?

Dennis has no clue. From the post game interview - Thought they played a good first period. Thought the defensive coverage was good. Says the team is built to score goals not for defense.
They don't have a prayer. It's like he doesn't even watch the game

The goalie that beat the Rangers has one win this year. Make that two. This shows you how bad this team is at the moment. Mark Methot was on commenting the Rangers have no net front presence. Also said when the PP is not performing change it up. Dennis is oblivious. Guess him and McKenzie will stay up and watch videos tonight.
If I get my Christmas wish you can interview Ted Dent for the HC or GM position on Monday evening. Good luck!
imagine destroying your next 2/3 seasons to go all in this year and then missing the playoffs lmao. What a disaster of a season thus far. Hard to imagine coach has a job after this weekend

Thing is, I don't think MM will do it. He's had windows of opportunity. I think we're stuck with him.

I witnessed Sudbury Saturday Night live and in person. That was slightly worse IMO.
