Then you need to brush up on your definition of panicking.

Saying you see a lot of similar issues of last season like you predicted (in a calm manner I might add) is not panicking. It's not an overreaction either nor is it5 lying.

That's the problem. No one is freaking out lol they're just discussing...and you disagree with them, therefore accuse them of panicking because they simple describe something different than your opinion. That's it.

We were 6-2 in the preseason last year. We were 5-3 the year before. Preseason means jack shit. It's a time for decent teams to iron out kinks and ease into the regular season.

Comparing how a preseason team looks to how a regular season team looks is a joke.

Ok. So then why are we watching if not to see how the team is shaping up?

Why do we have a thread to discuss it?

Because individuals players can look faster, or have an improved shot, look noticeably stronger,etc.. We can also get a small sense of HOW a coach wants to play. But the quality of play means nothing until the games matter.

I agree with you that the game doesn't matter.

I just don't see how noticing similar issues that plagued the team last season are still present in the preseason is panicking. It is what it is.

Some people have just said "were not going to improve until we fix those things" and then noticing through the start of preseason that those things are still happening.

It doesn't mean they will keep happening next week, but also doesn't mean people are panicking by pointing it out.

It's just noting things. That's what everyone is doing.

Just needs Giroux to bring more balance to the top 6. Norris could use a playmaker on his wing, so Batherson would slide down to his line probably.
