And that still won't send a messageThing is if they trade Rantanen at the deadline you know damn well he’s gonna go to wherever and light it up
If we trade Rantanen and he lights it up, that wouldn't be a good thing for the future of our current coaching staff. You don't want talented players consistently breaking out once they leave hereThing is if they trade Rantanen at the deadline you know damn well he’s gonna go to wherever and light it up
This has been an underperforming team all year let’s be real, hot start was propped up by a strong power play in October and a hot start from Necas. Been a team that have been stuck on a spectrum of bad to decent since Thanksgiving. Aho and Svech look like non impact players who aren’t even close to passing any sort of eye test when it comes to tilting the ice and have only picked up points during individual moments of skill shining through.
I think it’s fair to say we’ve reached a point where we’re allowed to say that the coaching staff as constructed isn’t living up to the billing of getting the best out of a talented group. Doesn’t mean Rod has to go necessarily, but they might have to go against his wishes and force him to get in some real x’s and o’s guys on the staff.
And even if you are too chicken shit to break the streak, play him 3rd line minutes and give someone else to Slavin.F*** the iron man streak. This team is in free fall right now.
