Fixed.

I've had an issue with the team's attitude since they performed a mutiny on Babcock, who, granted, was a bit of an arsole. However, they can check out whenever they like and rarely show that they have extra gear.
I’ve always wondered if the “trust the system” mentality didn’t screw with their heads. Now they don’t seem to know how to take their gsme and force it upon another team.

Also, Tavares is a problem on PP1. Dude loses every puck battle along the boards and really struggles getting to rebounds when he’s the net front guy.
They run the same goddamn play on every PP zone entry.

  1. Enter on the left side
  2. Cross the blueline
  3. Pass to JT on the left wall
  4. Scramble to maintain control because the PK knows EXACTLY that they were going to do it

Burned in the fires of history, and a new team, with real change is resurrected through the ashes.

Based on this team's history what on earth could possibly make you believe that firing everyone and starting over will bring any different result?

If I was a betting man I'd wager the next group that comes in to run this team will do even worse.

But that's for later. Right now, yes, this team can come back and win this series but there's no one on planet earth that believes they're built for a deep run. Not even close. At best they beat Boston in 6 or 7 only to get dumped in 5 again by either Florida or Tampa.

Don't want to see the grit experiment again. Stars do what they usually do and losing to a team that values other things besides intangibles that only 1950's hockey analysts value.
