Post-Game Talk: Mike Sullivan Hockey Baby!

[Honour Over Glory]

This coach is such a dipshit...he has no answers.

“It got away from us,” Mike Sullivan said. “We lost details. We were losing assignments on faceoffs. What’s going to get us out of this is collective effort.”

I think the funniest is Yohe's clear narrative to blame Karlsson on things that weren't just his fault, but a team collapse that led to Karlsson in a bad spot doing not so good things, but even Sullivan could see through Yohe's dumb ass.

“Yeah, I think he does,” Sullivan said. “I think we need a higher level of play from a lot of guys. We’re a team in the true sense of the word. This isn’t on one guy. It’s on all of us.”

Like this f***wit wants to blame all the problems on Karlsson. There was that one goal where Doc & Sid turn the puck over and hangs Karlsson out to dry, Yohe thinks that's Karlsson's fault that he didn't anticipate Sid and Doc being idiots and Miller cheating way the f*** up the ice.

LOL

Letang has struggled in the early going, but Karlsson’s struggles have been particularly profound.

And yet, he couldn't be more wrong.

Idk if you heard the pregame show, but they let it slip that “big changes are coming if they lose this game”.

Never heard them say it so confidently before.

It'll be more of the same, moving players as the excuse rather than firing the coach like they need to.

Missed the game but watching the highlights and Karlsson looks so bad defensively. So damn soff

"What’s going to get us out of this is collective effort.”, said Dear Leader Nikita Khrushchev Mike Sullivan while introducing yet another of his five-year plans.

Oh come on. What an exaggerated comparison. You're being unfair...to Khruschev!

 

[Pens x]

Embarrassing ownership group, awful front office and a putrid coaching staff.

Its crazy just how bad Dubas and Sully are at their jobs.

 

[Le Magnifique 66]

So, is he fired yet?

 

[BHD]

I loled when I saw the Miller goal.

So, is he fired yet?

Didn't Tom Werner from FSG just say Sullivan was a top-3 coach in the NHL 2 weeks ago?

Sully isn't going anywhere lmao

Top 3 coach lol. That was his pocket talking..

Wish Vancouver ran up the score a bit more. Sullivan not going anywhere after a 4-3 loss.

It is insane that individual games even matter at this point. Look at the overall body of work in the last 5 years. He richly deserves to be fired.

 

[Whyme]

Sorry for a Finnish aspect, but as two of your players are from my home team I've been following them more closely.

So far Blomqvist has obviously been the best goalie and his save% is clearly higher and actually surprisingly good (0.911%) under this situation. I wonder why he was played in the game they were scheduled to lose anyway and rested in the game where points could've been available.

Another thing is Puljujarvi. I don't remember another time when someone has been healthy scratched or demoted to the 4th line after such a promising start to the season. Not saying it has never happened, but it must be very rare.

Then again, it seems there's not a single fan that doesn't want Sullivan fired so all the questionable moves he keeps making might (finally) be working towards this goal.

What changes???? Lemme guess…Practices will now be optional instead of mandatory???

For real though, Bag skate em’ all every day for a month. Who cares if they puke.

Watching their effort makes us sick….

Graves is fine this year. He should take Grzelcyk's spot and rejoin the top-4 imo.

That’s a sure fire way to make him not fine.
