I’m truly torn right now. Should I be hoping they blow this abomination up completely or should I hope that they keep this phenomenal tank job going…..
It's too late to turn this around this year. They would need a better run than they did last year. At this point if you are Trotz you start the rebuild, blow it up, keep the coach until the end of the year and get a top 5 pick.

I dont know how many more games we can go without a shakeup, and I dont think we'll find a trade partner for a major move this early. Bruno firing is looking more and more likely, and soon.
5 games until thanksgiving, 29th place with Anaheim winning so could be 30th, .361 point percentage. 23 points if we win out, after that I'm rooting for the tank.

If there are any positives right now, it's certainly the PK, along with Saros rebounding after a pretty mediocre season. Kinda funny to think that he was the question mark before this season started

Near where sand and waves meet.
5on5 scoring is on pace for about 86 goals for in that situation ... the team's worst 5on5 scoring pace since the league started tracking by strength. 75 is the lowest total but that was in a 48 game season.

The current system and lines aren't working. Insanity is doing the same thing over and over, expecting different results. Bruno and Barry are certifiable at this point.

Forsberg is still very good. The kid line is showing us good signs every night. ZLH is going to be a good player for us in about a year. I was very hard on MDG after seeing one very bad play in the preseason and he has impressed me. Saros is much better than last year. If Gus had linemates that could bury the puck, his numbers would be much improved. The PK.

Other than that, I've got nothing.

And just to add to this a bit, Saros has actually been pretty good (not really a surprise). If they could just pick up the scoring pace a bit we’d likely be having a different conversation right now.

Forsberg has basically been invisible in the last two games. He started pretty well but he's kind of slid down into mediocrity the longer the season has gone on.

The only signs of life this team has offensively right now are the 3rd and 4th line and of course they are getting the least ice time night in and night out.

He has Stamkos, aka the cooler, on his line now.

I was referencing the season as a whole in regard to Fil and Juice.

We can rip on stamkos because yeah it has been a let down but also.... he is 3rd on this team for goals. Maybe this team just sucks
Oh it sucks but I still believe the coach trying to force a style of play his team can't play effectively is taking it from a bubble team to the bottom of the league. You take a guy like Trotz, set them up to play good defensive and north/south hockey and things probably get way better.

Brunette having the Dmen drive down and the forwards cover is basically killing any offense we might can generate. If every Dmen was Josi from 2 years ago it might work, but even Josi hasn't been capable of that this season.

Yep.

It's like his car ran out of gas, so he keeps stomping on the accelerator insisting he'll make it to grandma's house for turkey.

PS: So far this team is historically bad.
