They'll fire Marty at some point, and then we'll get hot with Monty and RHP going tankbuster and ruining everything right at the end.
there's no Celebrini/Bedard this year, maybe Misa for me is close to Celebrini.

McKenna is in that tier but he’s only eligible next year so we’ve mistimed it once again.
Go look at every other rebuilding team in NHL history, this is the norm not the exception.
Coming from you, a level headed thinker, that says alot.
I was really hoping we'd be there around February. Did the Laine injury really break all their backs this badly?
Anyway we clearly won't even be "in the mix" so let's go for another top 5.
My gf will be happy to get most game nights back to watching stupid tv series instead.

We should not be this bad. Just no way all these guys forgot how to make a pass or shoot the puck. Everyone looks off, it’s not just one guy.They'll fire Marty at some point, and then we'll get hot with Monty and RHP going tankbuster and ruining everything right at the end.

Thanks man. I’m so sad about the year. I thought we’d improve but it’s so brutal.
I hope we turn it around. I’d rather we progress than tank. But if we’re going to be awful, a high pick is a nice consolation prize.

Obviously. I don’t think late gen y and gen z will see a 100 points habs player in their adulthood at this rate
How does every player look worse than last season (exception are the 1st year guys of course)?
I am still bewildered as to how massive the regression is.

Thank god Belzile and RHP got those points in 2023, we didn’t need Bedard.They'll fire Marty at some point, and then we'll get hot with Monty and RHP going tankbuster and ruining everything right at the end.
Who will play spoiler this year, I wonder…

The system?
We saw what happened to the Oilers last year. It got the coach fired. They went on to have a crazy win record and almost won the cup.
I don’t think we need to fire MSL but we need to change something. If he changes the system… great. If not, I think he’ll wind up getting sacked.

Some think it is par for the course of a rebuild. But that’s just a lazy assumption.
The mass regression is a coaching/tactics thing. It could be the case they roar awake and start soaring again with a shakeup. They’re not this bad, we all know it.

We are this bad. Rebuilds take 5-8 years. As happens to most coaches, MSL's messaging may have grown old in year 3 although it's still too early to tell.

I think MSL is still a good coach. At the very least he will survive this season and Gorton/Hughes will give him the ammunitions next season to prove himselfThey'll fire Marty at some point, and then we'll get hot with Monty and RHP going tankbuster and ruining everything right at the end.

Right. But we shouldn’t be.
I think the system needs to change.
