I mean, we are missing our best PKer and possible our best PMD for the PP (warts and all), no wonder our special teams are suffering.
Still, we should then be extra careful to avoid those stupid penalties in the o-zone. And it's not just Kelly and Batherson either, Greig had one too; we just don't talk about it because Colorado didn't score on that one.

Should have got something out of four games in this stretch.
Against the Leafs, Stars, Coyotes and Avalanche. Not getting even a loser point is why we're so low in the standings. Frustrating to say the least.

Crookshank also had a hooking penalty early resulting in the first goal against.

He kind of saved a goal on that play though

@AchtzehnBaby is rubbing off on you
Let’s see what an angry and determined Brady looks like under the tutelage of JM and Alfie.
I have no doubts that Brady is willing to do and play however is needed to drive this team to wins.

DJ wasn't getting results, there are lots of things to criticize him about, I just find it interesting when people aren't consistent with what's worthy of criticism, everyone seems real upset that I pointed out Martin said similar things to DJ, and yet only DJ gets criticized.
Glad DJ is is gone, I just think it never mattered what DJ said, he'd run his course, fans were going to complain no matter what he said.

I don’t think it really ever matters what the coach says in the media, it’s all theatre for the fans. True feelings and thoughts are shared behind closed doors.
The coach was eventually fired, to late or not, because he was unable to continue to get the expected results from the young team as they developed.
It’s the same thing that happens to every coach eventually, and they all say the same things after the losses start to mount.
It’s nice to have JM and Alfie to focus on defending and details, even if it is just for the interim until the new GM and coaching staff arrive. Both guys are well situated to slide over into their respective front office jobs if needs be.

Here's to hoping big Walt pulls Brady aside after Xmas dinner and tells him whats up
Jason York alluded to this recently. JM is quiet on the bench. Sure isn't in the room!

I keep seeing the neck taped up as well, so it does seem like he is going through a few things.

I guess until Martin uses them as one of the primary excuses for a prolonged period of time then the comparison and criticism might be a bit more warranted and understandable.

Connor Brown and Nick Paul were pretty good too. Those were the days my friend, we thought they'd never end....

I think it's more likely they'll go 8-25.
Yup. He should have just skated as fast as he could to get back into the play. Bad decision by him.
They are coming back to the area between the D zone faceoff circles and watching the puck carrier. They are not checking or marking a man. Its a zone defense down low with 3 Fs in it. The other teams scouts know it and other teams take great advantage of it.
I think the rules should allow one freebee each game. Similarly 1 freebee for shooting the puck out of the rink from your D zone. It would be like the football yellow flag: do it again and . . .
Add one more and you have "The Three Stooges"!

Anyone PVR the TSN broadcast?
If so there was an exchange on the bench between Alfie and Giroux in the 1st period I think can you capture that clip?

I thought they played pretty well in the game against Colorado. It wasn't mistake free, but the Avs are a top team and right up their with the best in the league, so that has to be a consideration. If they play like that, they will win some games.
Norris has regained his form, so that helps. Chabot, Pinto and Joseph will get back into the lineup, and Martin & Alfie's coaching will start to take hold at some point.
A top 10 pick will really help though, especially if they pick in the top 5.
