Montreal's roster may be worse than ours actually.

This is their projected line up

Drouin-Domi-Armia
Tatar-Danault-Gallagher
Hudon-Plekky-Byron
Chaput-Peca-Ward

Jesus that top 6.

I don’t want to be over critical on players that I want to like .

But considering the expectations I had, I think Jake Virtanen has had a just dreadful preseason.

I don’t know guys, I have watched so many hockey games in my long long long life, Maybe I shouldn’t be critical about anything in the preseason, and just say f*** it

Make my day.
Gaudette has looked decent I feel.

I have seen anything that makes me want to keep him up. He's not bad but he's not getting much done either (nobody is). Best thing would be AHL time with a bigger role, gets some points, build on that next season.

I've only noticed Goldobin once through two periods when he lost a board battle and just seemed completely overwhelmed. I honestly think if he was eating an ice cream bar on the street. I could walk up to him, ***** slap him, take his ice cream bar. And he'd stare at me with the same confused look he seems to display every time he loses a board battle... which is every time he goes into a board battle.

The fire just isn't there. If Motte had Goldy's skill he'd be a star.

Montreal, Ottawa and Vancouver are going to be racing to the bottom. I think Ottawa will suck more than us just because that organization is just a raging dumpster fire while ours is just a bureaucratic dumpster fire that's been a slow burn for half a decade. We can't even be the best at sucking. But it should be a putrid race to the bottom.

Once again, the man is trying to keep Canada down with 50% of their teams being whatever this hockey hell is.

Goldy has been given every oppertunity in the world to make this team.

He has completely blown it, after 1 good game.

Hilariously, gagner has had a decent game, involved.
Troy has easily been our best player.

Boeser is still in his Hyperbolic time chamber

Has Virtanen done anything in the pre-season????

I'm dont think I have seen all his games, but I cannot remember him doing anything of relevance.
He skated in a circle behind the net a dozen times, does that count?

Am i just being overly critical here? Or justified?

Realistically I'm not going to think about Boeser until we're 20 games into the season. It looks like it's going to take that long for him to get back up to speed.

West Vancouver
Ugly turnover caused a goal
Oh well, not surprise

Juolevi should be harder on Kopitar, but consider he was chasing after the forward turn it over, meh

Gudbranson skating in quicksand. God he is so unlikable. Also, Juolevi looked like trash there. Just stops skating and doesn't even try. What the hell was that
