Can Hank really handle 3 more years of this?
Hank needs to control himself.
Also, rebounds.

IDK, he's such a competitor I wonder if he gets to a point where he's like f it, get me out.He's just mad he got scored on. I used to throw my bat after every strikeout.
Over the course of the 65+ minutes he seemed a lot more relaxed. I think he understands what we're embarking on and he seems to want to be involved.
Fun game. I like this group.
Maybe trade Zucc, other than that I stand pat. 5 picks in the top 45.
Fire the coach. Probably stink next year but continue to improve as much as we can. Try some reclamation projects in UFA and see if one sticks. Give Chytil and Andersson ice time and see what they have. Inflate their Quality of Teammates and put them in a position to succeed. Fill holes in the summer of 2019. Plan to play competitive hockey in the 2019-20 season. If not, fine, but be proactive about this thing.
Rob O'Gara has lost the new player smell. Now it's just dirty suede car seats and undersized cup holders. You'd think players who have no idea how to move the puck can play better defense.

Welcome to the dark side. It's like these past few weeks you've been gradually nudged into seeing the light. Everything you've said there is pretty much what most of us on this side have been saying all along.
McDonagh needed to go because he wasn't an emotional and confrontational captain.
Henrik is too emotional and confrontational.
Stepan needed to go because he told Henrik to relax and focus himself during a game so he also needed to go.
No one is safe.

I've sort of always been on this side, but I'm angry and sarcastic and it doesn't always come across.
When I go against rebuilding, I'm simply against doing what Edmonton and the Islanders do. I'm against it lasting 10 years. I'm against trading players for the sake of trading them.
That's not to say that this can't be done right. It absolutely can. I even think it's off to a good start.
My only real concern is AV. It's not a good reflection on Gorton if he starts 2018-19 behind the bench. "He's there to help the tank" is a **** excuse and the sort of attitude I'm against.

You're lucky you didn't play for some of the coaches I had.
Hank has said all of the right things. I know things are a bit different in the heat of the moment, but we'll see if he can take a full season of this next year.
KeepPositives: DeAngelo and Skjei pairing, Zibanejad w/ Kreider is a different player, and Spooner is a heck of a throw in.
I think a parting of the ways with AV is inevitable. When Gorton made the rounds after the trade deadline, he was very non-committal about AV's status. He was respectful, but, I got no sense that AV was returning.
There's no friggin excuse for that baby behavior. The rest of the team could get hurt by his stupid diva antics. Like I said earlier, Dave Maloney needs to have a talk with him.
I want a top end RHD in this upcoming draft. Boqvist is my guy, but, if Bouchard can be that guy, so be it. Then get me two high end wings.
