Maillet

Beamish already to line 1 lol. Would not of taken Karimov off that line where he just had 2G but whatever. No Johnston.

Shocked to see Maillet start. I know Surzycia been playing a lot but he was great vs BRMP last time & they have the best line in the league. Day off tomorrow too.

Better see a better effort tonight.

Now beamish to 1st line tonight lol just saw some spit in Wainwright's and
Di iorio's face. That is what they call coaching and building confidence and keeping it in his players that have battled for him. Beamish Come on in get all the ice we will play you 1st line if you come. lol karimov on second line after had his best game. This coach plays mental games with his players. As it seems he is grasping at straws I'm sure he feels the heat, and rightly he should.
Not sure how can expect much when 3rd line only line the same but let's just see if beamish is on pp1 too. Hope it's worth the drive tonight. Keep eye on letang if he is checked out leaning on back wall all game or has energy as team takes identity of coach and we are what he is.

Best period in a month. Great stuff. Top line has some real chemistry already. Maillet very sharp. Gotta keep it up!

 

[StingUpdates]

So.
Unbelievably.
Maddening.

Brown is putting together one of the unluckiest years in awhile. Dude had multiple grade A looks & set up a few and has nothing. Very loud F bomb going off his final shift.

This game is very similar to Ottawa. Great 1st. Bad but not awful 2nd. Then the 3rd was an atrocity. See if they follow that same path in the 3rd.

 

[StingUpdates]

Not even sure what to say. Probably their best loss in awhile. Played fairly well vs a good team. Ivankovic made some amazing saves.

But once again they finish the game on the PP this time with a chance to tie it and they don't. Letang doesn't use his timeout AGAIN. Waits until just under 2 minutes to pull the goalie.

Maillet was really strong. I liked the F lines tonight. I'm sure they'll be changed for Sunday. Defensively pretty strong.

Honestly wasn't blown away by Martone like I was expecting, but still an incredible talent.

Had they won WED like they should've I wouldn't be too upset. But they didn't & now blow a 2-0 lead to lose.

Team is sinking. Fast.

 

[stingwagoner]

Didn't like the letang call putting beamish out take faceoff 20 seconds left in own end. Just not the time for that. Result goal, not on beamish just bad call by letang. Was great 1st period then slowly downhill left poor fischer on for last 2 mins could barely skate to retrieve puck.
We didnt get entirely outplayed but still something didn't seem right. Pp well what more can we say poorly coached.pk was pretty solid though but I think that's on the boys for wanting it.

 

[stingwagoner]

Mailett was solid tonight, brown was flying and working hard just no pick luck pretty wild how fast letang lost interest in Edward's just pushing him down. Was playing alot better as a centerman, now seems like doubting himself or something.

Team is sinking. Fast.

This team has to be leading the league. In goals allowed in the 1st min of a period and the last min of a period.

 

[stingwagoner]

We have most games played and in last in our division yet 3rd last in conference.and 4rh last in league. Alarm bells yet? We are not making playoffs at this rate and fans will fall off slowly. Legwand I'm sure is keeping an eye

 

[StingUpdates]

9 games until Christmas.

We get to see what kind of owner Legwand is. If they go 2-7 there has to be changed. Assistants. Letang. Whatever. Has to be.

They are 2 points out of a playoff spot and OS has 3 games in hand. This is inexcusable even with that 8 game trip from hell.

They've gotten great goaltending. Their rookies have been sensational. Their vets have been pretty strong.

This falls on the coaches & I'm not sure how it's arguable. Awful PP. Awful PK. Awful 4on4. Awful 3on3. Awful late game. Awful to start games. Regression among 17 yr olds. Every red flag you can have.

I vote for stingupdates, JAMER and stingwagoner to take over the coaching duties because they seem to know the most about hockey and how to turn this team around.
