Are we going to keep ignoring the elephant in the room? Yeah this team lacks talent, but they lack structure, accountability and in-game adjustments. He’s not a good coach.

The admin team will continue to work on existing issues, templates and upgrade all necessary available addons to minimize impact of this new version. Click Here for Updates
...he was a good fit at the start to get the kids intergrated; a good positive influence on a team starting a rebuild...that Phase should be over now, it's time to bring in someone who'll give them a kick in the arse when they need it...who'll bring structure to unstructured kids...we need a tougher approach now...

The issue is a lot of the core and key guys we drafted haven't even made the show yet. Still have Reinbacher, Demidov, Hage, and our first this year coming in over the next year or two. Rebuilds are just longer than fans want them to be.

...the problem isn't that we're gonna be a few years away from contending cuz we are rebuilding; the issue is that the Stage we should be at in said rebuild is not where we are atm...there's absolutely no structure in our game...no accountability...mind-boggling decisions at crucial parts of games...he's a great "Get You on Yor Feet" coach...that Stage is over...
...I wasn't...y'all have put up with my whining about Marty since I came back here a few weeks ago, even when we were winning...I like Marty, he was a great coach to get a rebuild started in a positive way...now it's time to move on to the tough work of Structured, winning hockey...
That is a bad excuse :
Suzuki CC Dach Newhook are all D+6/D+8 that is 2/3 of a top 6 that are considered core players / were traded to be core players. Armia Evans Anderson are bottom 6 guys you could easily fit on contender rosters (regardless of the fact that two of them are paid too much). Slaf is a 1OA in his D+3 deemed good enough to earn 8m contract who has been playing against men for 4 years.
Guhle is in his D+5, Xhekaj same thing, Carrier is a good third pair guy, Matheson would be a good top 4 on many Teams, Hutson is supposed to be an elite playmaker in his D+3 (granted 1st pro season is a good excuse).
This is not the typical roster of a Team in the third/fourth rebuild year.
