This year's Winter Classic will be a complete dud !

[tailgunner]

The Winter Classic always has 2 quality teams playing each other that are playoff bound and sometimes elite teams. By the time we get to January 1st, the Rangers will be in 28th place and the Sabres in 30th place. Who the heck is going to bother to watch this slugfest?

I am.

Hopefully AV is gone before this game.

AV being gone is not going to solve a damn thing, they might be even worse with AV gone, the players are old and slow, no coach is going to fix that!

This slugfest is better without AV.

Is Lundqvist going to be a .920 SV% goalie once AV is gone? Is the defense going to magically become better once AV is gone? Did we miraculously solve our center depth problems once AV is gone?

I don`t know why we need to have two different topics about an bottom table outdoor game. Gorton and his pro. scouts thought Chytil was ready this year which explain our center depth - instead we should get the #30 pick last summer.

Yes, we need a new main coach in my opinion, Sutter or someone qualified for that position. We had the worst start since 1960/61.

Playing zone under a sane coach could easily make the d better and therefore Hank better as the d in front of him won’t be a disaster.

The team is neither old nor slow.
