Giroux scored his 1st in 11 games tonight.
Our best players have to be our best players and we really aren't getting that , not just Stutzle

What are you talking about, the Branchise has 5 pts in 7 games under Martin, and is a plus 5...

Tim Stützle opens up about his play: 'It's not about getting goals. It's about getting wins'
Stützle has only scored one goal over the past 11 games while Ottawa appears destined to miss the playoffs for a seventh straight season.

Were the players thinking they'd play their entire contract under the same coach?Tim Stützle opens up about his play: 'It's not about getting goals. It's about getting wins'

I know he's a young guy, but it's embarrassing.
Is this locker room culture more toxic than what we saw in 17/18?
It's a different type of toxic, but it might be worse. These guys seem to have zero interest in winning.
Guys like Karlsson and Anderson may have had prickly personalities and did their own thing off the ice, but at least they busted their ass to win games.
Remember when Karlsson ripped into Brassard in that playoff game against the Bruins, and they both responded by scoring a massive 3rd period-tying goal?
That would never happen on this team. Tkachuk would never hold a teammate accountable, and if he did it to Stützle, Tim would sulk for two weeks.

It's definitely more immature. I mean they are young but some of this entitlement seems over the top. And they don't even try to hide it. LOL.
I'd be embarrassed.

I wonder if maybe what he was getting at was without DJ, they wouldn't have earned those contracts, rather than they signed them because they wanted to play for DJ and under another coach they wouldn't have signed?
Weird thing to say otherwise.

Reactions to the quote similar to what we see here.
Its not clear if he meant (A) that they wouldn't have signed if it wasn't for DJ or (B) that DJ helped them get those contracts. It certainly seems like A when he says a lot of guys wouldn't have signed those contracts. I actually was leaning (B) but re-reading the quote it seems like (A)
A lot of the guys wouldn't have signed. Not he helped me earn my contract.. or helped me and others earn it... We wouldn't have signed ...
Almost seems like its been a subject of discussion

If God came and spoke into your ear you’d stare off into space as well.

"And a lot of the guys wouldn’t be here without him. And a lot of our guys wouldn’t have signed those contracts without him."
I take this to mean that DJ transitioned them into star NHL players and made those contracts happen for them. I don't know.. i could be wrong.
This idea that they are pouting doesn't make sense to me. They are bottom 5 in the league. The writing on the wall for DJ has been there since mid November. They all knew it was going to happen. I am sure they were/are sad to see their beloved coach go but I think they are more mad at themselves for not performing better.
At this stage, I am all for the tankathon. Another top prospect to replace Tarasenko/Giroux up front or to bolster our backend is going to pay off big time down the road.

What is he saying? We're not here because we want to win, because we support the team, the ownership, the fans? If not for DJ we wouldn't want to be here? In other words, now that Smith is gone those who signed those contracts no longer want to be here?
I might be amplifying what is actually going on but if he is saying "Do what we want or we won't play here" then there is a problem with only one solution.
I don't know who will be the first to ask for a trade but I think Stutzle will the first moved out.

This one is not from the most recent game so unsure if Bobby was talking about this specific moment, but here’s one from Alfie’s first game

People looking at advanced stats for the small sample since Jacques and Alfie took over .. should be looking at head up their ass per 60... or
Pouts per 60... I don't think the sadness and disappointment they feel is very conducive to high end performance.
These babies just have to get their heads right.
They have new coaches with a different message .. that message stresses details that they were not expected to play , at least to the same extent... They are being asked to do things differently and they are pouting. Not all of them but some key players. They will not find any consistency until they change their mindset to buy in and stop this we wouldn't have signed nonsense

A lot of angst and projection over this quote. Sens fans always looking for something to be upset about.
Let's see how he progresses on the ice under new coaching.

I think it was a different clip. Stu was at the end of the bench by himself and Alfredsson came by and said a few words and Stu was staring into space

It was actually Bobby Ryan, a former player from YOUR ottawa senators that called out Stutzle for not paying attention to Alfie on the bench. I don’t know about you, but I’m probably trusting that a former player knows what’s happening on the bench.
Not your typical ‘sens fans are soft’ hot garbage ppl like to parade around…where there’s smoke, there’s fire

Less worried about Stutzle than some other players.
Glad we have Martin and Alfredsson tutoring him and Sanderson.
