I dunno, I think he knows they're super fragile (shut up, Mary Poppins fans) right now. He was as harsh as he's ever been a few games before this, and it didn't really work except on maybe Mittelstadt. Now in the wake of the biggest trade of the year, one that shook up the entire frickin' league, he's trying his best to keep spirits up. Again, like the practice schedule, I don't necessarily think it's the right move, but I can see why they're doing it.
Second pairing guys are definitely not healthy and I'm certain the lingering ailments are rife throughout the lineup, they're just desperately trying to tread water until the Four Nations break.

There's 5 games and 10 points to chase before the Four Nations.
We can't go limping into that break; need to win at least 3 of those 5 games.
Again, I don't agree with the strategy, I just think that's their mindset.
Agreed.
I don't think the game last night was as bad as the score. Same with Boston. Just didn't bury the chances and the team is somewhat changed over right now. D and 2C need to be addressed asap to stop the bleeding IMO.
I'm a fan of the new guys though. Necas is a gem holy shit. Drury is fast as f too.

I know today is a travel day and therefore no practice, but I hope to God that we are practicing Thursday and a pre-game skate on Friday before the game.
If I read about some optional bullshit tomorrow, I'm going to lose my f***ing mind.

Wagner was sent down, so we have $4,761,500 in cap space now.

If we lose to the Blues, there needs to be serious questions asked about this coaching and core to get the job done. I want to have a players-only meeting and bring Giguere along with Cogliano in that locker room to break sticks.

He's retired, best I can do is Miller:
“Alright Frail Makar, take a knee and listen the f*** up…”
