puckbags 863 Report post Posted March 9, 2016 Does this team want to make the playoffs? If this is the best we can get out of our guys at this point of the year you have to seriously look at the coach. At least with Babs you knew he was putting the fear of god into some of these guys. That was sad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WingsallTheway 383 Report post Posted March 9, 2016 Just for the record, I frequently check GD threads at intermission when we have a bad period, usually more entertaining than the game haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gowings00 545 Report post Posted March 9, 2016 Wow....I guess when these guys hear the phrase "just get in the playoffs" they think that is the goal. Getting owned by Columbus this far. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
matt198913 932 Report post Posted March 9, 2016 It's not like many other Wings are having a stellar season... Most likely due to the fact that they can't get any consistent time with Ericsson and Kronwall hogging the ice with their terrible play. Smith had 10 points in a 8 game stretch, Dekeyser was playing near 25 minutes a night and they were outshooting teams badly before this duo returned. They spend so much time in their own zone it's embarrassing. Get rid of both of them and move on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That was sad. Babcock's teams were in the EXACT same position the last two years, maybe three. Each year we went down to the final few games before locking up a playoff spot. I don't disagree that the coaching is problematic. It is. But lets not romanticize the past. Babcock was just as bad in recent years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

matt198913 932 Report post Posted March 9, 2016 Aside from personally thinking this is a terrible idea, this is not the way the wings do things. Have they improved since he became the captain? All I ever hear is the great leadership of Zetterberg and Kronwall... I don't see it. I see Kronwall constantly in his own zone screwing around. I see Z way past his prime and the team barely limping into the playoffs every year. I want him to show some passion. Show some energy, show some enthusiasm. Not watch your team play like this.

kipwinger 8,524 Report post Posted March 9, 2016 Babcocks teams were also heavily injured, but yet they still made the post season...Blashill & Co don't have that as an excuse. We were heavily injured for one of those years. Actually, we were second in the league. The team that was first won their division and a playoff round. So I think injuries in general aren't a very good excuse. Plus, we haven't missed the playoffs...yet. So you're putting the cart before the horse a bit.

kipwinger 8,524 Report post Posted March 9, 2016 Dude, glorify Babcock all you want. I think we miss Jim Hiller a hell of a lot more than than we do Babs. Give our current team a powerplay that's 2nd in the league and we aren't even talking about missing the playoffs right now. 1 krsmith17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
