He's better than he's playing, maybe it's the team around him bringing him down to a level below what he is capable of. It's really easy to explain why. he is a second pairing dman playing as a number one. He is in over his head, which is no fault of his, but rather the fault of the gutless GM who assembled the roster. 1 Dabura reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wings_fanatic 677 Report post Posted November 6, 2016 I have no idea how blashill can justify icing the exact same lineup after losing 4 games. Oulette and sproul have both shown they deserve to play over marchenko, ericsson and dekeyser. What has sheahan done this year? Absolutely nothing. Mantha should totally be playing. I cannot believe the lame management of this team. No wonder babcock wanted out of here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You got to deal the 1st rounder (with lottery protection) to get the puck rolling. 2 marcaractac and puckloo39 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joesuffP 1,746 Report post Posted November 7, 2016 To justify playing the defensive players so much they should be rock solid. Dekeseyer is a slightly above average defensive player that looks like he should be a good defensemen but doesn't have the fine touch in any aspect of his game. Knee high passes and zero poise with the puck. The guy has all the tools but lacks any kind of moxy. He's pretty much a frail Luke Schenn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LeftWinger 5,153 Report post Posted November 7, 2016 All we know how to do is dump it up the boards and dump it in the zone. s***ty hockey...it's all on the coach. I can't believe that they practice these plays and actually think it'll work in a game. This is worse than dead wing hockey. Going to get swept by Winnipeg and Edmonton....let that sink in.

joesuffP 1,746 Report post Posted November 7, 2016 Just going through the motions. I guess that's what happens when your coach is a characature of Babcock shouting cliches that mean nothing. "Gotta be harder on the puck! Dig deep!" Can't wait for his riveting post game interview. Oh you've lost 5 straight? Have the same answers for why you're a bad hockey team for two years straight Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

marcaractac 3,963 Report post Posted November 7, 2016 At this point Im expecting Holland to be on the phone with Joakim Andersson to try to convince him to come back. because obviously the problem is that we don't have enough fourth line scrubs to put out there every game.

MabusIncarnate 5,359 Report post Posted November 7, 2016 It wouldn't be a bad thing to miss the playoffs, i'm not going to go all doom and gloom barely an 8th of the way through the season, but what bigger wake up call, going into a new stadium, wanting to maximize revenue, than having their worst season in the last 20 years? You would think it would finally motivate them to make drastic changes to better this team and get people excited for the new arena and new season. Idk what to even say, there's little effort, since Vanek has been gone, this team has been dull and seems to not care when they play. It's boring to watch on top of that.
