kipwinger 8,522 Report post Posted December 30, 2019 Man Tampa blows. Hard not to think that NHL coaching genius John Tortorella developed the blueprint for beating these p*ssies a year ago. At what point is a team no longer "underperforming" and when do they just start "sucking"? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's always good for the Wings, wish they would return the favor Pretty hard to compete with the roster that Steven has assembled. If Wings fans want to see better then it's pretty easy to figure out who's at fault, and if they're ok with tanking on purpose (as we're doing) then half of LGW needs to walk back their comments about teams losing on purpose. I recall a number of folks around there bitching in years past about the draft lottery, and teams tanking, and advocating for the Gold Plan, etc. Will be curious to see how everyone responds now that Lord Steven is losing on purpose.

Your first 4 or 5 posts today were all relentlessly negative and you're calling me out? Lol. Also, I assume you agree that Yzerman is fielding a purposely s***ty team. Otherwise, he should be fired right now for incompetence. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
puckloo39 5,686 Report post Posted December 30, 2019 I don't like Blah-shill... but have come to a point where I don't think this is all his fault. I am not sure any coach can create team chemistry, where there is none. Aside from Bertuzzi and Hronek, our younger guys don't seem to have the hockey sense to match their technical skills. Perhaps that is common with the young ones now. Doesn't help to lose DeKeyser for the season (my take on this situation). And losing Kronner was critical. He was obviously the glue for the D, bad as they were then, it really shows now. 1 Dabura reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You be poppin' in here out of nowhere and doing your "Heh, guess lots of LGWers are looking pretty stupid right about now" thing. I respect the hustle, I'm just saying. As for my thoughts on Yzerman, I honestly don't really care. I never expected him to be a savior and I still maintain that losing on purpose is dumb. Does that mean I think Yzerman should be fired? I mean, no, not really...? But if he gets fired, cool, whatever. The ensuing chaos would be a nice change of pace.
