I have never seen a team fall from grace so fast.

Can the wingers ever get the puck out cleanly to even start an attack?

The reason there's no offense is because every line spends so much time in their own zone and every time they dump it in, there's no pressure and the other team breaks out like it was nothing.

Fuck, if I was management I would start hiring some goons to coerce some of these guys to waive their NTC.

Kassian did make a great effort to cover for the D. The issue wasn't that he couldn't catch Seguin... the issue is he drifted off behind the net all by himself to allow Benn to tap it into an open net. That goal wouldn't have happened if he stopped in front of the net like he was supposed to.

I don't actually blame Torts for making him earn his spot. The kid's hockey IQ and defensive awareness is low.

That's a tough play for a freight train to turn on a dime like that though Hank. Either way the play started because of boneheaded pinch by 23. He really had his head up his ass there. Bieksa is a veteran player... him waving at the puck and not covering the front of the net is a weak defensive play

Boneheaded plays by 23? That I will agree with!

...and Bieksa has been making boneheaded plays his entire career. The guys we need to get rid of all using their NTC leverage. Fuck.

This is so awful. This team is a shadow of it's former self.

Too bad really, we could be looking at Reinhart or Ekblad if this slide started earlier. Right now, we are the worst team in the league!
Come on Nucklehead...join the dark side!

Count down the picks! :devil:

Wow way to fire up the team Burr... get ragdolled. At least he didn't bite anyone.

Torts is a retard. Some of thees line combos and d pairings make zero fucking sense. It looks like the man is just pulling names out of a bloody hat. I hate to say this but AV looks pretty good right now and I am no fan of him. This trainwreck is on management, coaching and the players. I guess we could say 1/3 , 1/3, 1/3 . Hopefully someone pays for this in the next few months. Aquilini cannot be happy watching this mess of a season and the last two playoff seasons where his team got ass raped.
