Is Maurice mismanaging goaltender starts? Helle seemed way tired in the post season last year. We have the best backup in the league year to date and he isn't even on track to get 18 starts. I'd like to see Bro get 25 starts (said it a month or so ago), but if he's lucky he'll get 20. Seems like we haven't learned from what happened last year.
Something I dislike about our coaching staff is how completely inflexible they seem.
It's been pre-decided that Helle will start X number of games, so that's going to happen no matter what.
Wheeler and Scheifele will be linemates. Nothing could happen that would split them.
Petan will not play, no matter how well he does.
Morrow will play, no matter how poorly he plays.
Laine and Little will play together. ELL will be a line for 80 games because that's what we've practiced. CLL is the new line and it will stick regardless of how it plays.
Lemieux is in now. Hope he improves because he's not getting dropped, ever.
Perreault is a bottom sixer and that's the way it is.
It seems like there is zero creativity or adaptability.
