I beg to differ we are paying for this $@$% Can we get rid of Darling and all the coaches (Tonight?)![]()
Darling, lined up with the shooter’s torso rather than the puck.
A very simple understanding of geometry is all he needs here.
This is not acceptable at the pro level.
That slow-mo clearly showed Darling squaring up with Vesey’s torso, not squaring with the puck.
That’s just... I mean... that’s... that’s pee wee ****. What in the ****ing world.
They deserve to sit and watch those hats fly. Pathetic excuses for hockey players.
His size doesn't matter when he plays like a blind, disabled midget with an attitude problemHe's 6 foot 6...... he takes another step or two out, there's zero net to shoot at.
It's not like he had to play the pass and Vesey was a left shot on the left wing side. He had no other move except to shoot the puck.
Like, he looks like my brother when he plays Men's League without goalie skates.
sure, you just can't put in zykov in place of ryan. they play diff. positions
You know I never looked at it that way, but I think you've really hit on something.

Honestly, you remove Darling and Ryan from this game, replace with something average, and it's probably a W for the canes. Darling and Ryan have been the weakest link for so long now I can't remember. Ryan was doing ok for a bit, but dropped off a cliff somewhere yet continues to get what 15-20 minutes a night? Darling is still on our team somehow with an attrocious showing for months. I can't even believe he's still getting games.
I honestly feel bad for the guy, not having much to work with for four seasons, but I don't see how it can be argued that he's part of the solution. He's showed zero ability to motivate and prepare his team. He's shown that he'll play favorites over more deserving players. He's a dial tone. There's just nothing there. The only thing keeping me going is that I'm 99.9% sure he's gone once we get a new GM.
He also continues to play Ryan even though Ryan has been horrendous for 50 something games nowPart of me says “yeah but he put this motley bunch of players in absolutely EVERY position to win this game, and it was torpedoed by the worst goaltending in the NHL.”
The other part of me says “yeah but Peters picked the god damn goalie”.

Yep. In Bloodborne the pain and suffering will typically build to you being better at the game, and you’ll feel pride for improving.I should have played Bloodborne instead.
Guys, I'm really starting to not love this whole Scott Darling situation. I know it's a 4 year deal but I say if he doesn't improve in the next 2 and a half years then then we should look at trading him at the 2021 deadline to try to get back some assets. Just my two cents though
