Okay powerplay, let's see what you've got. Lindy and Huberdeau need a goal. Lindy with 15 after potting 40 last year isn't getting it done.
We need guys to step up which nobody has.

So much for that. Not sure why I get excited about a powerplay. Funny thing about this team. If we have a lead, the other team can come back with no problems. If we're trailing, we're done.

Down by a goal late in the third? Better throw out the 4th line. Even though they were literally responsible the last goal against.

There's no better sign that a coach has lost the plot when they resort to that.

Huberdeau's averaging almost 3 minutes less night in a system that encourages a Dallas Eakin's like obsession with shot volume and winning the corsi battle for a coach that won't stop insulting him.

Yeah, no shit he's struggling. He's lost his confidence and the coach is a moron who's well past his best before date.

He absolutely has, but his play on his own merit still sucks.

Take solace that in alternate universe we're about to draft a franchise player after we flipped Huberdeau and Weegar for picks, never signed Kadri and kept Mony for that one last year.

We're having a blast in that universe...

That's what happens when you have no confidence.

His biggest issue is that's thinking too much about what he needs to do instead of just playing and letting instincts take over. And as a result, he's slow, behind the play and failing both offensively and defensively.

This season's a write off. They just had over a week to try and reset but it's worse than ever if anything. Nothing's gonna magically change in the remaining 30 games now. And nothing will change next year either unless they alter course.

Reg loss to the wings while more than 2 to 1 sog. Perfect flames performance. Grabbed +310 at 1-0 up. Punta Cana trip almost paid for.

Brad is a top 10 GM.

Trades a first away to get rid of Monahan and signs Kadri to that anchor. And pretty much everyone in the fanbase loved it.

I was dead wrong about Huberdeau so far to be fair, but idk how tf that move got so much praise.
