When my fiance can tell the effort is lacking, thats a big red flag. To her just skating around the ice is putting forth effort most of the time. The fact that they talk about the "emotional level" of games is embarassing.
Agree with the consensus Gagne should sit. I still think he can be traded at the deadline if we can get a second or something for him. Flip that to LV to have them not take Anderson or Karlsson.
Also, I think Calvert can be replaced next season. He's a good pk'er, and can create a scoring chance here and there, but he is pushed off the puck or knocked down pretty easily especially when he takes the puck behind the opponents net. Sorry Matty, but I'd give his spot to Bjork, and let him have a shot. You can fill his role as a penalty killer. I'm sure folks on here will disagree, but I had that thought a few times last night, and quite often recently.
Murray was brutal last night. Not just on the goal that Megna blew past him on, but he passed one right in front of the net last night that ended up on a Canucks stick. Luckily bob made the save. He made a few decent offensive plays, but I recall yelling at the tv on one in particular where he made a nice move and was cruising towards the net with a nice shot lane, and just decides to throw it to the middle where it was promptly picked off.
They are beyond frustrating to watch right now. I know this is the ups and down of the 82 game season, but c'mon now. I could go on, but I'm sure nobody really cares to read my rants. haha
Gonna go watch the Monsters tonight, and probably be just as frustrated since they can't score either.
