GDT: #10: FLYERS at Bruins, Thursday, Oct. 25, 2018, 7:00 p.m. ET

Boston has never been a good matchup....them having a better D and goaltending kinda helps.

Wouldnt mind if they beat us by at least a touchdown, and in the reports it says "OWNERSHIP HAS HAKSTOL ON THE HOT SEAT" which tells me hextall doesnt have the balls to man the **** up and admit he made a mistake

It would be even better if it said "OWNERSHIP HAS HAKSTOK ON THE EJECTOR SEAT"

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

It is already this early in the season and a lot of the fans are drained. A lot seen this coming before the season though which doesn't help things.

Honest to God, I was drained in the middle of the second preseason game.

Relax man it'll get better soon.

So now 4 goalies in the AHL.

I'm relaxed, Mango, don't worry.

Me to but it's hard. I was pissed again watching this shit.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Funny, I was told the stars "carried" this team last year, this year they're getting beat against top competition, "crickets."
When I said they were exposed in the playoffs, no no no, but it's becoming pretty obvious.
Sure, they can score, but just don't have the legs to match up against top, fast young talent.

A new coach won't change that, only enough new talent. And it's coming.

They are a disorganized mess right now. That's coaching. I am going to assume you agree with me and end this discussion right now.

I SAID GOOD DAY, SIR!

 

[Danko]

Agree with Hexy here. Laughton really has been a widely improved player this year.

Hexy knows the players are a big problem which means players are gonna go soon.

It is coaching but players are in this problem in a huge way right now to. Lets see what happens.

 

[deadhead]

If Hextall fires Hakstol, be prepared for a couple major trades as well, if he's going to blow up the season he'll probably want to take advantage of the grace period to dump a couple fan favorites.

 

[deadhead]

Agree with Hexy here. Laughton really has been a widely improved player this year.

Laughton, Sanheim, TK, Hagg, are all improved.
See a trend here?

Time to clean house.

Win or lose I don’t think it does much to hakstols chances. He’s got a ticking clock for sure. Win a couple and it buys him time lose a couple and it’s so long!

156 more games.

 

[deadhead]

I'd almost want to see Holmgren as the interim coach, it would sure shake things up.
But it might lower the trade value on some people.

 

[Curufinwe]

The only things less fun than the Hakstok brand of hockey are usual suspects:

a) the usual suspect who never acknowledges any mistake by a coaching staff, yet exaggaretes any negative impact a top end player may have
b) the usual suspect who was hell bent on calling Couturier a **** 3C player every year until he myssteriously disappeared for Couturiers career year
c) the usual suspect who just keeps strolling in with 1970s mentality, disliking everyone on the roster until they leave, then they are okay

These 3 repeating their one shtick over and over again are next level moaning tirade

To be fair, he didn't miss the entire year.

I would love to see Vorobyev get back in.
And I think a guy like Twarinsky would be a perfect call up. Especially if Raffl is hurt.


Giroux—Couturier—Konecny
Laughton—Patrick—Voracek
Lindblom—Vorobyev—Simmonds
Twarinsky—Weal—Weise

That 4th line has 2 physical wingers + a skilled center. I think as of right now, this would be our best 5 on 5 line up.

I also think our PK unit should be

Laughton — Couturier
Provorov — Hagg

Giroux — Simmonds
Sanheim — Gudas


Change It up. Let the big boys play. Be more aggressive. It feels like we just let the other teams score

 

[Curufinwe]

NAK needs to play before Twarynski. Long before.

 

[hatcher]

Hextall knows its the players now and I love the commment we'll see whats out there if this team keeps sucking.

 

[Lindberg]

Laughton, Sanheim, TK, Hagg, are all improved.

Adios Voracek! If the right trade presented its self I'd be down. Perhaps Simmonds will get traded though?

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Need to start going better? The f*** dude... don't realize that it's NOT going well? Might as well stare at the lone turd in the toilet and wait and expect it to turn into gold. It's not going to f***ing happen. Do something.
