Duclair showing why Florida kept scratching him in the playoffs. Probably no reason to resign him at this rate.
Duclair is far from the main problem.
JBB is gonna re-sign Dumba and Duclair and call it an offseason.Half is coop and half is JBB assembling the worst lightning roster over the last two years tearing down the greatness. WE need to trade at least two of Cernak, Jeannot, Sheary, and Sergachev.
He is trash. Not a good fit here. Another missDuclair showing why Florida kept scratching him in the playoffs. Probably no reason to resign him at this rate.
I'm not sure what else Coop is supposed to do with this roster.
Remember the rangers series in 2022 we lost the first 2 at there home. So I can't count this team out, we are a way different team though.
That 2022 roster would take this teams lunch money. 2022 was a good roster. This mess of an AHL team is a jokeJust breathe folks. We were freaking out doing the same thing vs the NYR and the Leafs 2 years ago
That's a nice memory to have, but we don't have:Remember the rangers series in 2022 we lost the first 2 at there home. So I can't count this team out, we are a way different team though.
Sounds like you’re saying “fire Cooper”.I didn't like this matchup before the series started, but this hasn't been the same Panthers team I was expecting to see. What's given us trouble in the regular season is the Panthers speed, and transition game off our mistakes. I think of the Panthers, I think of their top 6 offense. That's not what we're getting here. Panthers are really switching things up in order to take away our offense.
Bolts on the other hand are so busy trying to play a defensive game in respect to that Panthers offense, that they've taken the offense out of their own game. Doesn't make much sense considering how much Kuch and the top offensive guys have made the offense the identity of this team, and 2, theBolts have never been a good defensive team this year. They don't have the personnel to do what they've done in previous runs.
They are the best 5v5 team, we are not good 5v5... look at the teams on paper.
Said it for a while, the personnel just isn't it. I'm surprised we clinched and got here, genuinely. I think it's still within reach to "flip" the switch during the regular season because of the talent we have, but this is not a team with the roster to go deep.
We said it all year, take away Kucherov and we are a bottom dweller. Well, Florida is doing just that and winning the game. Pretty easy blueprint. Our bottom six depth is non existent. Our defense is shambolic. Team is not good and we are being exposed for it.
Start preparing yourselves for another first round exit unless we win this game and somehow show we can hang. It's not happening down 2-0 against these guys. Credit to them.
So true, I was thinking maybe AtlantaI love watching dump and chase hockey in 2024 where our closest forechecker is in Pensacola.

Get the most out of them. Right now I’d say he’s getting about 50%.
Part of reason at least 2 of those guys got to guy to make cap for someone useful and maybe get an asset for cernak ,sergachev, or Perbix We need young and hungry blood in the line up. I hope Howard and Dukes are ready next year.JBB is gonna re-sign Dumba and Duclair and call it an offseason.
JBB has to go. He isn't improving this team anymore.
We have no assets or cap to get better....BECAUSE OF THIS JABRONI.
JBB handcuffed the team and this is the result
Hes the biggest fraud. Handing out terrible contracts with NTC left and right. And wasting draft capitalDo I understand correctly that both Sheary and Jeannot are healthy scratches? That's 4.6 million, like whole Ryan O’Reilly. I think JBB is the worst GM in the league right now
