Horcoff to Gordon was a substantial upgrade for this team and it was immediately pissed away by the downgrade from Khabibulin to Labarbara in net. At least Nik could be leaned on to make a key save to hold a damn lead. Labarbara is just awful. It's seriously disappointing.
But the onus is on the entire team.
This is the worst I've seen this team perform in years. We haven't won a game yet in my eyes. At least in previous years there were games where our guys blew teams out. Every team we have played this year has been in the game right down to the final buzzer. I don't think there's an easier team to play against in this league right now.
I can't point any fingers and I'm not going to suggest burning it down. But I'd like to see Andrew Ference do something useful and use that C on his jersey to turn this ship around. Because if he wasn't wearing it, he'd be just as likely to be sitting where Nick Schultz was this afternoon by the way he's played so far.
