Are the Ducks "great" at anything.
If the answer is no, then how can Anaheim continue to field this team? If they are truly in "cup or bust" mode, how can they think they have any chance if they are not elite at anything?
My opinions:
Anaheim is not elite offensively
Anaheim is not elite defensively
Anaheim is not elite in goal(though Gibson HAS played great)
At one time under Boudreau the Ducks were great at something(scoring) and Murray decided he wanted a bunch of muckers and grinders, which is whatever but how can you expect an offensive coach to coach a roster with no identity?
Boudreau has his issues as well, namely his usage of certain players.
I keep coming back to what many of you have said, Murray is not a "finisher" he can build a team to a certain level but he can't put it over the top, because he doesn't have a vision that he sticks to. He is extremely reactionary which has gotten the Ducks into alot of trouble the last 18 months.
Anyways I am interested in your opinions
