Good loser = LOSER!
What a soft as butter D. Nobody pays the price coming over the blueline or around the Canucks net and that's a huge problem. I guess having a rookie and two spare parts at best in your bottom 3 doesn't help.
I would be playing the hell out of all the kids, including Baertschi and what should be a re-called Gaunce and maybe even Pedan. If Horvat wasn't going through a sophomore slump and Vrbata was doing his job, Baertschi would have had a half dozen or so more points right now and people wouldn't be whining about him. In fact, Vrbata has brought down two lines already and they're not even at the quarter point.
And the coach continues to dump in his pants as far as some of the player selection goes. Insisting on Edler monopolizing 1st PP time and having a young player they acquired specifically for his offense in Baertschi getting exactly ZERO today, is absolutely atrocious. The stark contrast between what he gifted Vey, who clearly isn't in the same class as Baertschi skill wise, is almost grounds for dismissal. Biega not even getting a sniff is a joke too.
WD will be back in the AHL next year at this rate.
