Glass half full, they've gotten points in every game.

Glass half empty, they've blown two straight third period leads.

p.s. They were unbeaten with Fever in the lineup. ;)

It's not like he can't.


But he gets the stickhandling situation right 1/100 times. He needs a coach to bust his ass on consistency. Crosby use to suck at faceoffs and he busted his ass to improve. I'm sure Ovi has the talent to improve but he needs the right coaching.


Pens are done. Crosby wont win anything ever in the NHL because he has to retire as a Penguin. Why would we discuss him here? Get lost

Seems to be a pattern with Reirden, hate to say it. No fatigue excuse here.

That said, Forsythe needs to go. Was clear to me last season and even more so now. Time for a new perspective, I don't think he has anything more to offer.

I think it's early in the season and Reirden doesn't bother me (yet). But I agree with regards to Forsythe and the PP. Nothing has changed and he has been running it for, what, years??
The tells me he has no clue how to fix it, change it, try other things.

Sam, please get the record Stars have vs this team for a laugh. I don't know where to find it.

It's very early but Carolina looks more like a top of the division team. In Washington's favor no one else in the division seems particularly good. Maybe NYR or Philly can put it together but I'm not sure they're more than bubble teams.

They haven't lost in regulation yet but the lack of creativity is a bit jarring and concerning.

It seems to me Ovi tries to show that he "still has it" when it comes to the showboat attempt in OT. He is not as fast and tricky with the puck as he used to be.

I hope Carolina wins the Presidents Trophy!

Wayyyyyy too early to say anything. It’s 4 games.

0 wins in first 2 games while having the LEAD going into the third AT HOME isn’t anything to be happy about.

Reirdon has to get 2 points when having a lead going into 3rd - especially at home.

The loss is better than the win in that aspect they have to work and think more now.

Can't see them firing Blaine in season though. Todd... we will see. I like the system but the execution tonight was subpar (even comparing to previous games Ive seen partially).

Maybe its Dowd's absence but I doubt that

The top line needs to be better and Forsthye better be on a short leash, the PP has been a disaster. Getting 6 out of 8 possible points in our first 4 games is pretty solid and we still dont have Kempny back. Things are looking pretty good imo

Absolutely unconcerned with anything so far except maybe Hagelin and Panik on the third line. I actually thought the PP looked fine tonight aside from missing the net on a few opportunities.

Freaking can’t even watch nhl app reply cause I’m in Houston.... highlights looked like 2 of 4 goals were poor puck management. That’s not the first puck eller has turned over at the attacking blue line.

First five games you are getting your legs.
Second five games you are getting the system.
Games ten through twenty you know what you are.

I heard a coach say that once in an interview and I will stick with it.
