That's pretty bad. What's next? Celebrating goals with Chelsea Dagger?
Honda Center should play that whenever the other team scores. Maybe that'll light a fire under this team.

It's a sign
I really think this team goes by the way of their captain. Getzlaf has played worse than i've ever seen for this long of a stretch. As far as I can remember this is exactly how he has looked in all the game 7's, as has the team behind him. Obviously it cant be all his fault but it definitely is a big part.
What about it? I've said repeatedly that's on Murray. This discussion isn't about that though. You're going back and forth between saying Getzlaf and Perry aren't producing and that's not BB's fault at all. Yet they've produced with 3rd liners on their line every year since they've come into the league basically. So do they suck now or is BB's system not working anymore? You still haven't answered that basic question. It's not that hard. If you think they've declined into worthless players, or aren't competing, come right out and say it. I'll repsect your opinion and we can agree to disagree. IMO this system of dump and chase isn't beneficial for anyone on the team. Getzlaf and Perry need to be coached to carry the puck more through the neutral zone, and then cycle when they get to the offensive zone. That's not happening
Getzlaf's inconsistency is his M.O.

I don't understand the Cogliano hate. He's right about the only guy actually playing the system. It's not his fault nobody else is, and that he's ideally a grinder.
"It's a stretch he'll be worse than Beauchemin".
He is a grinder and needs to play that role - as does hagelin. They are both really good at that and need to be on the same line. Problem is we are paying them over 7 million a year together. Sucks. Can't believe they are both playing in the top 6 right now. Thats just pathetic.

I wonder if we're reaching critical mass for jersey tossing yet.
Sure he's always made dumb passes here and there and he forgets to be physical but this is a whole new level. But i've never seen him so un creative and less dynamic.
Every time I miss a game then check the score
No argument. But he's one of the few players actually putting in an honest effort every night. It's not his fault that the GM has made him one of the best of a bad bunch of options.
Hagelin looks to be one of the worst trades in recent memory though. He's wholly inappropriate for this team. Cogliano hits, Hagelin either can't or won't. Which is fine, because that's always been his game to anyone who's ever watched him. Too bad one of those folks wasn't our GM. Which is hysterical after all of the open criticism of the team and coaching style he did after the LA loss about the team being too easy to play against.
