I mean, having Creed beat Drago doesn't mean the whole movie is going to be predictable. Unless you want to criticize just about every movie ever for having the protagonist win.
Bruh this boy killed my pops
Russian anger speak
Montage of training
Rocky mumbling some shit thinking he's inspirational
Hard battle
Creed wins
Humble about it so he can Honor his dad
Drago and rock make up.


Bookmark this shit. Watch.

The most important thing is your point about different lines having a different strategy. You have to play to your strenghts.

A guy like Oleksiak should be a good puck mover... instead he tries to skate the puck out too often. Similar story with JJ. He is trying to play like he did in College. This **** doesn't work in the pros. Problem is not personnel, it is not playing to our collective AND individual strenghts. That's on Sully.

Everyone in the NHL plays the same variations. Everyone has a 1-2-2. Everyone has similar breakouts. Everyone has set plays on faceoffs, etc. It is about what you deploy against WHO and with which players.

So we need to fire Sully then...it’s time...expiration date is likely here

I think this is an problem that Johnson has, that the people who focus on Johnson never mention. He's trying to do more with the puck than Letang tries to do, even Letang knows his limitations. His job is to get to the puck in the defensive zone and get it to the forwards, I don't know why anyone would want him to do more than that. Even if he was great at skating the puck, he's not Crosby, Malkin or Kessel.

Oh now Crosby gets clowned by Hyman.

One of those disturbing games I’ve ever watched tbh. Not one of the worst period, most disturbing in terms of heart.

Exactly! We have the best forward group in the league, get them the puck in stride. Accelerate the tempo. Do not try to be Bobby Orr. Puck is faster than man.
