We started throwing the puck at the net from everywhere when we went down by 4how is it possible to have 35 shots in 45 minutes (which means we have 34 in last 33 if my math is right) and seemingly no grade a scoring chances?
And they were all -2Only line that is skating and at all effective is the fourth line.

Yeah, I think I’ll just burn the tape on this one, thanks.So this is going to be a trap game, huh? Might just have to watch this one tomorrow.
A huge chunk of "what's good for the team" is getting people to come and spend money. Ticket sales are very much down this year and tickets are going unsold on the secondary market more than previous years. Putting out your very best product on home ice is a very real concern when the team isn't good/popular enough to consistently sell out the building. There is good reason that Binner plays damn near every (if not every) Saturday home game.Nobody should ever be worried about that in the first place. Do what’s right for the team, who cares what a dumb fan wants.
Thus the yo-yo effect on the 'Trade' thread lolThis fan base is so bipolar lol. Win a couple "omg, we underestimated the team, we are a contender!!!!!". Lose one, "omg we suck so bad, bottom 5 pick here we come". Y'all better get your meds in check. We are in for a roller coaster of a season.
That's how the team is built. We are a middling team. If we execute perfectly we can play with the best on an off night for them. If we play lax, we can lose to a bad team. But we aren't going to do either consistently.
I completely agree with this. We don't have the talent up and down the lineup to be good every night. if our top 2 lines are having scoring problems the bottom lines won't be able to provide at a regular basis. We are gonna end up around 85-90 points. I will not be surprised if we end the year at or right around NHL .500.This fan base is so bipolar lol.

Wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest. I’d be shocked if we didn’t see a MUCH better effort against the kings/ducksWatch them beat the Kings next game
