NO goalie, even sham Ward will be able to save the Canes. may as well just play Petey. zero difference to the outcome.
this cap team is directed by an AHL coach who hasn't a clue how to use NHL elite talent. end of story. bottom of Metro coming up. plenty of the usual and ongoing excuses no doubt forthcoming.
You want them to play run and gun.. they don't have that kind of talent. End of story.
My question would be this then:
1. Where have you seen Muller "blame the players"? Exact quotes would be preferable. And if I could find similar quotes from veteran coaches, would you admit that any "blame" is likely being used as a motivation tool rather than an attempt to come off blameless?
2. The PP has been awful for the past decade, with 2 other head coaches behind the bench and countless assistant ones. Don't you think the odds point more to player's execution than a coach's strategy at that point?
Anyone know why Rutherford went the DiPi route rather than making a play for Bryz?
I'd guess cash. Bryz likely wants a fair price, whereas rick just wants to play literally anywhere to prove he can still hang.
If I'm reading what you said correctly, you believe that the players are executing Muller's system correctly but still receiving blame for the loss by Muller when Muller is stating the generic responses that every coach gives ("didn't play our game", etc.).
Moreover, you're basing this off the play of the top line now compared to the play of the top line from last year.
Does that sound about right?
this all has to be a combo of some incompetence somewhere in the org. and just straight bad luck. wow. guys on this team just drop like flies. other teams have injuries and I wonder if they are and have been like this. they need all the good luck to begin with just to get by. this stuff to the guys and they are hooped. I guess the lack of depth doesn't help.
I want us to sign malhotra first. If he wins draws and plays nearly as well defensively as he did before he's an obvious improvement. He would probably be our third line guy to be honest. A healthy malhotra would be an improvement over Nash, and probably better than lindholm in terms of consistently bringing an nhl game.
Him and Nash could center 3a and 3b lines, with the grab bag of Dwyer, Ruutu, Bowman, Sutter, whoever else falls in that category. To me, Nash has proved he's a good 4C, average 3C, to me at least. Being realistic, I think that's where Manny would fall as well. They could be interchanged as the lines called for.
Ideally lindholm proves he's ready and finds chemistry with skinner and manny is the fourth line guy. Maybe Nash plays wing on the fourth. I don't think I want either guy on the third, but I agree they both slot in the same spots. I think muller will love Manny's consistency and likely more physical play over Nash though I agree Nash has shown he can hang.
Nothing good to tell you. (Unfortunately)... Skatearound did not go too good.
What do you mean by did not too good? Meaning he was still in pain so it may be longer than expected? Sounds like this is not good news.
