You can’t play 40 good minutes and 20 really bad minutes and expect to beat a team like Toronto

Credit to the team for a better effort (through 40 minutes) but you gotta wonder how much of that was Toronto just not bringing it until the third. I predicted they would come out flat and they did.

Bailey should not leave the lineup anytime soon.
It was almost entirely TO miscues making us look good. Then they decided to turn it on for a few minutes in the third and that was all she wrote.

Bailey should absolutely stay.

MacEwen should draw in for Virtanen. Ideally somebody for Roussel, but it’ll never happen.

Travis Green isn't the issue, it's higher up in the organization

Travis was very happy to bury guys like Stetcher down the depth chart to get minutes and opportunities for guys like Myers. He has a long history of doing this and did the same thing in Utica during their run.

He's a loser and absolutely has his share of culpability in this tragic hockey we're witnessing.

Omg. I'm such an idiot. I keep posting in the wrong PGT.

But damn, you know it's bad when all the losses meld together so much you end up doing that.

Norris Hughs with another minus -1


wouldnt it be nice to have a defensman that can defend? Someone like a Chris Tanev
Troy Stecher is having a great start to the season in his role. Hughes would look good if he played a role he can do as well, hes been asked to do what is unfare and not realistic and really bad for his development. This is all kinds a bad what this team is doing to our gem Hughes. Theyre putting him in a position to fail and he himself aint doing nothing about it either. This sucks

The team has no system to fall back onto. Canucks had a lot of possession and most were just unscreen and low percentage shots. Green literally throws these guys out there and tells them to have fun outscored 3-0 5on5. Useless ass Coach.

This team has lost 10 games in 13 against competitive teams. They are an abject failure and need to be completely turned over.
The next time Hughes says he “feels good” after being owned in his own end, he needs to be called out. The next time Green says “sometimes you play well and don’t win”, he needs to be called out. The next time Benning says “anything” he needs to be called out.
Time to act Mr Aquilini.

You’re up to bat Francisco. As a so called “fan” of the team his family better not be the ones medaling with moves and let the GM do his thing or find someone who can. Green will stay or go according to the GM situation. Gillant or Ruff are just sitting there for the taking and have loads of experience behind the bench with success.

Called out by who? They are all robots...canned replies. Reporters have to tow the line with softballs or else get blackballed and lose their access / jobs. rinse, repeat
