We have a tonne of talent at all positions, but look completely lost in terms of team defence and special teams. Team d and special teams are the top areas of impact for a coaching staff. We're good in terms of even strength offence, but that's the most talent driven part of the game.
This is partly on the players, but no coach in the league is getting less out of the talent given to him than Babs. This isn't a new problem either - Babs has never had this team playing good team d, and we've been garbage overall since ~halfway through last season. It's obvious that we need a coaching change immediately.
If a new coach doesn't fix things, then fire Dubas in the offseason, and bring in a new GM, who can try to shake up the roster. But the first move, that we urgently have to make, is to give new coaches a try.
