Can we please get rid of some of the so called veterans like Hayes and O’Neil? Hayes is so slow and O’Neil-thank god he was a healthy scratch-is useless!!!

Was at the game tonight. 5-1 loss, the defenceman couldn't get shots on net to save their lives and the forwards do not have the talent to compensate for that. Also Peters was trash

They're simply just a hurtin' unit i believe.
Especially on D atm...no O'Neill, Summers, Trotman...

They're also missing DiPauli and Militec up front.
I mean, they are pretty competive if they're fully healthy but take the guys i mentioned out and they aren't gonna win many...

Man, Guerin really isn't ready for this role. Botterill made it look easy but it's not. Sick of him bringing his Boston-area boys in. Plenty of better veterans were out there besides Hayes, O'Neill, Elliott (traded), etc

Seriously. And it can't be that hard to be an AHL GM. It's not like there's anything to negotiate in the off-season when you're throwing two-way deals at fringe NHL guys like Summers and Hayes. Those contracts are boiler-plate.

His off-season signings (I assume they are his doing) like Hayes and Muse stink, and the trades he's made all suck too. He consistently jettisons talent for.. I don't even know what. Less talent.

And for an organization where the last 6 head coaches went on to NHL jobs, Donatelli was a lazy hire. I honestly don't think he's a bad coach, but we could've and should've done better. It's probably the most coveted job outside of the NHL, for anyone looking to move up to (or back to) an NHL head coaching job.

Was watching football last night and just looked at hockey scores, cannot believe the offense showed up last night!! Let’s hope they can continue and not be a one game effort.

update on this situation


Well, they do say that never believe anything until it is officially denied :P

Okay, less tongue in cheek, if the guy knew anything they'd deny it anyway, and the original report was based on more than that incident anyway. Doesn't mean ought one way or the other.

For sure, just wanted to provide the info since I'm assuming most people didn't see this particular tweet.

Well. We weren't ever concerned with PITTSBURGH'S plans anyway...;)

W-B/S is still homeless until announced differently.

That seems like a rather... uninspiring... lineup.

What’s Miletic’s deal? Started with like 6 points in the first 8 or 9 games, got hurt, came back, now seems MIA again.
