Our entire team other than Boro is soft.
Agreed.

You can understand why Boucher wants guys like that in the lineup cause everyone else is so soft along the boards

Obvi we want a better player than boro but we have no one else

Let’s be honest incompetence and ****ty players have nothing to do with it. It’s about the unwillingness to blame certain players for poor performance. The thing is when the scapegoats are no longer and someone has to take the blame and it’s usually a player who got a free pass in the past. Cody Ceci is a great example, he was given a free pass when Chris Phillips was around. All of a sudden Phillips retired and Ceci went from top pairing potential to not even being an NHL caliber player. It creates unfair expectations for players because the majority just turn a blind eye to their faults.

while I agree with a lot of this, the irony is Ceci was Even in +/- in a 9-2 loss....

Oh well... it was bound to happen at some point.

We're not the first team to get blown out, and we won't be the last... In the last week alone:
New Jersey lost 8-3
Tampa Bay lost 7-1
Philadelphia lost 6-1
Vancouver lost 5-0

Throw the videotape in the garbage and move on.

No, keep the tape and play the 9 goals against before each and every future game.
