apologies to Frosty. 

Thoughts on this series? I have no clue, but the Blues fans at HFboards are concerned that their goalie will return to his mean, and that the Jets are better at the hitting game, and with the man advantage.

I know it seems harsh. We have a good team.  It you can’t squander the talent we have with crap like this. 

I don't know the Nmc but I'd start with trading trouba, little , Perreault , maybe buff and trying to get some guys with heart and who how up consistently and who actually want to be here.

Do not blow it up.....but some tweaking really required

on to the Bombers

wait aren't there CFL negotiations going on or was that settled?

As far as the Jets....
I got nothing, and they had nothing

Hellebuyck did play a great game after I criticized him, of course. So, I will give credit where credit is due as it's only fair. His teammates sure let him down.

31 10 SOG. If Maurice isnt fired.. Its a joke

I'll admit that I found you annoying a week ago - but you have been proven right

Hopefully their inevitable changes are sensible and effective

Some players looking for new contracts will probably be playing elsewhere next season. No way this group can stay together after the way they played. Especially late in the season & in the first round. 

Start with eliminating the dressing room problems.. Hendricks was brought back cuz there were problems in the room. Likely due to ice time distribution.. And Maurices refusal all year to break up 55 and 26, who i suspect might be part of the internal issues. Wheeler im saying, always calling out the kids but floating the last half of the year. Think theres a divide between the old boys club and the new young core. Doesnt matter how poor they played.. They were always together. Tells me 26 likely runs the room... Maurice certainly doesnt. Interesting leah hextall tweet after the blues 3rd goal

Proven right ,where? Overstating the obvious?

Maurice just now:  "Players played as hard as they could tonight"

Do or Die just now:  "I'm not THAT drunk"

Interesting leah hextall tweet.....That I found particularly disturbing ,as I have observed that over the last half of the year myself.

U have to be delushional to not see there are problems with coaching. Closed door meeting game 82... Proceed to come out and **** the bed again. 

There are real issues here. Big ones. This isnt something that just happened.. This happened at or near the all star break.. Maybe 55 wanted to play with somebody not named Wheeler? I dunno but theres legit issues

Since the all star break for sure. Lots of indivudual attempts tonight.. Wheelers 4 minute penalty was because instead of using his teammates he tried to do it by himself and turned it over.

Me and you aren't in the room ,So we cant for a certainty say that. But I admit, there needs to be some tweaks made. Which will probobly happy by proxy, ergo, free agency signings ,and players leaving via....etc.

I like Wheeler, I think he gives it his all most nights ,but there's other high profile players who sure as hell aren't.

For all the talk about our skill.....the reality is that with this team D, we saw all year......wern't going anywhere, anyways....

I'm assuming you mean overall team defense. Because our back end is as good ,if not better than most. I was just pondering how Huddy would do as HC.......

Heres the captain..telling a reporter to **** off.. Hes part of the problem.

Do you blame him? He shouldn't even answer anything tonight......

Too much jumping the dots and feather dusting by a lot of our forwards.  We also have no apparent system for clearing the D zone, against a heavy forecheck

hes the captain.. Its part of being captain. Maybe hendricks was brought back cuz wheeler isn't this great leader ppl thinks he is. If the captain cant take the heat... Take his C away.

Give me 8.5M.   I would swear a blue streak

Edited April 21, 20196 yr by do or die

Trouba needs to go.. Especially if he dont wanna be here.. That right there is a huge problem. 

1. Fire Maurice and all coaches 

2. Trade Trouba

3. If Wheeler is a problem, move him b4 his full nmc kicks in July 1st. Same with Buff who nmc becomes modified now.
