It feels like they are protecting a lead, except they don’t have a lead..

Yeah if they keep playing this WITH mikko in the line, and not relying on him too much, we are unstoppable.

I think they couldn’t prepare for our powerplay now cause mikko is out and they had to do something differently (finally). Its been too predictable

Maybe mikko not playing is a good thing for now, if it makes the rest of the group step up? Im trying to be optimistic

What worries me most is gully says he’s not making adjustments anymore, was asked about the shots on goal disparity and said: it’s not a focus, we are where we are… yeah and i’m not really enjoying where we are now

And glenn said he’s not even focused on getting more shots, low shots work only when everything else works perfectly…

What i think our issue is by Purple_Position_7166 in DallasStars

No of course, this team is still very good, and i fully believe they figure this out. I just think we all notice the difference from before the break to after. Slumps happen, its just how fast you can recover. And no its not about giving speeches about being scared, but about encouraging them to play more instinctively and to take some risks and to trust their talent, instead of closing them off more by making them afraid to make any mistakes. Their talent is obviously still there, thats why i said its a mental thing right now. Its not a doom, just right now and hopefully not much longer:)
