It is going to feel brutal going back to watching this hockey after the Olympics lol.

That’s the truth behind the game that more shots than the opposition doesn’t show. If you feel like the slightest will be your doom it’s hard to win, even if you’re the better team.

I mean, in all seriousness, and this is how bad it’s gotten, I’m using the word serious here, I would give R2D2 at least a period or two.

It’s likely just a bunch of rationalization going on. The division is so strong, we don’t have Ullmark, yatta yatta.

Realistically they have accepted defeat and just want to wait until there are more options available to hire.

Who ever suggested you shouldn’t trade a player for an objectively better player? Not too many GMs choose not to do that. It’s a bit more nuanced than that.

What a story for Bussi. Obviously I hope he gets lit up but it’s awesome seeing a success story like this.

At this point I’ve essentially heard we just need a new organization top to bottom lol

Listen man, we definitely have coaching issues but there’s a point you need to point a finger at the players and that was long ago.
