Maybe its a coaching problem. Ooops. Forgot that we've changed coaches a few times recently.

Whats been constant? Hmmm. I can't seem to figure out what hasn't changed.
Bingo!!! Finally someone has figured out what the issue is...
Fourth Line is not the problem - Its the "top" players on this team. McGrattan, Begin, Jackman, Aliu - doesn't matter who makes up the fourth line.
No centers (except in Abby), no consistency from the top 3 lines, Comeau on this team, Glencross taking 90% of his shifts off and Baertschi getting little opportunity are the kind of things that are destroying this team.
The coach and management promised entertaining hockey - well we are getting that off the ice for sure.
Personally I am hoping that they continue to lose and we get a top 3-5 pick this year.
