Treliving tried to improve the goaltending and failed over the summer now the team is stuck with $8.3M in garbage and a 24 year with 10 games experience.
Firing Bob is not the answer right now as the team is playing much better offensively right now and actually a better possession team than last year. The defense needs work but not so much the personnel moreso the systems and that includes forwards back checking. Last season even with our D jumping in the play constantly the odd man rushes against were limited. This year the odd man rushes happen multiple times per game.
The offense has improved, the defense can improve but I am not sure about the net. I think
Brad owes it to Bob and the players to get an upgrade in the net. As crazy as it sounds the playoffs could still be in reach thanks to playing in the worst division in hockey
