Twice in nine days, Glen Gultuzan allowed this team to ignore the current day's opponent and look ahead to the Oilers. Both times, this team lost in embarrassing fashion on home ice. Despite that looking ahead, twice in nine days, Glen Gulutzan did not have this team remotely ready to play the Oilers - a team that quite frankly is no better than we should be.
Overall, things have certainly gotten much better relative to October even when you account for our backup goalie playing unsustainable hockey for a month and our PP scoring at an unsustainable level for six weeks. But the simple fact is, Glen Gulutzan is not able to properly prepare this team to play. It's pretty much the the job of the coach, and he's shown he is grossly incompetent at it.
