Why weren't you saying these things when they were on a hot streak, when Gaudreau was scoring at PPG pace coming back from injury, or when Monahan had a 10-game point streak, or when Tkachuk had a 9 game streak going, or when Johnson was looking like the second coming of Kiprusoff and they were challenging for the division lead?
It's really easy to bash on the coach when things aren't going well, but that doesn't make all the vitriol being spewed in here true.
