Brodie still looked all-star caliber when Gio went down and he was paired with Engelland. This is 100% being forced to play his “true” side. Why not put your players in the best possible position to succeed, coach?

A number of “fans” on this board are starting to remind me of Oilers fans these days
They’re not going to win every game FFS and they are going to look like **** occasionally. That doesn’t mean they’re a bad team. Everybody has stretches where they look bad, it’s the nature of the game.
It is frustrating that they’re beating themselves right now but if they win tonight in Colorado, 3-2-1 is a decent road trip.
It’s an 82 game season, it’s not all going to be positive.

Just wanted to point out that a 3-2-1 record stretched over 82 games is a 96 point playoff team. So yeah, I can totally live with that kind of road trip. Gotta get the W tonight though.
