I'm not sure how anyone can watch this team and come to the conclusion, yeah, GG is a great coach, lets just keep doing what were doing. Instead, lets blame the complete melt downs and inconsistent play on; the entire team, on bad luck, on goaltending, on the assistants, on the GM, on the fourth line, on the first line, on the third line, on the refs... at some point you have to stop and ask yourself, why is this team consistently inconsistent and why are they subject to so much bad luck? Bad luck, bad calls, bad play, inconsistent performance, is all a manifestation of bad preparation, unclear assignments, slow, lazy practice.

So you can watch the game and ask yourself, how do you blame GG for last nights debacle of major proportions, but you have to look deeper and ask yourself why so many professionals, who have been successful on so many levels are suddenly, all making the same stupid, bad, undisciplined plays? It's all about the direction they've been given, the preparation of the team, and the habits they've developed in practice. Which is well documented as being slow and casual, just like what we see in the games. Who's fault is that?
