That 1 for "the process"

He's taking responsibility for the performance of the club.

Hes going to self reflect and evaluate things.

Thought they were capable of more than what they did.

No emotional decisions

This season is not good enough but no emotional decisions to just react.

Knows they're missing something.

They're not changing 20 people.

Asked if emtion level is still an issue. Says theres a laundry list.

performance at critical times was lacking. (obviously)

Special teams big issue, depth big issue.

Players haven't reach their potential. can they reach it? have we misjudged what they can do?

No blowing it up.

Fell short in big moments. Not a date the team knew they were done.
(I feel like the moments he speaks of are the meltdowns against vegas when they had the game in hand etc, damn Frolik...)

Thinks theres both a Skill and Mental defiency within the team. Lacks confidence.

Thinks the stats will always regress back to the mean. (I.E advanced shot stats.... precurser to Gully staying?)

Patience preaching..... EDIT: relating to players, not coaching.

Coaching is up. You just dont spit people out time and time again. Trelving gets evaluated first. Once thats done, coaching is next.

Reporter asked if there will be patient with coaching. Was short aand said it will be evaluated. Said sometimes the best thign to do is make that change.

Ooo I for sure though he was gonna use "the process" when Wills asked about how he plans to evaluate and what tools he will use...

Home record, huge problem.

Defending trading picks. No trades were made with an "we're all in for this year" mentality.

Kind of odd for Francis to ask if humbodlt disrupted his process.

Asked if PP was near top of list for team failure. Yep. Momentum swings from special teams. Special teams cost us games. CRITICAL FAILURE

Question of Bennett. Frankly, no deep talk on idividual players. Didnt have the year he was hoping for. Gotta find out why.. Still a high ceiling on Sam. Hes in the group of player on team that didn't reach projected potential. gotta find out why. says they need more from him and we gotta find out how to get that from him.

Goalies: How confident are you in the tandem? Confident in goaltending. Kids were tossed into the deep end and praised Gillies for his play.
Smitties their guy. Thinks we have the guys here, but we're going to evaluate. A bit of doubt.

Not good enough today to make the playoffs next year. Gotta get more from young players. Gotta get better.

Will he touch the core? DING! 1 for the process! Evaluate and go from there. Can we get more resilient? Talks about growing a mind set. They need to find out what changes they needs to make before they make them.

Monny.... Significant surgeries. He'll be fine for the coing season. Double hernia surgery, 4 wrist surgeries. He hadn't had a good night sleep in 5 months. Jesus .
Cannot believe he played through all his injuries. Never seen anything like it.

END presser.
