They were thoroughly embarrassed tonight and I'm sure the coaching staff tore a strip off them after this game. I think we'll see a much better effort against the Pens on Thursday.

Hope you’re right. The offensive talent is there. It is the D I am really worried about. We have a rookie (basically) pulling all-star minutes right now. Good for him and his development, but bad for the team in general.
Season is young. But not a great start. And giant opposition coming up here.
