The excuses in here are great! Bottom line, there are too many passengers on the team and its become acceptable by the coach, GM and most fans. If the players aren't giving all they can give then the coach needs to get more from them or play them in a position for them to succeed but if they only do it when they want to, they should be moved.
The coach sucks. Sure, his record is decent since hes started but that's because of the hit streak at the start of his job, they've since turned him out.
If this is some players "playing great" it means they just aren't good enough and the team needs to try and improve and cash in on depreciating assets.
The building blocks of this team are Tkachuck, Lindholm, Andersson...I don't even know who else anymore. Even those guys have bad games but at least it looks like they're trying.
This team needs a granade without the pin.
