There's just something about this team. A lack of something. I've seen players casually skating off to the bench for a change that leads to an odd man rush. Half assed attempts at taking your man that lead to a great scoring chance against. The cute passes, dipsy doodling in the neutral zone, all leading to odd man rushes and giveaways. Our star players are the worst culprits too, Tkachuk, Johnny, Monahan...
This team lacks focus, lacks commitment, and ultimately this means a lack of consistency. I still think the core needs a shake, but everything I have mentioned falls into the coaching category. With top notch coaches out there I dont understand why Tre hung onto Ward like this. Very bizarre to me.
