The biggest problem is that the guys who make the most money on this team don’t put up even close to a point per game at even strength in the playoffs...
Mediocre franchise is mediocre...
But hey! The blues won a cup after ~50 years of futility so maybe we can too one day...
But this group ain’t it.
Tkachuk is career 5pts in 15 games and everyone thinks he’s the saviour? That’s pathetic playoff output for a guy who prides himself on that (and I will happily eat those words if he improves as sample size increases) Johnny and mony should be packaged off to Florida or somewhere where they love regular season hockey, gio has lost a step or two but I get keeping him around for sentimental reasons, and we pay all our depth too much. I guess if Benny and looch keep playing like this then the salaries combined seems fair, and dube and mange seem good.
Scary how little size we have.
We tried big and tough with Darryl in 06-09 then we tried small and fast 17-20.
Not sure what the answer is but this ain’t it.
I don’t think winning a series changes this, but imagine if we had Kadri / Stone?
