None of the rotation of coaches we've had has earned having a loyal defense team here because none of them have taken the team anywhere notable.
Huska is no exception.
Just because they're about 5-6 spots higher than expected shouldn't exempt him from any/all criticism or even concern. If anything, the rest of the conference outside of 6 teams being awful has a lot to do with it. 30 wins in 64gp is not very good.
Whatever he said before the third period against Vancouver, it was the wrong message. I hope he learns from that.
I also hope he shows some faith in younger players in OT because the usual suspects can't get it done.
OT isn't about playing it close to the vest. It's a race to put the puck in the net. Taking chances is the point.
