The team isn't good. They're just going through a good stretch of hockey against some tired teams. Every team has stretches like this.
So nice of you to put words in my mouth, multiple times misrepresent what I say, then act all coy about it.

Deep breaths friend. There is nothing that can be done now. The players aren't going to not try, the coach isn't going to tell them to mail it in. Just have to live with the results from now on.
They are a low talent roster. The top TOI foward and TOI defenseman in this game were two guys who literally weren't dressing for the teams they played for 3 weeks ago. Good scouting to grab those guys - but this is a team built to tank.
