Three games into a season is still preseason hockey to an extent as lots of players are only just getting into game shape and sharp so it's not a given the team is going to play this way all season. Even though I'm no fan of the hire I believe it's pretty shortsighted to draw any conclusions from what we have seen to date. It's obvious Gulutzan doesn't have the benefit of the doubt with fans that a guy like Bruce Boudreau would get but all the same it's not fair to start judging the coach until later in the season.
