when you're that wide open, you pinch. He had an A+ look.

The "oh noes, Raymond is on the power play" broken record is getting pretty old. I'd take Hudler off before Raymond at this point.
While you are right on the anecdotal example, Mason Raymond is not a viable NHL player.

Right on que, an actual viable NHL player scores a goal, attaboy Stajan.

Taylor is just so dumb. Skilled, but just a stupid hockey player.

I don't think Hartley decides the PP lineups. Isn't that on Gelinas too?

Gio had the puck. It was a bad pass but who was pick inning up spot ? Hamilton was way too deep on the pinch and not wide open as some want to suggest.

Normally I would give coaches a lot of leeway with special teams but Hartley is blatantly making terrible decisions with his PP units. It's getting to the point where I think he's trolling everyone for the LOLs.

None of them should of been on the pp. The only thing getting old is Hartley putting out undeserving players in the pp.

No ####? I think Treliving still watches the games and can see the decisions his coaching staff is making. If the coach is playing guys that shouldn't be out there, for more than obvious reasons, and the coach keeps playing them, take those players away from the coach by moving them. That is what Billy Beane did as manager of the Athletics. The I understand a GM can have a pretty huge impact on the roster.
