The lack of push back from this team when they suddenly face a little bit of adversity is embarrassing. Man up and show some pride fer f--- sakes. You're only down by 1 and there's plenty of time left.

Monahan has barely played, Cassie. What's he supposed to do?

Whats baffling to me is how good they were in the 2nd, its all lost in the 3rd. I'm no GG fan, but thats got to be on the players. No way he makes those adjustments and then back peddles.

Dougie Hamilton needs to be more active offensively, that's the best part of his game and it's just seems like GG has him playing such a reserved game.

Clearly he also did nothing to sustain it.

That was a PK the team needed to kill for Smith. Smith has kept them in the game, they needed to come out and show some compete.

So gg puts out our veteran leaders Stajan and Brouwer to show how to get things done. 6 seconds and it's in our net.

Why are we even bothering anymore? These 2 need to go.

Yeah, Monahan is 8th in goals league wide...better cut his minutes!

You know how you get good players out of a funk? Play the !@#$ out of them. Stop playing all 4 lines the same 5v5, especially when the 4th is horrifically awful. Play the crap out of the 1st line, don't bench them.

Our view of Smith is starting to look like the view of the Yotes fans. This excessive playing of the puck is such a strong point of contention, and is amplified even more when we suddenly have another good goalie who is playing much much more conservatively to greats success so far.
