So yes it’s driving me a little nuts

Kylington is having a great game. Great D there and then draws the penalty with his wheels.

So do you feel the same about Backlund? Gio?

I'm thinking that taking down what's left of my Christmas decorations in -30 weather would be a better use of my time than finishing this game.

Great penalty draw by Oliver

Would love to see that pair get more ice time

I think the whole team is like skating in sand. One game on, one game off mentality?

Outside of maybe ten games, and obviously this one's not over yet, has this team even been exciting to watch?

Such a Kylington fan. He should get some powerplay time soon.

No not to the same extent
At least the effort is there from those guys
Johnny is lazy and not committed

My feeling is that I think he just feels now when he gets out there 5 on 5 is that he feels that line is short handed, rightly or wrongly and has to try and do more to create. Stats certainly show it, and watching them try and force things to Backlund and vice versa is awkward.

He’s used to having Lindholm last year and Ferland, who knew where to be to get decent scoring chances and willing to pay the price in those areas to get the chances, where thst isn’t Backlund game by a mile. Again, chemistry and comfort for JG isn’t there with Backlund, and after 6 weeks of this, it’s a feeling that’s probably not going to change.

Entire team looks checked out already, looking ahead to the break I guess. I've never turned off a 1-0 game before, but I'm pretty close with this one.

Sure. I just don't understand the mindset of trading a star player on a sweetheart deal. Then again, I don't understand the embarrassing negative hyperbole posts that always take place in the GT whenever we are trailing a game. We can only hope Flash truly went to do the dishes.
