I think it's more than coaching. It's a barely mediocre GM, roster and coach.

Core is definitely questionable, and won’t get them far, but this team is and should be better than what they are right now. That’s on coaching.

I don't think anyone is on the side that it's JUST a coaching issue.

But he sucks too, so even if we somehow addressed the problems with the roster, the team would still suck because he's an awful head coach.

I think Gio should be utilized as a #6.

That is one thing I've gleamed from tonight.

Really poor stuff from your captain. Not setting an example out there most nights.

That BT couldn't bring an ounce of consistent success with the likes Gaudreau, Monahan, Lindholm, Giordano, and Tkachuk, is truly an ultimate failure.

It really is time to start moving on and making changes. Like, tomorrow morning, first thing.

It’s time.

I call BS. Outside the GM that put him there Ward is the #1 problem.

Ultimately, it is the GM that is responsible for the roster and the coaches

But, I also agree we've yet to see a coach with an established track record get a shot with this team. I think both are serious issues with this team frankly.

A Gallant/Boudreau type of coach in with a big shakeup trade is probably what's needed, but logistically I don't think Treliving makes either, especially during the season. Which only complicates the problem because the solution then is to replace Treliving, which means you're gambling that whoever comes in next doesn't also run into the blindspots.

Doing nothing though is infuriating because this is painful, boring hockey to watch for the most part.
Perfectly said.

What is this coach doing well? Wearing his mask on the bench?

Pvrd the game stopped watching at the 3-1 goal.

I hope that this team loses every game against the Sens. Screw treliving, I'm just cheering for his incompetent arse to get thrown out of Calgary.

How anyone can defend this management group is pure homerism.

I think they've played the style of game that suits this core for just a fraction of the time that they've been together.

Square peg into round hole for the rest of it.

Big changes need to be made to the team too, but you can't just make changes like that whenever you want, not unless you want to get fleeced in a trade.

Can fire the coach right now if you want, and since he's a terrible head coach I don't see why you wouldn't.

If Treliving actually got fired it's likely Don Maloney stepping in too haha.
