Would you start off your NHL HC career by insulting/criticizing your players and management in the media?

He got the job because he convinced Conroy he could fix it.

Looks like the soon to be 9 million dollar Lindholm, 10.5 million dollar Huberdeau and 7 million dollar Kadri have folded the tent already. That's a big pile of ####.

May be this team does not need a coach after all. Save Huska’s salary and give it to Huberdude and Kadri as a bonus

Is Huberdeau taking a #### again? I haven't seen him or even heard his name this period.

I have no idea how they could justify extend linholm to that now. You cant have your 3 highest paid players and 3 top 6 forwards have 0 chemistry.

Markstrom is making some big saves. He does look a bit more confident than last year. But the save % is really all that matters and he was 30th in save % coming into this game, and is at 84.6% as I write this.

Should be 5 or 6 zip.
He hasn't been a solution the last 2 seasons either. So he's just an average goalie paid like a star. Career stats check out. Another Treliving overpay.

You should consider the possibility that this team isn't as talented as you believe it is.

Guyz maybe Sutter was the only person keeping this team from being dog ####.

A Flames goal would change the outlook here. Let's go.

They shouldn't extend anyone anymore. The team is broken, especially those three. How can they not get anything going? That's 26.5 million tied to three players if Lindholm gets his contract.

Grade A scoring chances are being fed to Markstrom, regularly.

Quality of chances against is being ignored in your appraisal.

Not worth it. If he goal is to rebuild then just keep them around as cap filler.

It’s about about 80 games since we’ve seen 10/91/28 resembling anything close to top line talent. If they’re not right, this is a bottom 10 NHL roster.

Huska? No. This is a bad mix of uninspired talent.
