			I'm not watching. Perhaps I'm glad I'm busy crafting some poorly designed and built trim for the outside dryer vent.

			Bad defence, incompetent forwards and bunch of floaters.
 What a waste of a Saturday afternoon .

			Mangiapane is so checked out. At least he made a goalie use their blocker instead of the logo that period.

Flames are fine outside of their zone. But in the D zone? Hot poo.

			The d zone changes Huska sold to get the job has been really really bad.
 Sample size is big enough now.

			Mangiapane is playing like he's hoping he's a throw in on a Markstrom/Tanev/Hanifin trade.

I don't think they are playing any system in their own end right now, they looked checked out defensively. Like a team knowing and waiting for trades to happen.

Only pairing I've noticed in a positive light has been the Shilly Pachal pairing. 
 
Even the Det play callers are saying good things.

People don't want to hear it because this team just went through a season with a coach going overboard and running himself out of town so the fan base is exhausted and doesn't want to entertain it again - but it's hard to ignore the same defense + Markstrom playing much better = much worse results. How? Coaching. Clearly their systems play and structure has degraded especially defensively.

We would be lucky if someone takes him as a throw in.

When they execute their zone defence they are fine.  When they get lazy and/or overcommit, they get exposed.

27 goals in his last 135 games. Thats a 16 goal pace over a full season.
 
He wasnt given almost 6M a year for his defensive prowess.
 
Get him outta here.
