How can the offense be this bad? I know they lack star power at forward, but being shut out for 8 straight period is crazy.

Kadri has a bad habit to stop skating when he thinks he is fouled and look to the refs. Play to the whistle. Complain later.

It's more than a bad habit it's a character trait.

Going to age poorly for sure.

Were forward passes allowed in that era?

Agreed, just because someone else illegally takes you out of the play doesn’t mean that you should continue to take yourself out of it.

We live in an era of widescreen HDTV, why are the announcers always practically hugging when they go to the booth shots?

Let’s see how driven Kadri is this period. Channel that rage

His effort level has been disgusting. I assuming he’s injured but he’s a shell of his normal self. I’d rather no Cs on his sweater than the two he currently sports.
Someone said he is injured before the 4 nations break. Now he is back and you assume he is injured.

Very lame excuses for Backlund.

How's that coching system you think is so great Paulie? Keep digging up, you never fail to disappoint with your solid hockey takes.

Someone last game said he can’t shoot over 50%.

Without Wolf and Vladar we might have been outscored 20-0 the last 3 games.

If he’s injured he shouldn’t play. If he isn’t he should work harder.

Mailing it in and being extremely lazy is a super bad look for Backlund and starting to taint what is an otherwise exemplary career. He’s been floating for like 30-40 games now. Get your ass in gear.
