Remember when we were playing a subpar 4th line because we needed to force minutes and dress a PK specialist in Nordstrom. Good times.

Bennett has more secondary assists in this game than he did last season.

Offense is largely about confidence. How about we give them a little more than 40 minutes to get their games turned around?

Can Brendan Morrison turn his head or does he have a history of neck injury issues (serious question not trying to be a dick).

He said they weren’t playing well. Just not willing to give the opposition credit while in the game. Fair enough, I say.

Is Ward a worse coach than YEG era Dallas Eakins?

The first home game v. Vancouver was solid from start to finish. Same with the Winnipeg game at the Dome.

Other than that I've got nothing.

No. I know Ward isn’t the most popular guy around here but no one is Eakins bad.

I think they'll improve under Darryl. Just making observations in my opinion on the first 40.

Also, as Stajan and Morrison said, Sutter’s biggest focus is D, and I haven’t seen that line hemmed in like they usually are. So maybe they’re super focussed on that. If they play good D and get out quickly, the offence will come.

Maybe ward was too easy on them since it was his first head coach job and didn't want to alienate.

Has any line been hemmed in for any real stretch of time?

The puck battle support has been on point tonight. Battle for the puck, get it, and get it out of the zone quickly. Looking good!

The assists are in, for all of you who played Ryan and Bennett in your pools.

To be fair to 13 and 23, those two might have the biggest adjustment to a Sutter system, style whatever. Might need to be a little patient.
