Sad to see Backlund and gio apparently regress so much this season. Hopefully it's just the lack of preseason to warm up for these old guys.

Backlund can go with, or instead of, Bennett.

Awful forward depth, and worst head coach in the league. It’s easy to understand.

It has something to do with them being an awful team.

Honestly it was looking like a good move by Backlund. No one else was taking a defensive spot at all to help cover and he did get hit in the hands just before without a call

If that’s not a benchable play by Backlund I don’t know what is.

It feels like after we play a team a couple times they “figure us out”.

Almost as though they have adaptive coaching, and we have...

Is it just me or does Gio all of a sudden suck? He makes such dumb plays lately.

It’s not something you do with both D in deep (for some reason) and Lucic the other guy back. Brodie used to get dragged for doing the same thing.
