Well, you know what they say - you lose some, you lose some.

In all honesty though the boys did put in a good effort.

There's still runway, but every game that he isn't a factor we're getting a little bit closer to Zary just being a flash in the pan that happened for a season.

He hasn't shown himself to be a player who excels anywhere in particular in your lineup in a number of months.

Even Honzek has sort of cultivated a role for himself this season.

Media all praising Toews for his comeback. He was captain for a team that covered up a sexual assault, as I see it that’s full participation. That’s how I see him. As bad as Bowman.

I also wish somebody knocked Niederietter’s teeth down his throat for that hit on Parekh. Yap all you want if it’s clean or not, you don’t touch our top d prospect. Klapka should have murdered him.

Yeah I agree. Not very impressed with Zary so far.

He backed Bowman and protested him getting canned/suspended for the role he played.

I guess people have short memories and/or don't actually care.

Give them things to work on during the season, and support them as needed.

I would much rather watch young, fast and hungry players lose than old, slow and full ones.
There’s just not a big market right now
There will be later this season though. Perhaps the first opportunity towards the Xmas break

Lots of cheers for WPG goals in the dome . Not surprising. Winnipeg is such a dismal s***hole , same reason there are so many oilers fans in Calgary. Though, to be clear, Edmonton is a way bigger s***hole than WPG. At least Manitoba has nice lake country.

Definitely want to see him turn it around and be dynamic again, but it's just the truth of the matter at this point.

People will defend Kadri to the death on this site. We should have told him to waive his NTC last year before he became washed.

Now he isn't worth much.

Yeah but Timbit has early onset CTE. He ragged Gaudreau for 6+ years when he was here and was all over Dustin Wolf last year.

He knows nothing about talent and hockey haha

This team may score fewer than 170 goals total this season, something that hasn't been done since the 2014-2015 Sabres. Not including the shortened COVID year.

Currently on pace for 140 goals, but it can't stay that low.

What did you see when you watched it “numerous times”?

This is what I'd like to see as a top-6 and top 4 for the rest of the season. (After trading most of the vets for picks, prospects and expiring contracts of course).

Coronato Zary Gridin
Honzek Frost Klapka

Weegar Parekh
Bahl Pachal
