I hope our genius coach comes up with something better than swapping our 4th line next game.

No, but he refuses to adpat his system which has become predictable.

Plays guys like Brouwer, Glass and Stajan.
Refuses to call up prospects that deserve a chance.
Refuses to move Bennett to wing.

Winnik always scores against the Flames. This team is so frustrating. Never make the simple plays. Always trying to pass it through the opposition.

At the point of turnover he is the highest forward in the O-zone for either team. That's an easy out for him with passive puck pressure as the Wild attempt to move through the neutral zone.

Flames were up by a goal and bad/aggressive/dumb positioning cost the team dearly.
Just to expand, Gaudreau awful on that play from start to finish, weak turnover, weak back check, his man scores. Weak ####.

I've mostly given up on the idea he'll return to the defensively responsible, hard working player he was in his first couple of seasons with the club.

Fantastically talented player, but really lacking in compete and hating to lose. Misdirected, self-focused frustration.

Bennett I hope can be better and is not beyond redemption.

0 pts in 8 games for Bennett. #freejanko. Very low hockey IQ

The team plays like this board, either completely dominant or absolutely garbage. Unfortunately, it's been more of the latter so far this year. Lucky to be at .500.

Brodie needs to move the puck fast at times. He holds on to the puck too long, every single time. Same for versteeg..... too many soft, inaccurate passes

Embarrassing because they stopped playing after they got the lead and paid for it.

GG Said Stajan was going to be on the team the entire year and that even tho there could be more talented younger guys he thinks players like Stajan are indispensable.

Hence Jankowski not on the team. Oh well, team loves to learn stuff the hard way.

The fact that you call this Gulutzans record instead of the teams record is quite telling
