I actually want a full on tank to happen. I hope we end up being the worst team in the NHL this season and get a high draft pick. Then fire the coach during the offseason and hire someone competent. If the still suck next season, blow this bitch up.

Can't wait to see next game with Chiasson dragging down the Gaudreau line yet again. I have given GG the benefit of the doubt so far but I am starting to get on board with the pitchfork gang here.

Special teams help lose yet another game.

Johnny scored a couple, but Monahan, Gio and Brodie all could be a lot better. Kinda boring waiting for your best players to show up on a continual basis. That's a lot of money that's not doing much positive.

Notice we don't get any tv shots of Treliving and Burke watching the game.

I think we're seeing textbook overcoaching, way too much emphasis on a million little details with no fun or creativity involved. When you put a million little catchphrases, like Glue Gun loves to use, in the players heads they can't think straight. Manage the game, it's a process, defensive systems, pressure in the o-zone blah blah blah at no point are they ever just playing hockey. He's overcomplicating it and giving them way too much to learn at once, put the puck in the opposition net protect Elliott.

I agree with the sentiment a potted plant would be better, having no coach would be better because then the players wouldn't have GlueGuns stupid catchphrases in their ears all the time. He talks too much while saying very little, too many words not enough pragmatism not enough fun.

Just no logic in some of these moves. Do they need a little of Jay Feaster's intellectual honesty?


The most successful season we have had in a decade was 90% built by Jay Feaster. Seriously, what has Treliving done that has improved this team? He's got a few moves that look good on paper (Dougie, Frolik, Brouwer, Elliott) but the on ice product has gotten worse since he started to put his stamp on the team. And, my god, the coaching hire. Jesus, they all suck.

How exactly would you like him to do that? Go out on TV and say the PP sucks and so does the coach? An address to season ticket holders saying he screwed up? How do you know he hasn't already taken responsibility and is working on a solution?

How much longer can Treliving go before addressing the coaching staff? Going 0% at home is embarrassing and frankly unacceptable. I don't care about moral victories and how much the boys are putting in the time. The results are not there and won't be there until changes are made.

The team had 3 days to prepare for this game and once again special teams decided the game.

Crappy filmed tv quality but please watch this gif and tell me why Chiasson is on the first powerplay unit, let alone out there trying for the tying goal in the final minutes.

It's gonna take balls of steel for Treliving to fire his hand picked coach 15 games into the season. Not that it isn't deserved, they all should be unemployed, but he might be signing his own pink slip if he does.

I have no desire to go to the game on Saturday night and watch the coaches and the team get burned by the Rangers.
