They've been outplaying everyone for almost 2 seasons now....its just about to come together.

I am not saying this team is a no quit team.... the roster is quite similar to Hartleys team which was the definition of a no quit team so I don’t think it’s the players. They have shown they are hard workers when the coach demands it.

So...8 game winning streak starting Wednesday?

Seriously though, this team is embarrassing.

Can't score
Mentally fragile
System stinks
PP stinks
Coaching stinks

What a frustrating season. There'd better be some big changes this summer. If Gulutzan and Cameron are back next year, I may just have boycott hockey altogether.

This seriously hurts even more since I already have to deal with no Italy in the world cup this year. ****

What a punch in the nuts.

Boy what a disappointing season.

The Arena debacle really soured the beginning of a really promising season then they end up sucking at home and falling apart during the stretch.

Next year Bennett will un-bust!

Janko is junk. Has been for 50 games. Bottom 5 third line centre in the league.

I love how the stats nerds only chime in when the results fit their narrative. They have been pretty much invisible the last couple weeks.

Kinda like Oiler fans after American Thanksgiving.

If the entire coaching staff is let go do you think Sigalet is removed as well?

Now to add to the list of things I’m worried about our goaltending for next season.

Biggest game of the year, thought Frolik, Backlund, Ferland, Kulak were pretty bad.

I have a bad feeling Backlund is going to be a whipping boy as early as next season

I just don't understand how they interviewed Glue for 6 hours and couldn't remember the pummeling Hartley laid on the Canucks in the playoffs. Treliving even said he was the "perfect fit"

Get Sigalet the eff outta here too. 30th in GA with Hartley, yet somehow he survived the axe last time.

The team is a favourite for the Corsi cup though!

Great high danger scoring chance numbers!

A great team! Well, other than the win column.


We had a coach fired for being too ‘lucky’, I can’t imagine we’ll keep the coach who is always unlucky.

How do you explain a very similar roster to Hartleys no quit attitude with additions of Tkachuk and Smith!
I’m not a saying Hartley should be coach but he showed that these players can work hard when the right buttons are pushed. So I can lay everything at the coach.... it’s the only major difference from the team we saw a couple years ago.

I had a hunch we were going to lose this game when I heard GG's pregame interview on the Fan.

He said after the first goal last night in Vegas (that deflected in off Stone), the guys wanted to score a goal right away, but instead, GG told them to stick with the system, they still had to plenty of time left to even the score.

I can't believe he's still preaching to stick to his system the night after that 4-0 drubbing. I'm pretty sure the players have no confidence or faith in GG.
