i was at the game today! You guys need to quit passing the puck a million times and actually shoot! We could’ve easily won if yall would’ve shot. Also, when you get the puck, skate it down and shoot. Don’t wait for everyone else get down there just go for it. Love y’all. LGB💙💛
Coach said it all–too many guys slow to pucks, not winning board battles, seemingly disinterested in really competing. On the one hand sure, you kind of hope it's just because it's preseason and just wanting to get through these games uninjured, but you can't expect to just flip the switch when the games count. Some of it may be new guys still learning tendencies of their teammates, but I've been watching this team for 40+ years, and I know when the team isn't bringing the effort–and I'm not alone in that: any fan that knows and watches the game(s) can see it. Even during the short time we had the lead, I wasn't comfortable, because we were getting beat to pucks, telegraphing passes and getting outworked all over the ice. Let's hope Thursday is Much better. Let's Go Blues!
I think this watched way they played last year not shooting to much passing but it's preseason new guys
Tonight’s roster was a veteran team, everyone on it played in the NHL last year. So, there’s no – they’re just learning the game excuse. Hopefully, this was just veterans saving it for the regular season.
It's a good thing all these pros are here in the comments . Otherwise how would any of these players know how to play and coaches know how coach
I stopped watching the game after this team stopped playing. It's too bad the veterans don't play as well or as hard as the newbies. We had way too many games like this one last season which is why we didn't make the playoffs. It's the little things. Too many poor passes, bouncing pucks and missed chances. If we have another season like what we saw last night you can forget making the playoff again. Very frustrating and boring hockey. The Chicago game was so much better. We never come to play the Blue Jackets. Why do we always suck against them when they aren't really "that good"?
Anyone else think Thomas looks bad so far? It looks like he didn't come ready for the season.
Whelp looks like a dead season. Fucking sucks man.
