  1. This roster is horrendous. Still no elite forward, Still no help for Seider, Powerplay worse, board play worse, scoring worse, effort lapses worse.. goaltending worse, nearly unwatchable. 6 years in we still don’t have an elite player. Trade prospects… draft picks… do a complete youth movement… SOMETHING. Inject some life into this apathetic fan base. Brutal hockey.

  2. Can’t breakout
    Can’t defend a breakout
    Can’t score PP goals because it’s the most predictable PP in the league
    Can’t PK because their system is beer league
    Overhaul the system
    Get a new coach

  3. There’s a fair amount of talent on this roster and they shouldn’t look so incompetent and lost. LaLonde hasn’t been able to fire these guys up or correct the glaring problems that just go on and on……….

  4. Steve needs to make some major changes befor we are 5-20. We spent way too much cap this year to be playing this bad. It’s unwatchable. I belive our AHL team can put up more of a fight at this point. It’s a disgrace to the city and legacy of the franchise.

  5. I can’t say one good thing about tonight. The offense was good but couldn’t find the net the defense was terrible like always and the coaching sucked. Like always.

  6. If you can’t defend, you are not a playoff team. There should be no “trying to get better”…. NHL isn’t a development league for veterans. You didn’t look any better against Pittsburgh who you should be fighting for a playoff spot so the reality is the veterans lack of execution despite their over priced salary and terrible goaltending

  7. The poweplay setup is so obvious for the opposing team to defend, which is so stressful to watch when they can’t bury one. The PK is the most frustrating to watch. They need to change there style to actually attack and apply pressure to the other team. Too slow and stationary. Hopefully the next coach that gets hired, will have guys like Kasper, Mazur, Danielson and deploy an aggressive approach on the poweplay and most importantly the PK.

  8. This team is a disgrace to hockey. Larkin, Raymond and Seider are the only players who care about winning. Doesn’t help that our coach is unmatched when it comes to bringing no energy to a group of people.

  9. Offense so far in 4 games:

    Kane 0 goals, 1 assist.

    Tarasenko 1 goal

    Copp 1 goal
    Berggren 0 points (his line mates aren't any better or have much skill to help him produce)

    Rasmussen 0 points

    Motte 0 points

    Veleno 0 points

    The rest of our "top offense" have produced a little but still missed many chances so far. At least our saving grace Raymond is 4 points in 4 games so far.

    Looks like we having issues in everything – powerplay, goaltending, defending, penalty kill and just general offense. Pre season looked pretty bad and I guess I am not surprised it hasn't turned around. Something has got to give

  10. No one was good tonight. This system they're supposed to play is still too hard for them to pull off with any consistency. I really think Lalonde might need to change his approach somewhat, or he'll be changing where he lives, possibly by the end of the season.

  11. Chiarot talking about offensively minded players not buying into playing D while he's trying to always be on defense.. getting the puck and firing it back to the other team on a shite stretch pass every time is one way to get the team to practice playing defense all game.

  12. Lalonde should have been fired last year. Yzerman needs to wake up and fire him. They need a coach who will demand a consistent work ethic. I sound like a broken record. I've been saying this stuff for a year. Also bring up the kids – Kasper especially and buyout Copps contract. Team seems like they want Lalonde fired. They look and sound apathetic.
