6 Regulation Wins in their last 22 games. Fucking ouch...I knew it was bad just from the eye test...that record is downright depressing.

6 Regulation Wins in their last 22 games. I have a busy day at work today glad I said fuck it , heads needs to roll . The thing that scares me is just how other GMs are looking at us right now. We may still be in the playoff race, but we're a mess so I'm not sure if DS is still dealing from a position of strength. He's made some decent moves and seems to be pretty measured when it comes to the larger deals, but how much pressure is he feeling right now? I would have to say that the team couldn't have picked a worse time to shit the bed as we're only a little over a week out from the trade deadline. I truly hope that he's smart enough to recognize that this team has NO fucking shot at a Cup and doesn't mortgage the organization more than he already has just for a round of playoff profit. I mean, seriously, all one has to do is compare this year's roster to last and you have to know they aren't anywhere near as deep and talented and that team choked out in the 1st round. This team would be lucky to win a couple of games and depending on who they played, I don't believe a sweep would be much of a shock to even plebs like us. Ride out this season, if there are moves that will improve us long term make them and then let it play out however it does. This ain't our year and if DS and CN go about business like it is, then we're screwed.

Another 65 minute loss in a game trying to rid the stench of the last two. Two blown leads, 18 possessions taken away on top of 6 that were given away. A total of 11 hits given the WHOLE game of which only 2 came from defensemen. Seems like part of the problem is that something like puck possession, puck support and finishing checks here is optional and not mandatory. How bout we scrap the whole goalie rotation nonsense and pick a starter and backup like the rest of the world and not worry about feelings. If there’s trade that addresses the black whole in the middle, make it. If not shed the dead wood.

Read an article yesterday with Neely talking about what the Bruins needs are this year , there not a Player or two away unless the Player is Crosby and Makar 😂

What’s the biggest issue lately?

Hopefully, DS is on the same page.

Thankfully there is a loser point in most of those games. Listening to the Players like Marchand and Pasta they sound tired of talking. I would be too. And to be honest, with the exception of an odd game here and there, those two have been the only ones to show up consistently every night.

Strictly on a stats front, lack of a true number 1 center, bad fundamentals with a smidge of arrogance thrown in. And I can't stress the second enough. Game after game after game, how many passes are off the mark, thrown to an opposing player, or miss everyone for icings? The lack of just basic decision making, especially in their own end is fucking astonishing to behold. These clowns are trying to pull off passes around and through people and the opposition is wise to it. I swear, I've watched pee wee players that have better on ice awareness than most of these guys most nights.

As you know there’s a lot of issues but I’d say at this moment probably lack of confidence is the biggest issue right now. When Ullmark scored on himself last night we fell apart for a stretch. When we came out of the 2nd intermission up 2-1 Seattle opened with 8 or 9 straight shots. We stop skating and started thinking instead of reacting and knowing. The coach panics on cue just like all the previous games and plays the shit out of our few stars and lets everyone else sit on the bench. The guy has no answers, how’s the team supposed to stay poised when the coach is panicking.

Totally at a loss for words at this stage. My expectations are very low. I just hope Sweeney doesn't fuck up this deadline too badly at this point.

I’m worried about outside pressure from ownership because it’s the centennial year. Realistically the only things we should do is housekeeping, don’t let Jake walk at the end of the season for nothing, if teams want Ullmark bad enough he should make the deal. Otherwise let it ride, we won’t miss Debrusk, we don’t need two starting goalies we’ll be fine having one starter like every other team in the league.
