It was a low percentage play. Grossmann has been in the League too long to try and make that play. He's doing what he's told.

It is all on Lava. The man has every NHL player looking like they belong in Juniors. Have a pitchfork to share?

Our #1 pp. is so damn good. Isn't that more motivation to tighten it up 5 on 5. Will our pp go to poop when lava leaves?
- Just5


Joe Mullen still runs the PP I think? Maybe Lava doesn't have as much to do with it.

Selling is different than trying to make playoffs this year.

I think that the effort was there, but they played very dumb for twenty minutes and nobody did anything about it-the coach, the veteran leadership, nobody.

I think you are right on. There is no quick fix for this team. They have a lot if nice young talent but they're still a work in progress.

Not sure whats worse; the unforced turnovers high in the offensive zone or the terrible positional play in the defensive zone. Other than the 1st team pp, this team is an utter mess.

No need to have a crystal ball or tell the future. It's not that complicated of a game.

Maybe he is a hemophiliac, and will be unable to return.

Gotta to hold the coach accountable. Look at Ottawa, lost some key players, adjusted, competes every night and will most likely make the playoffs. Lavys gotta go!

Im done debating. Its really damn predictable by now. Debate, debate, debate.

Every year its blindly defending any player that puts on the jersey. Nobody can do no wrong. Shelley, Carle, Gervais, Richards, Carter, JVR, Leighton, Bryzgalov, Nodl, every god damn player is a saint that does no wrong.

Maybe other teams are better because they have a decent amount of players that are better? What a crazy idea. Waste of time.

So give up a good asset to get a goalie even though we have a capable one?

No thanks. It's asinine.

I've supported him but he does.

I'd fire most of the damn players, but the coach himself has to go.
