Goaltending has been subpar too in recent weeks. They still have way too much talent to choke it away even with a few guys missing, but I think that Gordon-Cote are truly horrendous doofuses so who knows. I believe Hagg and Leier are getting healthier. But they've always been a team that gets by solely on talent.
Penguins farm team is still above them and routinely dominates them head to head, and they're not more talented, especially on the backend it's not close. Guentzel their best player was called up too a while ago. Penguins team just runs a system like their pro team -- unlike the Phantoms who seem to still emulate the Berube era in style -- and their coaching is good and has always been good. Phantoms always feel like they're walking a fine line, even when doing well. I still see them making it, tough as it is.

When should we expect Hextall to remove these two horrendous doofuses?
