To make the playoffs you need to win hockey games.

To win hockey games you need to score more goals than the other team.

The teams with the best rosters make the playoffs.

Not really rocket science but I’m glad I was able to dumb it down even further for you lol

- Swedish_Jesus

Thats not true. The best rosters don't always make the playoffs.

You still hae to play the games. Just ask the 2022-23 Washington Capitals.

He’s the best RB in the league between the 20’s no doubt. Something in him changes in the red zone.

Too bad literally every team we needed to lose this weekend won, so we tread water…

But seriously we could see 3 or 4 backup QB’s in the playoffs this season in the AFC alone.

Bills are a lot like the Sabres. Look like the best/worst team in the league on any given night. Catch by Diggs has to be highlight of the night on ESPN

You point to some prospects and rookies say ya were good, let them cook

Then you say talented teams make the playoffs

The sabres are nowhere near the playoffs so which one is it?

- ieetbred


And it’s due to the play of their rookies/sophomores ?

Or is it the core that is being ravaged by injuries and the coaching staff for not getting the most out of the core when healthy ?

She’s German-Canadian.

We are all terrified of her.

(She’s absolutely wonderful, but there is 0.00% chance of the football game being on).

The rookies/sophomores players aren’t making enough positive impact to make up for the injuries. The team is bad, adding rookies to the team doesn’t increase the chance they will win, they added more rookies/sophomores this season and significantly regressed. You as usual are blinded by potential that doesn’t even fit the holes in the roster.

No, the rookies and sophomores you want to cook aren't solving their problems. They also have a style of player problem that to some degree can be solved with coaching but it will always be there

Another take defending this roster ignoring the fact they missed they playoffs last year and 5 of their core players had career years under the same coaching staff. Incosistent, young, poor veteran presence. All which will remain problems by continuing to rely on prospects and rookies to fill holes

So please tell me who all the talented players are that will drag all the other players without playoff experience along with them

Doesn’t decrease the chance that they’ll win either.

The regression has nothing to do with the age and experience of the roster players added.

The only reason this team has been watchable the season is because of Benson and Peterka lol.

If you can play, you can play. Age is just a number and experience is mostly overrated.

Adding Patty Kane and all of that experience to the Red Wings roster is certainly doing wonders
