I think they do have talent but they need someone to start screaming at them.

I don't love the coaching staff, my current biggest gripes is with Newell Brown. He has all the talents to work with but yet it's stagnant and now to make it worse he's moved Brock out of his one timer spot and replaced him with Bo who's a lefty that can't one time it from the left side so teams just collapse on EP.

How long do you let the losing streak go? Until the season is wasted again. You know the team is better than this.

When exactly is the perfect time to make a coaching change?

If they ever want to change the GM they should come here and interview a few people.

Management needs to learn how to interview people.

I think this is a surprising take coming from you. It seems too angry, too early.

hmm good question



Probably when the team is a lot lower than 11th in point percentage and 7th in goal differential coming into this game


Now if you wanna talk about Newell Brown then I'll probably agree with you

more like the highs and lows of an 82 game schedule in a parity-driven league



but don't let me interrupt the freakouts, I know there's a group on here who get aroused by them

The assistant coaches have gotten complacent since they were extended. Another Benning screw up. Fire them all, trade everyone, start the rebuild again. It’s the only rational course.

I think the coaching staff is not good but they did just extend everybody after they had 9 good games so there is that.

I can see Jim in his office on Monday calling them in to explain he may have mis-spoken when he said raise.

I don’t disagree about Brown. Apparently Hughes is the only guy allowed to move his feet on the PP.

Remember when the PP and Brown were getting praise for swapping EP and Boesser to their off wings for that 1 PP?

Good times.


I actually am thinking it was a mere mistake that resulted in a goal and raise for the coaches

Another smaller gripe wit Brown. Last couple of games I believe he's had Edler on the 2nd unit with 4 leftover forwards up front. One of the benefits of signing Myers was his shot on the PP and yet Brown is throwing out 4 3rd liner talents + Edler on the 2nd unit. The 2nd unit usually only gets 20-40 seconds to work with so it's not a huger deal, but it's just bizarre.

Why not just run the 2nd unit through Myers and let him fire away with traffic on front? God knows that unit isn't going to be passing the puck around on a string. Worst case Myers gets attention from the PK and creates more space for the forwards on the unit.

I think it’s hilarious how you go on about whiners and are the only people whining.

Since probably their best game of the year in STL. They have basically failed to show up since.

Don't even know how Green is not chopped if they lose this game.

Gonna need you to take it down 30-35% there bud

Very reasonable observation. Now why are the Canucks so stumped on hitting the net against the Devils?

How's the game been?

I see the usual female doging but not much about the play.

That's fine. I am entitled to an opinion.

changed how many players over the years and they are falling into the same patterns

Name a constant?

Blackwood is the new Curtis Sanford, mediocre goalie who owns the Nucks
