To be honest. This is on the players from what I saw. This is play where the players have to decide to give 100% every shift and make something happen. There were almost zero times someone drove the play in the game. No passion, no hustle, irresponsible with the puck and sloppy.
If I was playing tonight I would be ashamed of my play. But for now, I will weep while on the toilet and call it a night. Ugh.

I get that, but it's also Quinn's job to make sure the players are fired up. He did bench Miller and ADA, deservedly so.
Torts wouldn't have put up with this nonsense.

True, but when in game where you see none of your players driving plays and taking dumb penalties, there is only so much a coach can do. No is where the work needs to happen.

Kind of, saying he didn't play enough players. Reduced the time of too many players

Technically this is the best gif ever, but that's a close second.

I believe he was referring to lack of ice time due to way too many penalties. When you take that many penalties it reduces playing time of players that need to be on the ice.

He said that after, but I'm pretty sure he was also referring to Quinn's bench management

Just tuned back in. Missed that, Vally roasting Shesty. He seems pissed, rightly so.

That was simply unacceptable. This team, with so much excitement around it, was just outclassed by the other team in town.

Panarin, Kakko, Kreider, Trouba, Fox. Can point the finger at just about anyone. JJ was not the issue tonight, but he comes just as billed. Just plain ol’ stinky doo doo bad.

I hope Quinn has what it takes to get these guys going. It’s only game one, so enough time to right the ship. After all, the only way is up!

Missed the first and half of the second, so can't comment on that. Lack of hustle should have been addressed in the room between periods by the Captains.

Isles also have nearly the same team as last season. Definitely not excusing the lack of effort, Isles have better chemistry.

I think a good tell tale sign will be how they respond to coaching after this game and to the leaders in the locker room for next game.
If they come out flying and look ready, then we can chalk it up to the 1st game. If they play the same, there may be some red flags for coaching and leadership.

Pretty much.
Only thing that has me worried about Quinn is that they didn't show up in the bubble.
