Stop, Are we really even stating Cappy’s name vs a Trotz and Lou run team????
Come on Keaner you are better than that.

History is on my side. That's not a comparison of the coaches, but has been a constant between both.

This team is lost. Too slow. Still not shooting enough.

Everyone was standing still. Then Barzal tried to beat everyone by himself.

I mean most coaches go with experience. The results that Trotz and Lou have had in 2 years versus the decade long Snow Crappy shat show isn’t even debatable really. Just my opinion but hard to debate.

Wonder if they’ll get embarrassed at some point. Enough is enough.

You're missing or distorting the point. It's not a 'is Barry as bad as Capp' 'commentary, that's beyond silly. But they are both coaches that do not favor youthful skill over a veteran presence. That has remained a constant.

I Just want to apologize to the HB GM’s as taking Leo and Zajac off of Barzal’s line has made such a difference. Barzal was a totally different player.

That was just a disaster of a game. Even JGP was turning over the puck. Pulock, Pelech were bad too. When those guys a rofr you know it’s a complete disaster. Maybe that was rock bottom.

I get that and the first thing I said is most coaches do. Which referenced experience vs youngsters.
My point is Crappy shouldn’t even be mentioned in the same breath as Trotz let alone the same sentence. Just my opinion of course but by God hard to debate. There’s just no substance there for me.

Whelp, about the only cause for optimism is that we have two goalies that can keep us in any game. Beyond that, this team does not look like it can stack up against the other three divisional contenders post deadline.

Even after Lee got hurt, they looked better before the deadline than they do now. Maybe it's all the line changes, but there are entire games now where they look like they've never played together before.
