Knucklhd Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 4 minutes ago, DeNiro said: Exactly. We had more than enough time set up and looks at the net to take shots but it’s like they have no interest in shooting unless it’s a perfect cross ice pass or perfectly placed one timer. Agreed, it's like they are addicted to the highlight goal and won't settle for the greasy, straight forward ones. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This team is fine, it is slumping, it happens. They have things to work on, so does every team. They have played great all year and continue to bounce back. We are going to the playoffs, which anyone would have been happy with before the season started. Enjoy the ride and look forward to playoff hockey!! We are happy but realize, we've had absolutely nothing to complain about all season long, so we finally have something worthwhile to vent about. Do have any idea what's it's like to go a half a season without venting?????????????? OMG!!!!!

Which is the majority of goals scored in the playoffs. Honestly if I’m Allvin I’m looking for a Coleman type player. This team is lacking that.

Right now it seems there's a lot of individual play. But man do some changes to the PP. 2 minutes of passing drills is not cutting it. Canucks played a great game against a big talented opponent. The difference; the PP is officially costing us games now, something has to be done. I’d start with getting Petey off it…maybe get Hronek out there at point; use miller in Petey role and Hughes in Millers spot. I don’t know what is up with Petterson, but he’s slow, weak on his skates and the pick, and isn’t hustling at all. If he’s injuried, that fine, but shelter his minutes please.

Rounoush Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 I mean the PP struggles can be simplified to a lack of confidence but when that happens the PP itself needs to simplify and they just aren't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocket-68 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 (edited) 12 hours ago, HKSR said: Dunno who's supposed to start the PGTs, but whoever it is is awfully slow to get there. So I've made one. Anyways, stop the panic. The 2010-11 team literally played .500 hockey between Feb 7th and Mar 3rd that season. This team is doing fine. For a silver lining, I present: 1) Right in there all the way through the game 2) Last team to be saddled with the moniker "3 losses in a row" 3) Throwing away the Vancouver Canucks vs Minnesota Wild / Ref Fusion, the success over the last "while" has been with a Power Play that has been in a wee bit of a tailspin, yes we scored one yesterday. 4) Bains looks like he belongs (very small sample size yes) and if coaches give him a few more games to prove it then all the bitching and moaning about jettisoning some Cap Space will be much easier for PA / JR to manage knowing there is a capable low cost player to fill in a spot that one of the pricier players is currently occupying - Hello Cap Space my old friend, I so wanted to love you long time again, 5) Once the PP donkey cart that is currently keeled over on its side gets righted, then salad days will be coming back with a vengeance On the last one, perhaps finding a power play coach might be the ticket - although adding this late in the season may be too much. Neville Brown worked wonders with the 2010-2011 team and the skill on this team isn't dogshit compared to that team for PP. 6) Flying Phil might just be signed 7) Trades incoming for a Cam Neely type player (well, maybe not that good of a player) given point (4) - let him prove he stays coaches.

We are going to the playoffs, which anyone would have been happy with before the season started. Enjoy the ride and look forward to playoff hockey!! Partly I think it has to do with the fear that a few losses signals the beginning of a collapse and that what we have done up to now was smoke and mirrors. Teams go through ups and downs during the year. We’ve had few downs and mostly ups. Just so happens the times we play these teams like Bos, Jets, Col are the times we are not playing that well. Wonder how we would have fared playing these teams during our great 7 day road trip earlier this year? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
