Forge Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Oh hey, look. Defense completely crumbles, plays like crap, and we blow a two goal lead with three unanswered. Serious question, how many of our current defensemen should have a long term future here (past next season?). Severson because of the contract. Is that it? I know we will probably sign butcher since he's just restricted, but honestly, he probably shouldn't have a long term future here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm either trading Severson or moving him to RW. He's just not good in his own zone. The rest of them aren't worth the jockstrap they put on every game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I love that we call up Murphy, he actually isn't horrible in his one game, so we immediately send him down so we can keep playing Lovejoy. Wtf. He's possibly been laying the worst of his career this season, and that is truly saying something. We have Murphy and yakovlev sitting there, younger guys we could get an evaluation on through the rest of the season in order to determine if we want to bring them back, but nope, let's keep rolling Lovejoy out there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude has no clue what he's doing. He only got extended because he's buddy buddy with Shero and that's a big problem for me. I can't stand cronyism in sports. Hynes and his staff (outside Nasreddine) can't evaluate or develop talent to save their lives. We've still never even gotten to see what we've got in Santini either because he can't get consistent playing time due to playing veterans in a vain attempt to win. We suck. Play and develop the youth. Last year was fun but it's obviously over-inflated Hynes' self worth. Dude sucks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forge Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Man, I really don't want to buy Cory out and have a 3 million dollar hit for the next 45 years, but jfc, I have no idea what else can be done at this point. He's just so damn bad man. Like, he can't even catch the puck. He's just getting in the way sometimes and the rebounds just kick out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forge Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Well, if there's a positive to be taken from the game, it's that possibly our two most stable and consistent players, a twenty year old sixth round pick and a teenager, fired a ton of pucks at the net. 8 shots for Bratt, 7 for Nico. That's huge because something I want both of them to work on is getting more shots (Bratt in particular as he was a really nice shot, and he's not going to have the linemates that Nico is going to have typically). Bratt was really good at creating space, had a couple of nice passes to boot. Nico pretty much ground the entire game out - they were collapsing on him whenever he had the puck, and he still was good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outside of Smith and possibly Blackwood, Nico and Jesper are the only young guys I'm really excited about with this team. LIS before, we have so many damn holes to fill thanks to Lou leaving the cupboard bare and Shero not quite putting the proper developmental coaching around them throughout the system. At this point, I think we're going to end up having to trade Hall because I don't see any way that we're good soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beekay414 Posted February 16, 2019 Author Share Posted February 16, 2019 lol like I said with Santini, the dude can't get a fair shake to get into any sort of rhythm. I mean, what ******* purpose does it serve to activate Eric freaking Gryba over him? Hynes is beyond dumb. PLAY THE DAMN YOUTH, YOU BASTARD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beekay414 Posted February 16, 2019 Author Share Posted February 16, 2019 Lines tonight (a game I actually get to watch on FS Wisconsin) Wood-Zajac-Palmieri Johansson-Hischier-Bratt Agostino-Zacha-Anderson Stafford-Rooney-Gabriel (as I call it the UGH HYNES line) Greene-Severson Mueller-Gryba (lol) Butcher-Lovejoy (lol) We not only have little talent, we have a head coach that couldn't find his way out of a paper bag.

Lovejoy / Gryba / Gabriel as opposed to...I Don't know...anyone else? I'm completely off Hynes.

I'm completely off Hynes. There's no reason for this type of nonsense. There is ZERO reason that Stafford, Gabriel and Rooney should be on this roster, at this point, over the likes of Quenneville, McLeod and even someone like Blake Speers or Marian Studenic. Gryba and Lovejoy (who hopefully gets dealt at the deadline) should be a combination of Santini, Murphy, Sissons, Jacobs or Yakovlev. It's not hard. We suck something fierce, those vets are garbage.
