1-0 Utah. #11 Guenther. As expected. First goal of the franchise history.

**** yeah. Finally. Futile pp but goal for TT from Bedard.

This first everything in club history stuff is getting kind of tired considering this is essentially the Phoenix Coyotes.

1-3

Smith
Maroon
Donato
Martinez
Jones/brodie

2-3 Utah. Despite a completely horrific power play unit and performance all around so far they're only down a goal.

They beat themselves. But also the ice was shit and explains why there hasn't been hockey in Utah

My favorite teams
  1. Portland Timbers
  1. Chicago Blackhawks
Loss is on LR's shoulders. They didn't come in ready to play and the team was doing everything that LR has come out to the press saying they shouldn't do.

The 2nd and 3rd were good periods, but the 1st killed us.

More starts like that and I think Richardson is shit-canned. I think the level of play in the 2nd, which was at the level of Utah, is what we should expect from this group night in and night out.

Definitely looked not ready to play....seemed to be a stride behind....did this team look slow, or was my watching them slow?

When you sign 7-8 guys over 30 during a rebuild; you're gonna look slow.....because you are slow.

Half the d are plodders
The entire 4th line is slow
The 2nd pp unit is slow (and bad)

This team should be better...on paper...but I'm not sure they actually get out of the cellar in the division.
