no, you are not. :smug:

Bastard. :kick:

Well TBH its the whole damn team. This team right now has truely lost its heart, they need to get back to the game style last year where they controlled the puck and the game. I am not a big fan of all the forward lines that have been out there. Kopecky and Hossa should be playing on a line with Sharp where the three of them produced well with last year. Kane should be on the line with Toews, alongside Bickell or Skille. Bickell and Skille have been our most consistant scoring chance creators. Bolland hasn't been himself either, and needs to pull his head out of his ass. Our two stints without Brian Campbell put the old threads to rest. YES, Campbell is an important part of this team, we dont have that solid puck mover (Yes Keith can move the puck, but hes not a campbell) and quarterbacks our offense in the zone. Also shows that he is defensively reliable. Also our D needs to find their game. They have been ridiculous letting the goalies hang out to dry. Everyone can sit and say well its this guy, or that guy, well TBH they are all off their games right now. The cup was last season, time to forget all the distractions and focus on playing hockey.

I think this is a little harsh. I mean the team is still working on gelling with one another, and they're coming off a cup hangover. Yeah, they're not playing great hockey right now, but it's still only 4 games in and we're missing our two best d-men, one of whom hasn't seen any ice time. Once Soupy gets back, I think Hammer will be more on his game and likewise as the season progresses, the new guys will get more comfortable with the vets, and vice versa. It's early. Let's not panic before we actually have to.

You forgot a period. Which is ironic because I'm 99% sure you are on yours now.

ZING!

I have no idea what is wrong with Bolly.

Dude was an animal in the playoffs.

Starting to wonder if they regret that big contract.

Lets leave Leddy out of this. Can't score more than 2 goals on a rookie?

Bullshit. Let's not leave him out of this. The kid has zero defensive sense. There's absolutely no fucking good reason why he abandoned his spot last night when Hendry and Crawford had Dumont dealt with. He's costing us 1.1 million in dead capspace. What a worthless piece of shit. Replacing him with a stationary cone would better defend in this league as it wouldn't be out of position as often as he is. Send him to the ECHL where he belongs.

I have to agree, physically he cannot out push any forwards, in the offensive zone he is fine, but when it comes to hime clearing the crease hes not a reliable guy

Producing? He's got 4 assists I'll give him that he's had a ton of opportunitys to score and have not produced. Troy brouwer should be on the second line with Bryan Bickell on the first playing with Toews and Hossa. Kopy has hands of stone

While pretty much everything I stated was correct, I purposely facetiously took it to Joe extremes. Because of the current situation, he's being asked to play above his head, similar to what we're seeing with Scott and, in a way, Hendry (even though he's played only in 1 game, right?).
