Oilers this year, complete turnaround. Rich Tocchet Vancouver. Look at how much a coaching change (or refresh) improves the team. Barry Trotz completely dominated Sullivan 8-2 in 2018 and 2019 playoffs with two different teams, following our back to back cups. Look at how this team misses on details and some simple mechanics (i.e. the PP is a liability). Sullivan got outcoached and the writing should have been on the wall then. It is offensively apparent now.
My gut says Dubas was a mistake….and I really hoped for the opposite. Don’t like how this episode ended what so ever…..
😶
The trades have me wondering wtf are they doing
The Guentzel trade demoralized this team entirely. It would feel different if Dubas shipped out everybody for anything like Smith, Rakell, and Ned, but he didn't. Nobody cares more than they have to at this point past making a paycheck, maybe even including Crosby. As much as this team liked to make-believe that they're still a contender and winning now isn't a total long shot, Guentzel getting traded off was the morale blow that crushed the last of this team's already dying spirit. If you don't think every player, especially the veterans sitting in that locker room arent wondering what hellish direction this team is headed in and what their options are, you don't see the realistic short term(seemingly eternity long) future of this organization. The worst part is, the Crosby Era isn't even over… we're watching one of the galaxies brightest stars being sucked into a black hole of a hockey team. This isn't Experience the Evelution anymore… heck, it's hardely even a great day for hockey.
DK with all that’s going on with this team do you think Sidney Crosby will sign an extension as soon as it’s possible to do so?? I think that’s my main concern right now. His legacy is important to Pittsburgh. Also being born in Pittsburgh I feel like it’s sad what hextall and Dubas have done to this franchise. I know other GMs traded the future but they have a few cups in the trophy case.
Wasn't it suspected that hextall was tasked with the job of breaking up the band? Thats why the malking contract extension didnt get signed until the "uncomfortable" last minute ?
FSG doesn't even know the Pens are still playing. If they did they would see the empty seats. Ticket sales might be close to 100% now, but that is going to drop next season, and will continue as the team continues to struggle. Maybe then they will pay attention.
Dump him.
Time for Sully to go . He can't adjust to new play style and his changing players . In fact , time for the Staff to go . Pens have wasted a lot of talent on that team . And Letang needs to be taught how to play Defense . Almost every Goal Against Letang is on the Ice . He needs to retire .
