Goalie

He literally put up zero points in 15 20 games then was finally benched. At what point.

Need to airlift defensive lineman in cuz the current guys ain’t it.

Part of draft and development is the development part. Rutger shouldn’t be handed a spot.

I got a kick out of was it the color guy. He said something about well big play upcoming and mentioned bighill being a guy who will shut it down. Next play bighill nowhere to be found. it’s not rust after 3 games.

At what point right. That’s 3 games and he’s been torched every game and doesn’t look like he wants to even tackle. The long bomb was bad. The attempt to tackle was embarrassing

The DL with Thomas getting more reps than he should is the reason the D looks so bad. No pressure generated basically all game. Hollins and McCinnis vs kramdi and BA. It’s just not fair lol.

Perhaps but I concentrated on him a couple times and it appeared he wasn’t doing much of anything. Really did give neufeld against Ottawa vibes. At one point I thought it looked like the jets players quitting on Dave Lowry. This was first half. No doubt tho Thomas being basically a waste of a spot doesn’t help tho.

When Owen Hubert replaced Willy he was getting penetration. Fayad got more pressure. Yes Willy prob being double teamed but if you focus on him on some plays, he’s not really trying even. It appears he just isn’t interested in engaging. Like neufeld against Ottawa.

That’s basically exactly what is has happening here.

Why? I’d imagine similar to the Philly trade of cutter gauthier. I’d imagine like a David jiricek (rhd) from Columbus straight up for Rutger works

Also Collaros looks off throwing the ball. Lots of the catches last night were pretty spectacular. The demski one where he tipped it to himself and the woli one where he had to reach back come to mind.

Walters signed Thomas and Alexander as FAs in the off season so unfortunately it’s not just O’Shea. Could have just let them walk or release them also. So the vets are there to not make plays I suppose. With the injury situation this is when you not only want but need your vets and higher paid guys to step up. He didn’t. It was the rooks making plays.

Who cares. He’s a guy who thinks he should be gifted a spot on a 110 point team I’d trade him also for more than he’s worth. Dudes skating isn’t up to snuff in the nhl. You can’t gift him a top 6 spot.

I’ll say this. If you don’t trust the highest paid player in the league to make 3rd and 6 then why is he the highest paid guy in the league. Collaros is also on the back 9 of his career like a few of the other guys. Thomas Biggie Kyrie BA neufeld are all near the end. They all on the green putting at 18. Osh needs to tell them they didn’t Make the cut tho. Until that happens we don’t win. Jake Thomas playing 80 percent of the reps= we don’t win. Willy looking like he could care less = not gonna win. Hubert outplaying him = cut in my opinion. Biggie and BA and Kyrie always a step or 2 behind. Hell 3 or 4 steps behind. That’s 2 or even all 3 where BA has been torched and forgot how to tackle. At what point. I hope it’s either you start cutting these guys or it’s your ass is gone scenario with O’Shea. I actually get the 3 and 6 logic. But the D couldn’t stop a peewee team. Ppl talk about for every rookie you play but what about for every washed up vet you play, you probably lose more.

Wasn’t a fan of proulx at first, but he’s grown on me lots.

1. Strev - brought the fire and the emotion that this team seriously lacks. It’s contagious stuff. Ask 2.Woli - brought it for sure. 3. Hubert and Fayad. Both looked solid. HH Castillo. BA Biggie Willy look done. Thomas is beyond done. Time to make a statement and release a Vet or 2.

Cut ba Jake biggie. Sign m Bennett. bring back a tre Thomas and several receivers.

Suitor says we aren’t far off then dead silence as he’s lol ing I’m sure. we screwed. Time for legit roster changes.

This is ballsy. Cuz season series stuff.

There’s Bighill. 2 steps behind again.

Cherry on top here. Where’s our linebackers. lol.

BA was beat tho and then his effort to tackle was not there.

It’s over.

And BA is done.

This is game.
