Normally I would not take this to seriously but you see it when you watch him. He stopped all the energy and the on ice banter. He rotates in and out, plays a soft style of defense, and stopped creating chances. He has become like Joker but with a ring and a higher pedigree. I am gonna be really interested in what Adams offers to pay this guy over the veteran 2C that he discarded. Cant wait to see what 2C he brings in because Cozens is looking like a 3C and Krebs is not the guy right now.

You have brought up Parayko before. I like the player but he is not worth nearly what you propose. Joker or Mule and #2 pick is even trade for Parayko today.

Yes. I think 8 players in total need to be upgraded. Luckily many are bottom 6 so not too hard to do that part of it. I wish we had a grown man on defense somewhere. Give me Clifton’s jam in a heavy weight body and include hockey brains and winning pedigree. That is why I ponder the Mitts for Byram trade. He is not that guy. Maybe he is better than I see? But we need the guy I describe in the top 4. Mule isn’t physical enough and he gets hurt a lot - I hope he could be that guy. Replacing Mitts is a priority.

If that is the plan then interview Ruff, Gallant, Berube and at least one highly regarded up and coming guy. Make this the job coaches want. Have real criteria in place BEFORE the interviews start. Evaluate based on the criteria , then pick a coach. Support the coach and give him freedom to go his way, and take his inputs into the roster. In other words, run a professional organization.

They lost a lot of games in the first period. They fall behind and then they press. The other team can play a simpler game if they lead by 2 goals after 1 period. You are a good stat guy. Look it up. How many winning teams consistently lose the first period? Maybe they got better after the first admission because they woke up. I doubt the coaches did anything, what was the adjustment? Stop passing to the guys in Red? Take more shots? They didn’t score after the first.

Hey, they drafted Benson at 13 last year and he made the team. What does that say about the level of our forwards? Looking forward to see what Adams does with this coaching staff. Looking forward to how Adams handles Byram’s contract. Looking forward to see how they replace Mitts. Looking forward to acquiring a big, tough, hard hitting heavyweight defenseman. Looking forward to adding a power forward. Looking forward to fixing the 4th line. Looking forward to Adams replacing the 8 worst players on this team next year.

Once again a bad start. Big mistakes by young players. Once we fell behind we got Lyoned like last year versus Florida. Just not enough. Dahlin and Tage came to play but the lineup overall has a lot of garbage players, and lacks players that know how to win at this level. I’m really starting to not like the Mitts for Byram trade. We need a center badly and created a huge hole. Is Adams going to hand a job to a prospect? We will find out.
