The one trick is scoring goals. If we had decent goaltending he would not be discussed as a problem. 

 

VO is being used as a scapegoat 

Man I stay out of the VO wars. I was surprised he wasn’t moved at the deadline to a contender. A team that’s really close that could use a goal scorer. Use him sparingly, then turn him loose on PP. If we trade him, eventually we will be looking for a “goal scorer”.  I’m not wading into the argument, especially how heated it  is with this freaking game. Plus I’m no expert. I am open to discussion only. That last part wasn’t meant for you.

We lost to Columbus, Washington and Flyers. We might be the worst team last 10-12 games

[triumph_communes]

Team that was scoring 4+ goals a game can’t score more than 1 anymore. They don’t care and their system is trash 

[DarthEbriate]

It's one thing to get beat and have Dahlin playing through an injury. But for a couple weeks now and for months in home games...

It's quite another thing to look like....

Wow, did losing to Washington take the starch out of this team.  They stopped believing.

This team hasn’t been right since Carolina and Calgary slapped them around in early February

Bob Denver's best work was on Dobie Gillis.

I would rather believe it is the lack of support by the Front Office not wanting to risk losing precious Picks and prospects, or deviating from the 'Future' plan by showing faith in this group that they could make the playoffs with a bit of help.....

Instead of rewarding this group with getting further then people believed and being in a position to make the playoffs, they are told the future is more important and that just making the playoffs isn't going to help their development.....

Why is the crowd utterly embarrassing?

What'd he do, blow his stank breath on a Bruin?

VO is being used as a scapegoat 

VO sucks at every other aspect of the game. Can a marginal team with so many holes really afford to keep a player who only contributes in a limited role and who often goes long stretches without even doing that? I think it’s a fair question. 

Regarding the scapegoating, I can’t agree at all given those glaring holes elsewhere that I mentioned previously. 

What do 30 goal scorers usually fetch in a trade? Can VO honestly get us the going rate?

Teams have learned how to corral the high flying offense. With no defense it’s a easy game to play

Because they are mostly in Black and Gold with B's?

Lol I’ll poll the crowd. 
 

it was after his dribble pass to Dahlin that caused us to lose possession on the pp

Can't blame CROWD if your NOT there
