You don't have to win every game...

But can you at least try?!?!?!

PGA Tour players have so much more mental toughness than this team. As a former professional golfer, I can tell you it’s a physical grind. I always laugh when people say things like “this is a man’s game” as if the guys on tour aren’t men. If you can’t come close to shooting par, you shouldn’t be talking like this. You have no idea the level of fitness needed to compete on tour these days. 

I'm too busy day drinking when golfing... I'm also terrible. One par per 18 and I'm happy 😂😂

Live look at the NYI PK.

Maybe I need to start drinking when I play golf 🙃

Auston Matthews has missed almost half the Leafs games this year.  They’re still 13-7-2. 
 

What are we even thinking here this group can’t compete in this division.

That’s the right approach imo. Much more fun.

Adams just needs to keep running back the same core. Surely a few minor tweaks to the bottom 6 will solve everything 

[DarthEbriate]

It really goes back to what you have to do to make the playoffs --- because they're not a juggernaut, they've got to have a cumulative winning record against the primary competition and any bottom feeders (MTL) for those wildcard spots. They cannot no-show these games.

OTT, DET, MTL, NYI, PIT, PHI

So far this season: 2-5-1 and losing by two tonight.

 

Edit: My list forgot to include CBJ, but the record did include them.

Absolutely.....to me it defines a team that isn't playoff caliber

Absolutely pathetic.

I do wonder how much longer before Adams pulls the trigger. No playoffs this year and he has to be gone. Just another Pegula experiment gone bad. Will he tru to save his job? I do wonder.

[North Buffalo]

My wife's fault she was crabbing at me during both goals... always happens when I am sitting down enjoying a game.

Not with this roster. And never will without changes to the core.

[Gatorman0519]

Game after game after game… trouble scoring goals. Most of the games are … somewhat boring.

He has to make some moves. He’s definitely gone if no playoffs.

It doesn’t help that Quinn and Cozens shoot everything into the goalie’s chest 99% of the time.

He can’t.  
 

He's not going to be in charge in April.  
 

Any decisions that will impact this team long term can no longer be made by him.  
 

He can tweak.  But he cannot be allowed to do anything significant.  
 

I've seen enough.  They had a chance this week to show they’ve turned a corner and are going to get 1 out of 6 points.  

[Wyldnwoody44]

We miss the net and then 3 minutes in our zone.

I'm still skeptical his job is actually at risk.  Heck, even if there is a change, he may end up getting a promotion

By contrast......Whenever I start complaining about a particular player, he scores......So who should I complain about? 

[Second Line Center]

I think Lindy is here to be GM after Adams is canned in mid January.  Lindy will have had 8 plus months to evaluate.  
 

Appert will become interim coach.

Well, he's earned it, he's had chapped lips and sore jaw muscles for the last few years... From sucking the farts out of pegulas tookus
