ClusterChuck Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 I finally got a decent stream in time to see VGK's 1st PP and then the fireworks So great to see different guys score any given night. Foligno's a freakin sniper !! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmptyShelf Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 6 minutes ago, lynxrattle said: Our special teams suck, 5 vs 5 is great at best, 3 against 3 is great. Goalies good enough. What does that tell us about the coaching? It either tells us that our set-up, execution, or personnel mix is f-ed up. As I watch, one thing that jumps out is our quality of shots. We throw pucks around and do not spread them out and get them out of position. We are too easy to defend, and then take predictable shots. There is enough talent between the Kap, Fiala, and the Top Ds (no, not the limp wrister) to look so brutal. It's just not drawn up right to be successful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We also look like we are 'pressing and guessing.' If we do have a plan or design, it is clearly flawed. We don't have set plays either, to set up our best snipers. I have seen better Pee Wee (like that JimTown, PW coach), PPs than the Wild for a half dozen years now. It is really just dismal to watch when we get the man advantage, I would rather decline it and play 5:5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep.. it's the proverbial square peg into round hole design. Brad Childress could draw up a better PP than ours. We're sure fun to watch at even strength, though. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmptyShelf Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Not sure Johannson is going to have any spot on this team when he gets back (unless they want to sit CLs butt buddy, Parise)....Just my $.02.
