Drew a Penalty Posted November 24, 2022 Share Posted November 24, 2022 There's no significant change that can come from anything short of a coaching change, it's been obvious for weeks. Talent only gets you so far and this team simply can't win by banking on a number of individual efforts and the odd powerplay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted November 24, 2022 Share Posted November 24, 2022 Normally a coach is owed a trade before he gets the axe. Let's see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt Panarin or Trouba would be moved. I dont think im ok with anyone else being moved. No one significant anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sod16 Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 The more established guys have no trades. The guys on entry levels or first contracts after entry levels cannot be traded for more established players due to cap considerations. A like for like trade of LaF, Kakko, Miller etc. would bring a similar, somewhat underperforming player. Drury's hands are pretty well tied in terms of a significant trade to shake things up. This is why coaches don't last long in the NHL these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you're not necessarily advocating that, but "making a trade" feels like the ultimate lipstick on a pig move here. Particularly given the extremely limited options available to them. Even if they did have the wiggle room to make a significant move, this team isn't a trade away imo. It's a violent shake-up away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trading Gauthier isn't going to make a dent, I agree. Trading a kid or a Kreider might send a message to the room and the coach that jobs are on the line.

Br4d Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Break up Kreider and Zibanejad. You almost have to do this at this point because it sets a lot of wheels in motion elsewhere in the lineup. Why are Panarin and Zibanejad not playing together given their evident synergy on the PP? Shouldn't the most valuable young prospect on the team get a shot with the two best players on the roster? That would be Panarin - Zibanejad - Lafreniere with Laffy getting compensated in a big way for having to move to RW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valriera Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Has to be now, that third period is all the evidence you need that the coach has lost the room. We didn’t even make them work that hard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We didn’t even make them work that hard Sadly think this is the case. Spent the 3rd period watching EDM and not bothering to attack. At a complete loss why after the 2nd EDM he didn't call a timeout. Try SOMETHING, for feck's sake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
