This organization took a gamble in the way they handled the off-season. I wasn’t a fan. For a while, though, I thought I was wrong. Now, however, it seems as though my fears were warranted.
I don’t want to overreact but, with this current extended losing streak taken into account and the general vibe this team seems to give off, I think this is the season in which the wheels fall off. I don’t think they are making the playoffs this year, and who knows what happens after that.
I'm sorry if this is a breach of protocol, but I want to use this opportunity to pitch a book idea. I'll gladly ghostwrite this for the applicable parties:
The Ostrich Diet: Bury Your Head in the Sand and Lose Weight by Mike Sullivan & Ron Hextall

Frustrating is an understatement with this team. I've got nothing else to say.
Crosby's backcheck on that first goal was terrible
I am sick of mike Sullivan and this team
Hockey season doesn't start until football season is over.
As you could probably tell from my question the other day, I really agree with this assessment of where the team is and why calling guys up is necessary to give it a jolt.
At least the core is signed for years to come. Yipee!
Old and tired?
Team sucks
Daily Shot Yesterday: Never count this team out!
Daily Shot Today: Blow it all up!
Therrien was fired for less…so was Mike Johnston.
They clearly need to extend Sullivan's contract and bring in more aged grizzled vets.
I would do this for Arizona:
Zucker – Crosby – Rakell
Guentzel – Malkin – Rust
McGinn – Carter – Kapanen
Poehling – Blueger – Puustinen
Freshness and energy. Just say the roster is to old. Why is everyone afraid to say it?
I really think this is a problem with the Defense…and include the goal tending as part of the D at this point. Gotta see how it goes when Letang, Petry, and Jarry return. I think Ty Smith deserves a place on the roster…he's certainly is better than Dumo (is less of a liability and has a much bigger upside)..plus he'll continue to get better. Dumo will continue to get worse. You just cant keep putting Dumo out there..that's 20+ minutes of playing shorthanded…it's devastating.
Agreed. Everything changed the year Jake Guentzel showed up. Shake things up a little Ron!
Commentators last night noted that the Pens have NOT been crashing the net lately and that is exactly what Vegas did all night. We let them sit in the crease in front of DeSmith without much difficulty. It seemed that the D Man benched and up in the press box last night – Matt Friedman – at least tried to clean out the crease when he was allowed to play.
Sully has no answers…so sad.
