A great interview honestly, worth a listen. He ripped them.
“I gotta find answers for this team” he said at the end. At least we know he’s not trying to duck responsibility or hide behind anything. This is gonna be a bumpy ride hahaha.
We are missing kuzmenko’s positive vibes
Team is collectively tired and mentally going through a dark time. Im glad Tocchet is holding everyone accountable. I think with some rest and being at home for a 9 game home stand will get them back in gear.
I am honestly worried though, our top guys except Miller and showing no heart. Petey looks stale and so does Boeser. Our PP looks unbelievably bad and the coaches need to really switch it up. Ive never like Mike Yeo since he got here for his lack of adaptability.
I am not sure of this slump is showing our true form, because every team goes through this. Its if you get out of it stronger, that matters.
Honestly, alarm bells are ringing for me, but i still believe we can turn this around. Of we ramp it up at the right time we’ll be fine.
Here’s hoping! Stay strong, boys!
Tocchet is a smart guy and I think he’ll push the right buttons. But at the end of the day, the players need to respond. If you can’t score, shoot more. If you can’t make a play then make a hit. If you can’t do that, then forecheck hard. Everyone can forecheck. And if you can’t, get off the team!
Work ethic is always the beginning for every turnaround.
Playoff Hockey is likely Saturday night. Better strap in.
The power play doesn’t need tinkering, it needs someone to yell at them to get the pucks on net and create chances and movement by creating chaos. At this point I don’t expect it to get better, when you decide to put Petey as the net front I don’t know what the hell you’re doing.
Are we done now? Are we now ok admitting that heartless efforts are unacceptable? I don’t give two fucks where we are in the standings. It’s been multiple games in a row now where some of our best players have been completely invisible, Brock and Petey are doing absolutely nothing to impact the game. Zero. Our pp is trash, our defensive backbone is trash and it feels like we are slowly deteriorating into the Canucks of the last 10 years.
