Lucas Raymond, Mo Seider, Derek Lalonde Post Game | Oct. 26 @ BUF
Lucas Raymond, Mo Seider and Head Coach Derek Lalonde speak with the media following the Red Wings vs Sabres matchup on Saturday October 26, 2024 at KeyBank Center.
Disappointing to be outshot yet again. Feels like the chemistry still isn't quite right. Alot of missed passes and missed assignments. Kasper continues to impress. Bounces went their way, not ours. LGRW 🐙 🏒 🤘
More and more I can't defend Lalonde when he continues to say he liked the way they played. Yeah, the last 40 minutes today were better than the first 20. They still spent WAY too little time in the offensive zone. I used to think he just said this stuff to placate the media, but now it really does look like his standards for good hockey are too low.
I've defended the coaching saying things like "we've been incrementally better year over year"; however, these schemes/plays aren't working and it's up to the coaches to review tapes, revise, and find something that will. It don't look so good for them – especially the entirety of special teams. The defensive structure sucks. You can't play defensive structures without pressure up top or run a collapsing zone on the PK in the NHL (with consistent results) and what's worse – RUN IT 5v5 to achieve what!? Goals against?! Underlying numbers reflecting potentiality is for idiots when you're not affecting/replacing your reality with better plays/structure. The eye/reality test is very hard to stomach game to game because this ain't the roster to achieve that. I'm really starting to buy into the need new coaches… Even the wins this season we have played like shit – and no one can defend against that claim. I'm not thinking it's the players collectively, y'know?
Fire Newsy! 👏👏👏👏👏 Fire Newsy! 👏👏👏👏👏 Fire Newsy! 👏👏👏👏👏 I liked our last 40 minutes 🤓 stfu 🤬. Any dman not named seider or edvinsson is compete dog 💩 . Our roster has a top 3 and a bottom 9 because compher, Kane, and tarasenko don’t do shit. Raymond has 1 goal and leads our team in points. Once he starts scoring at a very much due higher rate, he’s gonna be a 75-80+ point player for sure. Larkin had an off shooting night and you could tell by his frustration so I’m not too worried about him because of a bad game shooting wise for him. Debrincat man… another empty net to tap the puck in and shot it over the net 😅. Props to our goalies who were a questionable concern at the beginning of the season because they have sure proved me wrong with how great they’ve look outside the odd moment that all goalies have. Still lots of season left so I’m not giving up LGRW!
The overpaid veteran free agency signings are bringing this team down. Compher and Copp suck. Petry and Holl suck. Gustavson sucks. Why is Petry getting 20 minutes a game? Why is Johansson not getting any playing time? Lalonde line and pairings are an absolute joke.
I don’t understand why lalonde preaches defense but nobody goes out and lays a hit at the blue line. They need to stop giving the opposition so much speed on the entry. Someone needs to lay someone out in the first minute and set the tone. If they played like they did in the 3rd period against the devils every game they would win.
And stop the fucking dump and chase Every. Fucking. Breakout. It’s simple asf.
We are in year 6 of the Yzerman era and this team still have the same issues that haven’t been fixed. It’s ridiculous. The personnel we have on the D is atrocious. The style of play stinks. Lalonde is playing this cat and mouse game every game. I can talk about so many more issues but I’ve talked about it too many times.

Flat out losing defensive zone face offs don’t help
Fire lalonde
Dump and chase and perimeter pk style no pressure defense not working.
The bottom four are trash. Unfortunately you can't play mo and simon for 60 minutes
Bring in Gallant
Garbage Patch curse strikes again.

Division games aren’t the time to have bad bounces all game. Heart is there though
Dump, chase, lose possession, repeat.
Fight in corner, ring around board, turnover to other team, repeat.
PP… Defense starts out of zone, drop pass back, try one man with speed to break in, lose possession, repeat. Ugh.
Down 4-3 and only 4 shots in the third? Lol this team is trash. Get rid of all the d men except seider and edvinsson.

Miracle that we even have a win this season.
This team is always getting outshot by A LOT!
Lalonde’s system isn’t working. Please bring in a coach that actually has experience.

Did someone say Quenneville? 🤣👀

Dear, Newsy
I hate your systems and I no longer believe you're our guy. This team can't play defense so maybe let them try to score, eh?
