Mrazek usually plays well against Edmonton. Get him his start to stay semi fresh.

Jonathan Ericsson was deemed a game-time decision due to a "tweak" suffered lifting his infant child out of its crib.

Now 2-4 vs another team coming off a back to back in our barn. Mick just said we "need more energy" to me that means less #8 and less #40. Let's see what happens. Go Wings !!

Lines on My Face - a little Frampton, a little vermouth. Takes the edge off. 2-5 shit. 9 goals combined for our C and A's. Almost everyone minus but Green and (cough) Erickson. Need another tune ..........

Pretty sad. Tatar and AA -4, Larkin -3.
We played uninspired hockey, no intensity and were a turnover machine.
We looked pretty bad again.

one word to describe this game...
HORRIBLE !
From all the players really.
Worst was Howard closely followed by Mantha. Howard was bad, didnt look like he wanted to play tonight, as a mather of fact Mrazek should have started this game but you know that Blashill décisions will never stops to amaze us.
And sportsnet said Howard gave a "look" at Blashill when he got yanked. I dont believe that, Howard didnt deserve to stay in that game. It was the move to make
Mantha now...wow what lazy one, what a display of wasted talent. Floating around like its a routine scrimmage...
Same for AA..with a little less icetime, if he doesnt have the puck on his stick don't expect him to make any effort to get it.
I Wonder if the kids are tuning out the coach ? Maybe they have enough of this coaching ?
And the 11-7 thing is over. Blashill is not good enough to manage 11 forwards. It gives him the perfect opportunity to play the vets more often than the kids....
It might be the reason why the kids look so bad recently...
Pathetic game to watch. We were so good not too long ago, its like playing parcheesi and you land on the snake, you know you are going down !!

I’m fine with 11-7 thing just as long as only 9-6 play two stacked lines and a checkin line and win with offense since our defense stinks 😷 Put Mantha-Larkin-Athanasiou back together . |

....and Blashill calls out Mantha for his performance the last 2 games. This coach is a flat out asshole. So many players floating and underachieving yet he calls out Mantha. No Zetterberg or Kronwall who have been stinking the last week or so
