Pretty hard to fathom that a team with that defense is doing just as badly as the Leafs.

Gio is having an off season and the fans here in Calgary have soured on the WAY overpaid Dougie Hamilton already.

Forwards are young, and even the vets on the team aren't the most consistent offensive producers. They've also had some awful goaltending this season.

I think coaching really only has a noticeable effect on a team if you're either a top-3 coach in the league or a bottom-3 coach in the league. Hartley falls into one of those categories and it ain't the first one.

That, too, but they have one of the worst GA/G despite having one of the better SA/G - that points a pretty direct line to poor goaltending. Ramo has been below average, while Hiller has been awful. If they had average+ goaltending, they'd be in the playoff mix.
 
I guess it's going to change tonight's lineup a bit...
Hunwick - Rielly
Gardiner - Polak
Marincin - Corrado
 
I wonder how much the Phaneuf trade is going to rattle the rest of the team. A loss tonight wouldn't surprise me too much.

I'd like to see Corrado with Gardiner, especially since Marincin-Polak has had pretty good underlying numbers.

That'd work for me. Corrado is only seeing <15 minutes so far. I think they'll ramp him up a bit now.

a loss ANY night wouldn't surprise me....
 
TSNBobMcKenzie: As @RealKyper suggested, Gaudreau, Monahan, Bouma likely out of CGY lineup tonight for disciplinary reasons. May be playing 11 F and 7 D.

TSNBobMcKenzie: Monahan, Gaudreau and Bouma obviously have run afoul of coach Bob Hartley for some reason. We'll see at game time what fallout is or isn't.

"We can't let these guys out-tank us! We gotta suspend our best players for . . . reasons!"
 
CarltonTheBear said:
Ah man, they better trade Gaudreau and Monahan. Can't have those types of players.

Time to do them a huge favour. Bernier, Cowen and Ottawa's 2nd for them? Seems fair.
