Is it too early to be unimpressed by nylander?
- Shadman306

Never too early.

Definitely.

But Puck Fhil. I don't know why, I just never liked him.


I can't find the video, but a few years ago at the US Open, Phil was pitching uphill and 3 times he didn't hit it hard enough and the ball rolled right back down the hill almost to where he was standing. 3 times! It's like I was watching Tin Cup.

I hated phil when he first came on tour

got very humble over the recent 10 to 12 years

I'm gonna be a grampa in next couple hours

You know what I've noticed passing is much better now than it was at the start of the year.

Still not where it needs to be, but you see improvement.

Goaltending helped boost wins with boosted confidence . Which made chemistry . Didn't have to change things up every period to find something that worked .

Im gonna say this right now. This is not the right team or conditions for a Nylander type of player. He needs to be put in an ideal situation in order to be effective. Not the right type of insulation here for him at this time

Good point and I see it too. Shot placement needs to be better. Shooting it at the goalie for the sake of taking a shot needs to be addressed . Pick some holes for christ sakes .

Better goaltending than we had will make wins ..etc. etc .. snowball thing .
how upsetting is it to your forwards when you can't count on your goalie .

Wow, both Mittlestadt and Okposo worked REALLY hard on that goal.

Can Phil challenge for goalie interference?

Goaltending is not the reason we have zero chemistry as a team. We have bad players that dont mesh. The make up of this team is flawed.

See vegas . Winning builds chemistry . and familiarity of the lines . instead of changing them every period . Winning more boosts morale and confidence . imo and it's a better one than the team sucks .

When our forwards and defensmen cant make a simple pass I dont go "Wow they would have made that pass if our goaltending was better"

that is what im talking about, dude

Dude thats a fine point. I was disagreeing that goaltending has anything to do with making a simple pass with your line mates/ defensemen. They cant get anything going. THE MAKE UP OF THIS TEAM IS FLAWED

Well we do have questionable players . Some will be replaced and so will the goaltender. for next season. Sooooo either one of our opinions could be thrown out .

You could def blame it on coaching or you could just chalk it up as the wrong group of players. Either way this team has zero chemistry. They have had issues with passing the puck for years which to me blows my mind
