Even Brian duff looks disappointed, this is a rough one.

I really wasn’t expecting to want to turn the game off tonight, maybe the third will make up for it

They are so boring.

This has to be on coaching, right?

Zone exits are better.
Entries generally suck.
Hopefully more time together will help...but not a fan of the dump and chase BS

Ugh. Tell me about it. I thought it would be with Boston coming off a big loss.

They are so freaking boring.

You cannot get shut out in your home opener.

You just cant.

I mean, half the roster is new and this is their first game together. They look out of synch and are trying to be too perfect. Usually not a great combo.

Agreed. Playing hot potato early on,seemed they were trying to play fast, like too fast but not real great at it yet.

I’m in central time now, went in and left work a little early today just so I didn’t miss anything. Should have stayed at work

We haven’t had one decent looking offensive play aside from that erod chance. Other than that it’s been awful

Good thing Housley gave the lines more than 5 minutes to gel.

Passes are in the skates most of the time, if they’re on the tape they still loose possession dmen can’t cover anyone in the zone and the forwards can’t gain the zone with the puck. Housley isn’t perfect but holy crap these are nhl players and they can’t even pass the puck.

They’re also trying to make most passes while standing still and trying to pass it to someone else standing still. There’s just 0 fluidity in their game. Move your feet. Stop being reactive to what’s going on and make things happen.
