Now there is a video of Jackson and Jonesy ripping the team after tonight's game. Seems the camera was rolling and they didn't know it. Ripping Voracek, Weise, Saying Fletcher needs to do something......This is gonna blow up...

To be fair I think they're saying exactly what 99% of the people following this team are thinking. It's a (frank)ing circus.

Oh they are dead on. By blow up I mean I expect to hear some sort of sanctions against the broadcast duo or whoever leaked the video. Can you imagine if this happened when Hexy was running the show?

(I know this is sarcasm BUT)

About 14% of his points came in one game...

- bulet13

Also his defense has cost how many games...

I love the idiots that say my exact post when people say trade Jake. They forget how many games he's given away because he gets points. There's more to hockey than pretty passes and goals. I'd gladly take a guy who gets 15 less points but knows what to do after a turnover.

It's supposedly a European feed. Something about they don't get commercials.

Maybe this is what these prima donnas need. Between the post game show and this video, their egos are going to get an enema they deserve.

Love it. They are right, Voracheck and Weiss are both quitting on the play... a lot of players are.

You also seem to ignore the other player who did the same thing. Again no one is saying Giroux isnt guilty of bad plays. NHL players are still human. The fact which you seem to ignore when its convienient for you is Simmonds isnt doing anything. What is Simmonds doing to get the team on the right track? Nothing. Giroux at least has a PPG which helps the team more than it hurts the team. Simmonds is guilty of the SAME lazy plays and he is not chipping in offensively. He is by far the worst player when it comes to puck management as well.

This has NOTHING to do with Giroux. Simmonds has people frustrated because he is easily the worst player on the ice and that says a lot with guys like Weal, Folin, AMac and Weise out there.

That's false, all through the season I have called out each and every player who I thought has made a mistake leading to goals, including Simmonds.

It's also false that Simmonds is easily the worst player on the ice.

i didn't see one person blame Simmonds for the loss tonight. so it's asinine and absurd to call out terrible play when you see it unless it's Giroux? what are you saying to me right now? if you don't want to talk about individual play then you don't have to put your opinion in. it's easy to say "the whole team is a mess right now" then blame people for scapegoating players. it's easy to nitpick Giroux who at least is doing something out there most nights but ignore guys like Simmonds and JVR who looks completely lost most nights aside from the occasional net front goal in a losing effort.

After each and every loss, Simmonds is the player who gets the most criticism and the most blame. So if you're not seeing that, you're just not looking. I did not nitpick Giroux. I discussed Giroux in response to another poster who brought him up.
