Nylander and Reilly aren't massively overpaid. The other 3 are though, and they will never win as long as they all remain on the team.

Which is awesome!

New'ish coach.

Somehow Green is the 7th longest tenured coach in the NHL right now.

Jeff Blashill at .446 win percentage is lower than Green's.

60% of their entire cap is dedicated to 5 players.

Nylander, tavares, marner, matthews and Reilly.

It’d be interesting to see what the top five cap hits on each team represents in terms of percentage of their total cap.

I haven't watched for a while....man....EP was SO BAD. This is the worst game I've ever see him play.

Elias isn’t an NHL player right now. He should be in the press box. This team is so (frank)ed

The Lotto Line combined has one more goal than Milan Lucic. I have not hit panic mode but I am frustrated that we have to watch pretty crappy play until these guys get their act together if they do at all?

I would usually say wait and see but after last year you have to ask is this what the team really is?

There has been one obvious constant and that is the coaching and the style of play stinks. I will leave it at that for now.

Injuries mounting won't help. Highmore is out now and Petan recalled. I like Bailey and Petan but they aren't full time NHL'ers (yet)?
Richardinson out really sucks. Big body 3LC and we need that. 4th line can be what it is right now to keep the cap strappers happy lol

I have to admit that apathy has set in for me with this team. Fortunately there are quite of few options out there right now with regards to sports.

I am going to still watch but expectations are dwindling from hopeful to comical. I like some of these young guys and the same time questioning some of the core players.

I like Bailey and hope he finally sticks but I get as excited about Petan as I do for Highmore . Both players are excellent for a team trying to get high draft picks.

As of now, been told Danila Klimovich has been told to get a place in Abbotsford, he will not be going to junior.

I'm at loathe to give these guys an excuse, however there are a lot of new faces.

The reality is this team has had 8 years to ice a competitive team, that's plenty of time.
