I didn’t like Hart’s game last night at all and many around here hesitate to blame Hart for anything. Like the “miscommunication” play behind the net between Provorov and Hart. I mean, that was all Hart. That’s a routine play behind the net where the goalie normally settles the puck down and leaves it in one spot but Hart tried to pass it to Provorov when he didn’t have to and it was right in Provorov’s skates. We all know Provorov is gone and deservingly so but common guys..

I did not have the pleasure of watching. Four more to go.

I don't think the players are really focused at this point

I only saw the second half of the game and didn't actually watch all of that since it seems as if the team has checked out as a whole, but is Tippett hurt? I thought he looked awful last night. Looked like he could barely keep up with the play and was about 5 steps behind the play all night. What happened to the dynamic player from a month ago? Is the bloom coming off the rose.

Focus on larger samples.

Provorov is a Russian AMac. What a stiff.

He looks tired to me and I've felt that way for awhile now.

Not sure if Provy is not talking to Hart there, he clearly had no idea he was there. End this season , Provy can’t get out of town quick enough

That’s a routine play. That’s all on Hart. I’m bold is speculation and wanting to place to blame on the other guy.

Be careful what you wish for. I won't be upset if Provy is traded but i am not going to push all the D core problems on him either. I think he has been beaten down by playing for bad teams over the years.
If the flyers can get a very good return i can understand making that deal.
If i had my choice i would want to see Risto gone. I don't hste the guy but i just don't think he fits into the tram makeup.

Hart has to be more aware, but you should be talking to your goaltender

It’s been a number of things for Provys decline here but some of the stuff is all on him and it looks like it’s best for both parties to move on. Obviously you hang on if the return isn’t there. I don’t like even brining up guys like Hayes, Risto, Sanheim. Those contracts are brutal, no sense in even discussing

I guess. It’s a fast game. You might be right but I put that goal on Hart.

Amen.

Was this also Hart's fault?

No other "#1 dman" makes as many unforced gaffes as Provy does.

That # 7 pick gonna save the franchise.
Imagine sitting through year after year of this bullpoop and not adding a single franchise player through the draft.

I don't think he's tired. I think he's disgusted and unhappy. He wants out.

As long as it goes better than our last #7 pick.

The good news is a regulation loss on Saturday and 7th overall is wrapped up.

As long as it goes better than our last #7 pick.

Ha! He’s so bad.

They had a shot at any of Rantanen, Meier, Barzal, Connor, Chabot and Werenski. But they came away with the gaffe factory lol.

Depending on how players drop, at #7 I am in Cristall camp.
