    To the bolded, only a couple of these guys are slow.  That's 1 thing Adams has been good at doing - increasing team speed.

    Fair, they’ve certainly improved upon a couple of years ago and part of it might be that I’ve watched a lot of Edmonton games this year and…well…it’s like they’re playing a different sport. 
     

    But, be it speed, or poor puck handling, they just don’t seem to get many of those opportunities. It seemed like the entire 3rd period was watching the puck get pushed down into the Rangers zone then one of our guys cough it up or they just never gained possession. It’s brutal.

    Welcome to the board!

    Thank you! Glad I found the place. Not many people to talk hockey with in corn country. 😆

    Let us face facts: this team is going to have problems on the road.  They will get unfavourable defence and line match-ups which will take more out of them as the game goes on.  There is not enough talent to overcome that too often.

    Last sentence is the root cause here. This is one of the least talented rosters in the league (probably bottom 3) and that’s with Mitts and VO. They’ve managed to win some games because they play hard, are scrappy and have probably snuck up on a couple of teams. Watching this team trying to set up anything on offense is painful. And how many breakaway opportunities have we had this season? Very few because they are slllllooooooowwwwww and any breakaways get snuffed out before they get anywhere near the net. I just hope they don’t rush the kids in Rochester. Let them cook down there and maybe call them up sometime in the last month. Hopefully guys like Peterka, Quinn and Krebs (not to mention Tuch) inject some needed speed and offensive skill.
