I hope he gets a win>

Positive thoughts people!

60 minutes of solid effort is all I ask.

by caniacgirl on Oct 31, 2009 12:44 PM EDT reply actions  

True. Would be a first this season.

Member of Canes Country and the Cat Scratch Reader

by Ivan459 on Oct 31, 2009 12:44 PM EDT up reply actions  

That’s a lot to ask from this squad…

by Andrea's evil twin on Oct 31, 2009 12:47 PM EDT up reply actions  

I believe that high expectations breed high effort.

And yes 45 minutes may be more realistic.

by caniacgirl on Oct 31, 2009 12:48 PM EDT up reply actions  

I don’t think they have given more than 20 min. The one game we looked really good in this season was against Florida (who were Zombies from there trip over the ocean).

by canescup on Oct 31, 2009 12:50 PM EDT up reply actions  

Sad thing is we are tied with them for last in the division.

Member of Canes Country and the Cat Scratch Reader

by Ivan459 on Oct 31, 2009 12:51 PM EDT up reply actions  

Hence the hope of 45 minutes being more realistic.

I would probably put season effort at around 30 or so.

by caniacgirl on Oct 31, 2009 12:56 PM EDT up reply actions  

I’ll take 45 mins of effort over a measly 20…

Something has to give. Someone will be fired and someone will be traded. Why not trade for youth, $ savings, and the future, while allowing our Rats to come on up and get NHL experience. If you are going to suck, at least be rebuilding. If this continues, we will be looking at two to three seasons of pain. MAKE IT HAPPEN NOW!!! So much for Ray Whitney day.

Dude, I think you are barking up the wrong tree. You obviously don’t like Mo. Fine, but I don’t think the Ebola virus could so sweepingly castrate a team. While trying to avoid the “I told you so”, JR boned this one. He finnaggled what looked like a great roster, on paper. JR did a good job, on paper, of proving a bumble bee can’t fly. He just got stung by one. The success this has had during the Cup run and the limited bits since have come from trying basic Red Wing hockey. Fast, puck control oriented, goal production back by great net minding. The problem has always been, we just never had killer scoring “when we needed it”. We are shy on guys that can just turn a game around. Then I noticed last year our Mojo guys were slowing down and getting old, Williams takes a powder. Then, instead of bringing in youth and regaing some speed, JR does his wonderful roster build.

  I think Sutter proved the fact in everybody’s face with a big fuck you goal today. That kid has earned his spot, how many others can say that? On a day when there was no speed, no veteran savvy, not even a dead body in net, Sutter shows up.

 I think Mo had his hand forced, got stuck with a bunch guys that think they are too good to get fired and had a mangement that until now at least has proven that at every turn.

  I agree Mo is culpable, but, not to the point of a change, aprticularly when we already have a lzy shitbag of a coach as a leech on the pay roll. No JR, got burned by his player choices, now he has to solve it. Mo needs to keep the ship from sinking farther and deal with whatever JR does.

 I think Walker is the only “Old Guy” earning his check. If Binky comes back and Staal explodes, I will officialy become a Staal hater and want a trade, BAD. I think Ruu coming back and when we get Timmy back, we will have a fighting chance at working out some lines. Too many pieces missing and no effort from many of the guys doesn’t equall giving Mo the ax. I could put 6 or so players on the chopping block with a clear conscience way before Mo.

  The ideology of Rod as a Hall of Fameer has gotta go and so does Rod. He can no longer lead this team if they are to move on. He represents all that is going wrong and he has gotten to the pointy he can’t do anything about it.

  I think the C should be a game time descision for the next few months, see who p[onies up. Get rid of Yelle and anyone else that can’t or won’t play like thier life depends on it. I would also be rotating some of the kids through at the NHL level to see who can play in a pinch. A few trades for salary dumps and getting players back will undoubtedly leave a hole in the roster. Finding out now who works together and weho has a shot at playing is a good idea. In all honesty, they can’t put us any farther behind they we are digging ourselves into now.

 I preached it last year and visited it this last summer. This team is Eric Staals if he’s got what it takes. The time is now, the time of Rod is over. This team is about as low as you can go and for once PK ponied up with a good salary.

Wow. jesus. it's getting worse and worse

i have no clue what to say. we just keep losing by more and more. with the shoot outs, it was okay. but we’re getting creamed. absolutely slammed. i don’t know if maurice has too much bulk and age on the ice rather than youth and speed but jesus christ…it’s freaking awful out there. get some guys down from albany maybe? i too think maurice will last until at least next season and they will do a major overhaul of who is on the team and retire some of the ones who are just not keeping up anymore. brindamour i think is gonna have to go. this might be jim rutherford’s fault. the best teams have the speedsters and young guys. we look like an elderly home out there. bad bad bad.
