Description
Theyve been following this philosophy for 5 years now. The "new NHL", grit is different, theirs no more physicality. Theyre in dead last, theyre the laughing stock of the league, the team has no heart no culture. They obviously dont have a clear understanding of how the "New NHL" works, so why lecture youre pissed off fans and media on it.

They are in dead last because they have a horrible coach, an average goalie who is always hurt, a blind goalie with a horrible system, and their star players have an extremely low shooting percentage. Adding horrible players like Bennet and Beagle wouldn't change a thing.

It's the chicken and the egg story. What creates a good culture? Does good culture create winning, or does winning create good culture?

Kinda reminds of a tee shirt a fellow worker wore to work one day. "The beatings will stop when morale improves"

Same excuse as last year, same excuse 2 years ago, same excuse 3 years ago, same excuse 4 years ago. Tim Murray doesnt know what hes doing Bylsma sucks fire them, team plummets to the bottom of the league, dont worry Botterill and Housley are fine, a year later, Housleys terrible he needs to go, Lehner is terrible he needs to go, we need goaltending we need more skill players - sign Hall - suprise suprise bottom of the standings again, it.. its just their percentages now, just trust the plan bro. Its not working, it wont work, and all of the successful teams have it figured out. Its not just goaltending its not the 4th coach in 6 years's fault. Krueger is so highly thought of, we landed the biggest free agent available specifically because of Krueger. In fact the only thing consistent over the last 5 years is their flawed ideology that they can just fill the bottom 6 with small role guys and failed top 6 forwards, and it repeatedly fails

personally I think the answer to all of your problems is sending Eichel to NJ for Subban
