Sometimes this team looks like it isn't playing with any sense of urgency, let alone fire, and that's probably a matter of coaching. Then add to that one really bad penalty from Kevin Fiala each game, one egregious defensive lapse from Sean Durzi every game, the ongoing problem at #2LhD, and Drew Doughty frequently trying to do too much (as on the game-ending mistake he made last night), and you have the recipe for the barely-over-0.500 record we have right now. We're projecting out to 90 points, and that isn't going to get us into the playoffs. I think that Rob Blake is going to HAVE to do something, and I don't think it's change coaches. Even if it's a prophylactic step like acquiring Joel Edmondson or a similar veteran defenseman, he's got to take some action.
