Quinn = Moron on Kakko

[kreidertime]

He dumbass. You have a sublime talent in this kid. Stop screwing up by putting that schmuck Buchnevich on the first line and first PP unit. It's not rocket science there coach. Get an fn clue and develop the kid.

Also, stop putting Andersson with rejects you moron. He's been one of the best forwards since day one this year. He setup the entire first goal. First he made a slick play on the boards to get the puck deep then prevented the goalie from controlling the rebound in front of the net. Yet, you continue to screw him over.

Buchnevich has not had a good start to the year. If he doesn't start putting Kakko there by Sunday then I'm going to start wondering about him. Andersson's been pretty good so far but Howden has struggled out of the gate. Hajek too. I saw that Kravtsov may elect to go back to Russia for the year.

You put Kakko on the 1st line, that is fine. The rest of your lines suck.

Kreider is totally invisible. Fast, Howden, McKegg, Smith, Lemieux, Haley, Strome, Andersson, Buch. There is not nearly enough good talent in there to fill out 9 forward spots. That list is littered with 4th line players after Kreider, Buch, and maybe Andersson and Howden (who are maybe fringe 3rd line guys).

I say again, unless Kravstov and/or Chytil get it together and get up here we'll have huge depth scoring issues.

As for the D, it is young with ADA, Fox, and Hajek. There will be growing pains. I would bring Lindgren up and let him play rotating Fox and Hajek.

Overall this team is still 1 year, and maybe 2 years away. That's the way it is. Up and down this year. Maybe battle for a WC spot on the fringe, and then hope for more next season. I think that's reality.

So far some of the moves that quinn has been making are head shaking including the IT of kakko, strome as the 2c, smith in the lineup period and anderrsson who has been good since camp being buried. Don't know quite what to make of ruff still being here as our defense has sucked since he got here with no improvement. If were going to be somewhere around a .500 team guys like lindgren, chitin and kravstov should be up here gaining experience. If gorton and jd think were a playoff team then they need to have a conversation with the coach about his personnel deployment. This isn't college anymore. And lemieux sitting yesterday against the devils was a joke.

 

[kreidertime]

If you put Kakko on the first line, you have a much better chance of the rest of your lines not sucking. That's because dumbasses Kreider and Buchnevich should be more than capable with Andersson of providing some fucking offense once in a a while. Quinn came back this year with his head up his ass. He is supposed to be developing young players. Not fucking them over. He also just said that Kakko's game that got him here is not the game he has to play here. What? You stupid fuck. So the game that got him to be drafted 2nd overall isn't good enough? What isn't good enough shit for brains is his crappy linemmates because none of them have any creativity. A guy like Kakko needs to play with high end talent you asswipe. At this rate Quinn will be fired by the end of the season if he doesn't get a clue.

Quinn looks like a college coach who doesn't understand how to coach elite, young talent with creativity. That is not a good thing with the team taking so many, highly skilled european players.

We are doing what we do again. This coach sucks, that coach sucks, fire this coach, fire that coach. Enough. Quinn was good to everyone last year. Now after 5 games this year he sucks. Enough please.

Again the issue is we have 2 legit top players, and that's it. After that the remaining forwards are littered with 3rd and many 4th line guys. Put Kakko with Zib and Pan, I am fine with that, still would change NOTHING because we have no forward depth. We'd still be a one line team. Only difference is Kakko would do better being with Zib and Pan, that's it. So do it, I think that's great. We'd still struggle as a team.

If you want any depth maybe you split up Zib and Pan? Then maybe you could have two lines with a top player on each. Still without a # 2 C we'd struggle, but that would give us 2 lines with a dynamic player at least.

 

[kreidertime]

This coach was hired to develop young talent in the first FEW years. Not wait one year and try to make the playoffs with a bunch of useless vets. I hope JD and Gorton set his ass straight.

 

[Stepupstepan]

This college coach needs to go and soon. Enough with this moron already. Just turned on the game to see Andersson and Lingren are being scratched.

 

[kreidertime]

Just shook my head. This coach is losing me fast. They gave up 36 shots on goal despite the win to one of the worst teams in hockey.

 

[kreidertime]

I have no problem sitting any player. However, when your dumbass has been completely unfair to a young player with icetime and you sit him for a scrub in Haley, you are incompetent as a coach. If you sit him for a player with talent then fine. He didn't sit for McKegg. He lost a spot and Haley took it. Pathetic. Lindgren was a +3 in 3 games and fit perfectly with Fox. You punish him for excelling. This is no l0nger a rebuild. It's a shit show. It's a GM trying to get out of dumb contracts in Staal and Smith by giving them playing time.

 

[Greyvtrayn]

Lindgren back in the lineup as is Andersson. Skjei sits. Staal sits (in the penalty box, that is). Soon enough the younger guys will be getting more ice time and Skjei/Staal will lose time.

 

[Ranger71]

Skjei needs to 'self-evaluate'.
