No Excuses No Limits! The mother fucking goddamn season thread

So, parsing the "new" lines, we can at least draw some conclusions:

- at least berube is acknowledging that the McMann-Domi-Robertson line was actually good, before we broke it up because Calle fucking Jarnkrok was healthy. Also, Holmberg on that 2nd line was actually working too. Basically, coach admits that the new "adds" laughton and krok instantly destroyed the only things that were kind of working.

- a simple mid-game swap of Laughton and Holmberg here would make plenty of sense, and would have the players all in sensible slots again. otoh, if his mid-game swap is dropping robertson for krok, we're all fucked.

- it's a fucking criminallly incompetent joke that we fucked our cap all year and especially at the deadline to waste impact-player money on Kampf/Krok/Reaves. Such a stupid fucking own-goal that was obvious even last year.

- doesn't seem to matter how bad Benoit is anymore, he's a permanent fixture. he's been fucking worse than ever since the deadline and they're not even thinking of trying myers instead. And our PK is shit too, which is the whole reason he's in the lineup.
 
If you were going to give up a First and a prospect for a Winger cosplaying as a Center you might as well have made that offer for Donato, who is legit having an excellent offensive season. Laughton was such a Shanahan gud pro add and isnt even as advertised as a C

Its a shame they never got a real look at Steeves and Villeneuve. Every other team would try their AHL kids performing well before shipping off two firsts and two prospects for depth players.

I think Carlo makes more sense than Laughton, because of the contract, and history of being defensively sound and Rielly being a nightmare under Berube

Laughton is a waste

Unfortunately the Tanev injury is still killing us as he's not back up to speed or not at 100%.

The Carlo add is doing everything we hoped for tbh.

It's ludicrous we dumped Timmins and kept the two stiffs.

"good"

They were on pace for 95 points and got mollywhopped in the 1st round of the real playoffs. They were 6th in the Metro at the time play stopped for covid.

and that was the year before we traded for his shitty, busted ass.
 
If Timmins and Dewar were going to be traded for peanuts, why didn't we at least try to sneak them through waivers?

team was #9 xgf% on the season. #3 xga.

Foligno was #2 of the forwards in TOI/gm and Dzs%. #3 in xgf%.
 
I mean that's fine. It should be a very good defensive line at least.

2 third lines - 1 for offense, 1 for defense.
