Someone better call the internet police. A snowflake's feelings were hurt.

And be careful what you ask for because the likely "interim" will be Sacco.
Although hopefully, management will realize he is in charge of special teams (at least he was) and they have sucked worse than 5 on 5.

The tank will then be in full swing.

And to think the centennial game if played right now (and probably won't be much different come Dec 1st) would be between the two teams tied for last place in the Atlantic.

I have tickets to that. It's going to be a who's who of who sucks!

At some point Sweeney needs to have some accountability for the team he assembles as well.

Yeah right. The Jacobs, Neely, Sweeney circle jerk will continue without disruption. Monty will get the axe and then be immediately be re-hired by another team. That will be followed by immediate success for that team as well. C'mon we've seen this movie before.

yeah. Just because Sweeney SHOULD face accountability, doesnt mean he will. I will hope for it but in the end its just another chapter of the same story.

I think if you bought tickets to that game they should comp a few beers. Wont happen, but it will help with the pain.

That's going to be an expensive one. Here's to 100 years of getting dunked on by Bleu, Blanc et Rouge!

And Swayman is on his way to have his save % numbers match his salary numbers (.884 vs 8.25).

Would you look at that. LFS has a molting partner. Hi there!


Do you all molt in a pile, or is it an individual experience? Asking for the next national geographic documentary.

So Swayman does deserve some criticism. I wont discount that. I will also say that for all their blustering about adding size this off season, the team in front of him has done very little to help him out.

Shots against and possession for numbers are really terrible.

Ah and so the vultures begin to circle. I hope you catch a disease picking from our corpse.

You wont die, just linger. Thats worse than death.

Generally not disagreeing with the assessment of the team in front of him...BUT, look at the shots against for his last 3 games (SA 31 SV% .871, SA 23 SV% .870, SA 22 SV% .727). Looking at this seasons stats thus far, it actually "looks" like he is better, SV% wise, when seeing more SA. In any case, so far he isn't living up to his end of the "bargain", and I use that term loosely. Very early in this mega contract and I don't expect this to continue (God I hope not!), but still the rust from missing all of camp should be fully shaken off by now.

Oh you brought a buddy! How cute. Is it platonic or are you the real deal?

Not taking the 2-year arbitration deal is really starting to look bad on Sweeny

Eh, I think Sway will turn it around. Monty on the other hand, sorry but I think it's time to go.

Jack Adams award winner in 22/23. Loses top two centers in 23/24 and coaches the team to a 109 point season and 2nd in the division by one point. Now a short 11 game skid and it's time to go?

Hey, I was saying that based on the decisions he made at the end of the 22/23 season and moreso his decisions in the first round elimination that year. There were plenty of issues last year as well squarely on the coaching staff not the least of which all the too many men penalties. The 22/23 team was just playing happy playing for a "player's coach" vice a more disciplinarian coach (Cassidy who coached the cup winning team that year btw). Now the player's coach approach is coming home to roost...undisciplined, no clear game plan, etc. So yeah, I blame much of what is wrong with this team on coaching.
