64 with a game score >3!

I think you’re right but it’s apparent it’s now time for significant coaching and player alterations in the offseason

Maybe he watched the minutes with/without Schenn in the lineup last game?

So true.

So is it a player issue or do we start to look at coaches who can’t build a winning game plan against Montreal or Toronto when it matters?

Could be, but think it was more that Schenn was out for half a period. They hit a rough patch again when Schenn returned.

D makes total sense based on eye test. Nyquist is a shock to me as he appears to have all Ehlersβ€˜ dumb plays minus the speed or offensive output. Maybe it’s because he almost creates offense so often but ends up blowing it up most times?

Big Stan has been a drag on this team for a few seasons, but his game this year is much less chaotic. It almost seems like he and Fleury have flipped. Or maybe it’s just the Schenn effect. Pionk has also been less chaotic without Samberg this year.

12M player showed up the 17M guy in that OT!

Ya I know but at some point hopefully there will be some accountability.

28.10.2025 17:54 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

It’s a start but adding Miller and playing Chibrikov instead of Nyquist would have signaled more awareness.

Koepke coasted and watched Guenther put it in the net.

Need to start benching some ineffective vets (14, 70, 5 to start with).

27.10.2025 01:50 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Exactly, but Nyquist is a wasted roster spot for what he brings (not much). And Koepke has been a disappointment other than PK. He watched the winning goal while coasting.

Self inflicted is also putting Schenn and Stanley together. And I thought Stanley was decent again, but Schenn handles the puck like a hand grenade and is too slow against a fast team like Utah.

Totally agree but I’ll be surprised if it happens.

Tonight was an example that although 64 is not a top 4D, Fleury/Pionk is still worse than 64/4. Only hope is Salo joins the Jets or a trade happens.

25.10.2025 04:08 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

The lack of quickness is coach inflicted. Barron created two penalties in his few minutes through hustle and still playing fewer minutes than Nyquist and Pearson who both look like pylons. If not for Flames 27 being a penalty machine, might not have been a good outcome.

25.10.2025 03:01 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Uninspired is being kind. I counted at least five times he single handedly killed plays or gave the puck away. Sit, waive or trade him I would say.

Like way overdone. Giveaway machine and looks like he’s skating in quicksand.

That was a bs penalty call.

Four pools closed at the same time in a city that already has limited facilities. How does this happen?

Hmm…hadn’t realized the Republican Party had officially discredited Judaism and other non-Christian religions following the Old Testament. It’s becoming clearer….

I like it, but notice no 14 or 70 in your line combos. I think it will be a struggle for Arnie to sit 70 and it really shows that Nyquistβ€˜s cap hit is likely best used elsewhere.

16 groups stand behind planning expert critical of Winnipeg Transit overhaul | CBC News A city planning expert says transit's new network is hurting lower-income people who rely on the bus, and over a dozen groups across Winnipeg showed support for that message in a recent letter to city...

"In Winnipeg, with our climate, the expectation that people will wait 30 or 40 minutes for a transfer is unreasonable," In a city where you drive from one end to the other in less time, its ridiculous! www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Yep especially when the opposition knows your only going to force long passes every play.

Apparently running the ball in the rain isn’t a thing anymore? Bombers offense is a joke. Less than 50 yds in the 2nd half not even playing against the Riders first team.

I’d say 14 is wasted cap space. Either need to upgrade or let the young guys play.

That’s not what I was told by my councilor’s office so I’ll be a bit ticked if that’s the case.
