defensive meltdowns are dragging this team down. Need to trade for some more two-way defensive heavy forwards. The d-men also need to keep guys in front of them.

We just allowed a goal 4 seconds after allowing a goal. This team is trash, I shouldn’t waste my time with them any more.

It was a good win against a team they should beat. 

I still don't see the quality of play that we saw in the second half last year. Shots on goal are down and our physical presence is not as evident. 

I'd like to see a trade for a Top 9 forward with more of a physical presence. And I'm really over McGinn. I just don't think he offers much on a nightly basis.

They should have scored a couple more, and letting Chicago back into it was horrible. Another W, tho.

First one wasn’t much they could do just a great play by Kane (I’d say still a top 5-10 player in the league). The second one was just a really bad job by Mrazek. Petr has mostly been solid this year but still has some head scratchers like that one, the first one against Ottawa, etc. To be a true contender we really need him playing up to his level from late last year and be better than he has been. I’m confident in him though.

    • Honestly, I have only one pair of white shoes (only because they were new and like $4 from the Goodwill) other than my easily-cleaned Crocs. A man's got to think ahead.
    • Down to Carolina and Washington for Ehlers. 
    • Who are your top three breakout candidates for next season?    My three: Jatavion Sanders- Simply put he is the best receiving TE we have had since Olsen. We all saw his potential over that three game stretch prior to his neck injury where he showed a real connection with Bryce. Good route runner with glue for hands, limited blocking upside but he gives solid effort. With Tremble already being hurt I don’t see a reason why he already isn’t our starter and clear future at TE. Trevin Wallace- For a developmental LB forced into a starting role last year he  exceeded expectations. LB is one of the hardest positions to adjust to from college, and for a prospect who was widely regarded as very raw, surprisingly he was solid in coverage and only had an 11.9% missed tackle rate. He was overly aggressive consistently, and needs to work on his play recognition. But he is set up to be our best LB next season, and likely starter for years ahead. Even barring reaching his upside, his floor was clearly a lot higher than draft pundits assumed(Morgan can scout LBS). Cade Mayes- I am hopeful Cade wins the starting job at C this season. He may have been our most improved player last season, he looked like an above average starting C after he took over for an injured Corbett. He allowed 0 sacks on 327 pass block snaps. Corbett can not stay healthy, and at this stage in his career Mayes is objectively the better player. Mayes is only 26 and gives us the potential of stability at C, something we have never had since Ryan Kalil retired. Corbett slots in as a great backup C/Guard, and Cade continues to develop and gain more chemistry with Bryce and our stud duo of Hunt/Lewis.
