Rob has been great but this is far as he will ever take us with his defensive first system. Florida plays the same system. They just do it better with better players. Unfortunately, this is what we’re gonna get.

Unfortunately I agree. This is as far as Rod takes us. Against elite teams, his style is trash vs elite playoff hockey

I think it’s the system. He plays defensive first. But we don’t have the guys. Small soft and old. 

Florida plays the same system, yet the system is the problem? Florida has better players, yet Rod is the problem? The style is trash against elite teams, yet the defending champions play the same style?

Florida plays "generally" the same system with some key differences especially offensively they dont just cycle and hope for shots they drive the net and ALWAYS have guys screening the goalie....

I think it funny you guys want Rods head when the team that is kicking his teeth in is playing his style of game with better players.  
 

That style wins. Problem is we are way too soft to match the physicality that Florida brings (as are most teams judging by the easy work that the canes made of the devils and capitals as well as the panthers winning the cup last year and well on their way to making their third consecutive final).

Yea they lost the SC finals 2 years ago to Vegas which plays the same way.  Big neanderthal forwards that beat people up and score dirty goals.

Why is it so hard for some people to understand its not about similar styles and one team is better at it than the other. Its about 1 team, us, that isnt even playing their own style and look demoralized from the moment the puck drops and then playing like dogshit. That is all on Rod.

The Canes physically dominated 2 of the top 16 teams in the league this calendar month. If you truly believe Florida is just that much more physical than us, then what does that say about the rest of the league? Why didn't they go 82-0 this year, if they are orders of magnitude better than every other team?

Because playoff hockey and regular season hockey aren’t the same thing.  It’s a combination of the game intensity being dialed up with loose officiating.

Reached out to people in the organization. Rod absolutely has to make this series competitive and win some games. "Yes plural" 

 

Right now his seat is so hot, he getting blisters.
