The problem with Doty and Lepine struggling to buy a fight is that why should an opponent fight them when his team is winning ? Perhaps if we could actually be winning rather more often then Doty and Lepine might just be worth their place.

Unless it’s giving the puck away and taking dumb penalties Lepine isn’t ever going to be of any worth nowadays in our league.

When does one trick pony Chernomaz start to come under fire for this garbage? Several weeks ago.

The league has evolved since Lepine was last here whilst he seems to have Devolved.He is at fault far too frequently, he is off the pace, steps into hits that aren’t there and isn’t policing the ice at all. In no way shape or form is he showing any form of leadership whilst on the ice.It’s a shame to say it but it’s a waste of an import slot, 2 year deal, uni course and captaincy.
The teddy bear toss was a fiasco. My sympathies go to Ken for being the messenger of the decision made and he has come into some unwarranted criticism on social media as if it was his decision.
I do not have the expectation for us to win every game. It isn’t feasible or realistic to do so in sport but I expect us to show some fight, endeavour and passion in our performances. Last night we had nothing and in fact the complete opposite of what Chernomaz wanted as per his pre match interview. He is as culpable for last nights shambles as the players as we started badly & lacking intensity and we just got progressively worse through the game.
Whilst not completely to blame I believe the D have no confidence in garnett, too often after we concede the team go into their shell and go ultra defensive to the point where all 5 skaters are around the goalies crease and give not option of an outlet pass so we can’t alleviate the pressure on us. Whilst he is a capable netminder on his day if there isn’t confidence in him then a change needs to be made.
All of last weekends good work was undone in 60 minutes of nonsense. Very disappointing.

You have to smile, the highlights have now been put up on the website, shame they are not so quick with an apology to all the fans they mugged off. I have been going since Russ Timmins took to the ice (oldies only will remember him), his lack of skill and indeed skating ability didn’t stop him giving 100% every time he was on the ice, I would take 5 of him right now!
