to get their act together. Zuc, Miller and Brassard have been pulling the sled. Somebody else needs to step-up. Maybe Nash will get some fire before he crashes and burns in the playoffs...
I really get no joy out of piling on the guy because he's had a very good career for them, particularly for an undrafted guy, but he's just completely cratered since the 2014 playoffs.
Those type of plays kill me. It's a total confidence and even coaching thing. He didn't do that with this frequency in prior years. It's just stupid hockey - not a physical limitation.
about how he plays hurt (never mind that no one but AV wanted him trying to play hurt with more talented players in the press box)
(note: at this moment with McD out and lack of cap space its a good thing though)
And in fairness to that GIF above, most of our guys treat the puck like a fucking grenade this year. Stepan committed an act just as pitiful last night to close out the game. Glass does it 5x per game. Staal has done it all year. Confidence or are these guys just not as hard working as they used to be?
SURELY there must be other people who are playing poorly, and the struggles cant be all Girardi's fault. Therefore, by implication, not worth talking about.

Haha that's wonderful
Played well last night though. And there's no reason why he can't continue to play well..with limited minutes on the third pairing.

Regardless - blame a young kid for it.
