Devils Vs Flames - League - 31st Dec 23 - FO 16:00

[E.D.S.]

How on earth anyone thought Wilde was the answer at this stage of the season. Stay at home D man, yes. Another Crawford, nope. Baffling recruitment decision.

 

[Hedd Wyn John]

Dreading Wednesday against the orange champions to be.

Sheffield will tear us apart on Wednesday if we play like we did tonight.

 

[Steveo86]

PR post game interview will be the usual drivel and nonsense like every other shite gutless performance it will be “ I felt we dominated the game for the majority of it “
I am sick to death of these gutless , cowardly performances teams are doing what they want with no repercussions.
But unfortunately this is going to happen from now on especially with the snowflake society

 

[BostonBart22]

No doubt another new coach in the summer, franny probably, when does the person picking the coaches every year take some responsibility, is Todd still the best gm or only when lord is his coach

PR got a 2 yr contract, perhaps his hands won't be tied on selecting players next season and owners intent on bringing same old same old back .

 

[E.D.S.]

Nah these two losses will put fire in the belly and we’ll put on a good show, only to create false hope and paper over the cracks.

 

[Kevin roog]

It could be the classic”sometimes you lose hockey games” from coach boring

 

[NathanG]

I'm not sure changing head coach every off season is the best approach. We do need a clear out though, if PR has a say in recruitment, let him build. Otherwise we'll be on the same loop post Covid.

 

[The_Stick_]

Sacking PR is simply not the answer.

" Feel for Duggan. His impact is next to nothing. He looks unfit but that’s what you get if you aren’t playing regularly. "
a professional keeps himself fitt , its down to him.

 

[jimmy snels]

Absolute shambles. I'll take Busch out of my physicality statement next because other than him our forwards are powder puff lightweights, with D men with no physical upside either. We got smashed around our own barn tonight. We can't cope with it.
Nothing will be addressed however because we are just a safe haven for under performing players and coaches.

Tickets, bar prices, food, jerseys, all up. Quality? Downward trending !!

 

[kristian]

That was a repeat of lastnight.
We have no passion no balls. Who's in that locker room lying down the law shouting screaming that the "performance" is not good enough by a mile

 

[Ejercito Rojas]

No single player is the answer to the perennial problem of an unbalanced team of mediocre players.

At the moment, we’d likely lose to Sheffield Wednesday if they also took up the sport.

 

[Hedd Wyn John]

On the plus nobody will argue with me anymore that we can still win the league.

Though that's not much of a plus side.

 

[jenks33]

I would definitely give PR next season but let him get rid of/sign whoever he wants to. I still feel a lot of this roster are Kelman/Franny recruits. Like august04 2.0 said yesterday we’ve still got some players on this roster (who have been here from day one post Covid) who are never going to guide us to a league title. Talented players but they don’t bring it every night like your Haddads,Morrisettes,Ulmers etc

Likely nobody! If they can’t show it on the ice, it’s unlikely they are holding each other to account. Probably busy planning where to party the night away!

Thanks heavens they didn’t do something daft like changing our historic and iconic logo to add to the on ice misery

 

[doron]

if Kelman/Franny are the recruiters or are blocking sinnings or have untouchable players, then they need to release control, because its not working.
