I blame TIPPETT for, on purpose, NOT putting out the lineup giving the OIL the best chance to win.

example 1: Sitting Bouchard. This hurts the team in TWO ways. A. It eliminates a puck moving defense man with offense producing potential. And B: forces more ice time for Barrie and Russel who, I would argue, are NOT better players.

example 2: Going back to playing 12 forwards. Playing 11 forwards gave TIPPETT the option to give 29 or 97 time at the 4C slot. When is it a bad thing to play McD more??? Trick question... it is NEVER a bad thing to play McD more.

TIPPETT's player moves continue to be horrible. Just play the best players. This isn't a minor PEEWEE team where you have to sooth egos and give everyone an equal chance to play. I await his next decision to bring back Turris. Gawd. icon_frown
