Sometimes an embarrassing loss sparks change.
Personnel wise.
- replace Barrie. I dont care how or with who. He is my new Russell. I dont care what positives he brings, every game with him on the ice he is a net negative.
- send Holloway to the AHL. I think he is trending up but needs to find his touch and confidence
- Sit JP for a few games. Even I am running out of patience. -
- sit Kulak, he has been awful.
- Start Skinner for every game except 1/2 on back to backs until he gives you reason not to.
Strategically.
- Spend all of every practice on defensive coverage and the PK.
- stress to every player that standing in one spot, turning like a table hockey player, is not good defence.
- simplify breakouts. Get it out and go from them there. I dont care if it is more boring, the puck needs to get out first try, every time. At least once per period they seem to spend extended sections in their own end.

Well said. Barrie has been horrible especially. He will never get it together. Defense and goaltending needs to improve. Bottom line or we won’t do anything
|
I actually think Barrie has been our best defenceman as of late.
Who has been better? Not Nurse. Not Kulak. Definitely hasn’t been Ceci.
|
While not perfect I think Bouchard has been our best overall defenceman taking the whole season into consideration.
Yes, he still has some bad decision making but he seems to have less massive errors that lead to goals.
As far as Barrie, I am just not seeing it. His defensive awareness seems to be getting worse. At least once a period he gives up a grade A chance standing in place looking around. Once per game, minimum, a goal is scored while he does it.
I am pretty convinced the offence he brings on the PP could be replaced by Bouchard and perhaps even Nurse. He isn't the QB, the main shooting threat or anything else. He does a good job at moving the puck when a switch of sides is needed and occasionally takes a shot when the cross seam is covered well. Many players can handle that type of play when running a 1-3-1 bumper PP.
I havent looked at any of the fancy stats in a while but I am guessing most would show that Barrie is both failing the eye test (to me) and the statistical test.
