Jim Nill has made an absolute mess of this club. He has to be gone at the end of the season.

No idea what happened as the Blues looked like an ECHL team for the first 6 or 7 minutes of the game, just like their last game

this is a worse lineup than any one last year. 1 defensemen, 1 guy just called up from the ahl, 2 roster claims, crouse and perlini are rookies

it's a basic question of talent, the Stars don't have any outside of Seguin and Spezza. Klingberg sometimes when he's not playing like complete poo poo.

Through a combination of total incompetence at the general manager's office and bad injury luck the Stars have ended up with a lineup full of no talent players at forward and defense. Doesn't matter how hard some of those players work, they aren't beating any playoff club in this league.

loving Nill has to go before he can do anymore damage. The total epitome of an old school clueless GM.

Also holy gently caress buy out Jamie Oleksiak already. Guy is John Scott except our retarded coach plays him 15 minutes a night instead of 5 minutes on the 4th line.

Babcock never should have started Andersen in this game, and he certainly shouldn't have kept him in after that second goal. It's totally irresponsible to have Bibeau up and never play him for any reason.

If they don't think Bibeau can play in these situations then they should trade for a real back up yesterday.

Or they can just play Enroth and not take the chance on injuring their starter by playing him all the time. It's Carlyle/Horacek with Bernier all over again.

Bibeau was pretty good the two games he played so I dunno why they have cold feet. The only reason I can see why they have Andersen tonight is they don't play until next friday. But even still.

I think the plan was that Enroth failed and Bibeau would be a placeholder until Ramo was ready but that doesn't seem to be working out.

Like, something is happening and the Leafs don't seem to have their first choice situation, but this doesn't seem like a problem that should be super hard to fix.

Ramo ended up trash which anyone who watched the Flames last year could have guessed, Enroth had to have done something to sour the team in practice, and Bibeau has always been bad, so I get it to a degree. But sometimes you might as well just play a bad goalie, cause your tired starter won't do any better and it saves you trouble in the long run.

I think the real discussion is probably about the orgs ability to evaluate marginal goaltending, and Babcock's utter unwillingness to play the players he's given.
