    this team is horrible in the defensive end ... no one skates ... they've made up for it by being pretty good offensively but that will only work out so long ...

    phaneuf logs too many minutes ... i'm not sure if that is the reason he is bad or not ...

    He's played well this year comparatively but I think phaneuf is the least if our concerns on the back end

    really ... we need 2 things ... a good coach and a lockdown defender ... the latter being harder to come by ...

    A new gm should be in order ... Is he not the one who handed dion that contract. And yes a new coach and shutdown D man would help. But most importantly ... better talent evaluation is in order, if it was Rask would still be a leaf.

    and maybe thats what shanny will bring to the job a little patience in letting talent develop before giving up on someone.

    I read that Toronto might make a push to get him ... he'll be the most sought after NHL coach in a long time once his contract expires. I expect Babcock to explore all his options when his contract expires ...
