I bet Sandy isn’t considered a players coach, but Berry can sit in the meetings and preach history and culture it the only history his team reminds of is Bjorkmans team
For anybody who bleeds Kelly green the last two seasons are far more then inexcusable it’s pathetic. I have had season tickets since 94 I will not next year if Berry is still there.
I wish I knew but all these players who scored in juniors don’t just lose their scoring touch , but systems can handicap how players produce. One year might be an anomaly but years is a trend.
I know Berry loves the local guys as most of us do but the talent has to be equal or greater then the other players who are available. We don’t need a team of 4th liners. I still think something about coaching or systems is holding us back. These players don’t just forget how to score, something just seems off.
Why is JJ on this team ? We could boot 5-9-7 along with him. Bring all new blood cause Berry this ain’t working. Your building a culture of a team that has no fire, no scoring but we have good puck possession.
For so just venting but why are we doing this two years in a row, is it coaching, systems they run or what. Less talented teams are scoring more goals per game then us and have a power play clicking around 20%. If we were we would be really tuff to beat IMHO.
My point is most of those guys go mia when we really need a boost. I know juniors aren’t always an indication of future success but how else do you rate them. If your a defensive forward who kills penalties and brings energy ala Senden it’s a bonus when you score but if your brought in as a top six forward and you don’t that’s a problem. We know we need all five guys playing D but you need scoring to win games, unrealistic to expect 1-2 goals to win every game.
