Too often this team plays like they expect to coast by on talent alone.

where does this rank on “most embarrassing playoff exits” list since 2009?
this is 2nd
2013 was worst for me
Bruins series was awful but they at least made the ECF.

Yeah, after all that yapping about Jarry's stickhandling and he didn't have a single point in this game.

By the way, Jack Johnson still hasn’t won a playoff series.

Why since 2009? Most embarrassing since 1967. 4 straight in 75 is close. Team led by Crosby and Malkin loses to a team that should not have been there and was a seller at the deadline.
I picked 2009 as that’s when Sid and Geno hit their stride

Bruins in conference finals
Flyers where we were exposed as a bunch of pathetic-attitude babies
This one

LMAO immediately after the radio plays the Pittsburgh Dad IC Light commercial enumerating ignominious Pittsburgh playoff defeats.

The roster had some holes, to be certain.

But to have this much talent and not even take this series the full 5 games is beyond unacceptable.

Players, coaches, and GM all deserve blame for this one.

Could see it in Game 1 when they refused to do the dirty work and tried to make the pretty play on the PP. Hence why they went 1 for 7 and the PPG was scored by someone who isn't on the first unit.

A team that could not score when it mattered. It's been that way since after the 2017 Cup. When you build a team around offense, the players that are relied upon to score need to score.

Instead of waiting for the team to **** the bed in December, can we just fire Sullivan now?

Sheary and marleau were bad pickups. Guentzel was not himself understandably. Schultz stinks glad he's gone. Johnson stinks hope he's gone. Mccann thinks he's a goal scorer but he's actually just a second rate second liner and not a third liner. The 3 big guys didn't do enough or really anything. The sully boyfriends line was nothing special.

Okay a question, don't kill me. I don't know the answer. How much stock do you put in a team's first 4 games in 5 months? It was total dog sht, there's no debating it.

they won't because of the circumstances but I'd make a healthy wager he doesn't make it to the end of 2020-21.

less than we are, probably. But still, a far inferior team made quick work of them.
