I’m wondering how they are still so many Sullivan defenders at this point.
but the PP is so bad, in relation to who we have on it, that it’s losing us games. so, not reallyI’m wondering how they are still so many Sullivan defenders at this point.
Because up until the team's last game or 3, the powerplay was their only issue. They've been consistently outchancing teams at 5 on 5.
Or does none of the credit go to the coach when those things work?
For the past four years, I’ve heard about how the pens “were so good, other than x”I’m wondering how they are still so many Sullivan defenders at this point.

And Reirden is responsible for the PP, per Sullivan, so...but the PP is so bad, in relation to who we have on it, that it’s losing us games. so, not reallyI’m wondering how they are still so many Sullivan defenders at this point.

It was goaltending then depth now the PP.
The team continues to underachieve under Sullivan. And this feels like Johnston era
Sullivan is the head coach. Any inefficiency in the tactics are his responsibility; one way or anotherAnd Reirden is responsible for the PP, per Sullivan, so...but the PP is so bad, in relation to who we have on it, that it’s losing us games. so, not reallyI’m wondering how they are still so many Sullivan defenders at this point.

When have things gone well? They’ve played like 8 complete games in the past 16 months. The team has continually underachieved, ****, since they lost to the caps in the playoffs.For the past four years, I’ve heard about how the pens “were so good, other than x”I’m wondering how they are still so many Sullivan defenders at this point.

Didn't realize it was Sullivan's responsibility to stop the puck.
Guess we should blame Sully for that turnover to the Isles in OT instead of Jarry...
Look, all I'm saying is coaches get none of the credit when things are going well and all of the blame when they aren't. Just think critically instead of blaming the coach for everything.
And before you say it, I'm not pretending everything is sunshine and roses, but it's lazy to blame the coach for things out of his control (the PP, the goaltending, etc).
I honestly don't know how Reirden still has a job at this point.When it's time to blame Sully I will. You can tell because I'm blaming Reirden right now and have been for weeks haha
