I ****ing hate Franson so much. As much as I love Gardiner, I would jump on a Staal deal just to get Franson out of town. Christ, he sucks.
But not as much as Carlyle. In a game where you're getting zero offense, bench Kadri. Why, because he was obviously gassed and couldn't take his man on that Detroit goal. Meanwhile, sucking shit like Holland, Panik, and Franson carries no consequences. It's only if you're really good like Kadri and Gardiner that you get embarrassed and abused.
And where is this system that is supposed to get us better possession? Almost every play is a dump or shoot in. And it's like the guys just aren't in sync at all out there.
As we all wanted, they should have fired Carlyle at the end of last year, given a younger guy a shot, and seen if it worked out, then maybe keep him, and if not, go all out for Babcock. They're pissing away the whole ****ing season with that fat ****ing dumbass in charge back there.
It is so frustrating watching this team lose. Because they lose with zero compete. ****ers.
