Karlsson is a worse trade than getting Kevin Hatcher for however long that was.
Boy did that one bother me.They gave Zubov away there for a guy who they took advantage of in every Playoff Series when he was with the Caps.

Remember when the bottom 6 was the best we had since 2017 and then Sully had to screw it all up?

The Defensive Zone Coverage Breakdown again leads to another goal
This Team cannot Defend with any competence.

I guess they aren’t firing Sully but they bring in a coach to work on the defense and it’s way worse this season. Fire Quinn?

They shouldn’t be this bad though, Sullivan makes them much worse.

Looks like a new defensive strategy has been implemented this season that seems to place both D closer to each other and the puck carrier when facing zone entries. EK been particularly guilty but not only one. It's peewee level bad but happens too often with too many of the pairings to blame 1-2 individuals.

The D also looks lost trying to cover the net front, like they are intentionally avoiding our forgetting to cover players in the slot (Gryz on the last one).

Goalies getting hung out to dry repeatedly, just brutal to watch.

I think EK hates playing for Sully. A shadow of his former self and just seems to have lost any love of the game.

Nah... it's perfectly normal for players to spend 3,5,10 years in the league producing at a certain level and playing at a certain level and then come to a team like Pittsburgh and suddenly become trash on ice. Also perfectly normal for those players to leave to another team and restore their play and production to previous levels. Just one of those mysteries that cannot be explained. Don't think too hard about it.

Lost in this turd is Sid now winning the most faceoffs ever in the NHL. This might be an unbeatable record when he’s all done.
