Missed the game. Did the team play like they were playing in Boston or something?

To be honest, I'm really not all that mad about the loss or the shellacking as much as I am about the quality of reffing in this particular game.
I've never been one to complain about officiating but today's was soooooo obvious that even the Sportscentre panel was talking quite a bit about it during the 1st intermission alone.

Lol, have you ever played in net? It wasn't only Luongo's fault.. It should be up to the team to clear the rebound, everyone was caught watching the puck on most of the goals. And there was only one goal that was directly from a rebound.

Let's be honest here I doubt schneider would have done better with that team effort today. Posted via RS Mobile | |

The system in Florida is much different from Vancouver.
Took Ballard like 2 years to adapt to it...might take the same for Garrison  | |

Hmm... Guess it's a good thing this game was too early for me.
I completely missed it.  | |

Honestly, I was so stoked on this signing, but he's been an absolute bust so far. Other than him being a let down, our entire D has been pretty bad.
BRB, Top 6 looks great on paper
BRB, goodluck winning a cup with said Top 6

Countless times he could have banked it off the boards but I see him pass up the middle or he'll pass it to a winger in the neutral zone who's completely covered.
Don't even get me started on him in front our net.  | |

like i said. It'll take him time for him to adapt to the system
Same thing with Ballard and Booth
Both former Florida players who have taken awhile (and might still be) getting used to AVs system
You would think these guys would be capable of doing a good job but it baffles me how guys from fla that join our team struggle

BRB, goodluck winning a cup with said Top 6 | Not saying he didn't suck today, but so did the entire D. He just sticks out more cuz he's the newest signing.
Isn't Ballard making $4.5m? 
His signing wasn't hailed as the next "omgz WEBER" ... just a local boy who took a discount to play in Vancouver. He probably could have got north of $5m from another other team. It takes times for players to adjust, btw how is Suter doing with that massive new contract in Minny? | |

Ballard makes $4.2 mill and up until now, he's been a turnover machine. AV loved Rome cause he would always go for the safe plays. Ballard tried to do too much.
Our D looks so good on paper, yet they've been playing pretty bad all season. I don't get it?
