"“I played hockey for many years, and follow the Oilers as well as our Junior A Team, Cranbrook Bucks. What I see for most of the players is lack of effort and commitment. I recognize that on paper some teams are better than others, but on average the “hardest working” team comes out on top. If a player makes more than one dumb play during a game, he should be benched immediately! Accountability must be demanded by the coaching staff! ” — Don Bos, Cranbrook, B.C."

Another armchair coach, BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

I’ve never heard of you, so obviously “playing hockey for many years” qualifies you as an NHL coach, right?  LOL, I guess I just forgot about your long career playing for so many years…../sarcasm.

Talk about missing context here, what a ridiculous take. Ignoring all the injuries we had earlier in the season.

Take Jesse Puljujarvi, for example. Now that the team is about 99% healthy, you can see what happens. He was a healthy scratch against Seattle yesterday.

But hey, why bother with truthful context when you can spout off anything in the newspaper?
