Maybe berube is just a terrible coach who hae no clue how to coach offense.

you dont try to add more scoring, you try to fix the problem...the problem is they all look lost, every player on the ice....i said from the get-go that Bruble or whatever his name is wouldn't fix the problem.Bruyns wroteCOLONOK so then Nick just needed to say "on paper" Philly's forwards are fine.

I'd like to see ol' Ronnie Wilson get another shot.

fucking hire marc crawford and let them play a run-and-gun style hockey.

Those names have had 1 good season under their belts for the most part. Otherwise their history has not been that of a high scoring team at all. That's a middle of the pack scoring team.
fuck ya, glad i traded voracek while he was hot...anton wroteCOLONturris + voracek for mackinnon + lazar aint lookin too bad for me afterall

That is a nice looking top 9 that has performed fine in the past. They can't buy a goal right now, but trading Giroux for Eberle++ isn't going to solve any problems. They are a team that is impossible to get a read on and there is no reason for them not being able to score.
oh wow, rotten ronnie would ruin what pride that team has left.Bruyns wroteCOLONI'd like to see ol' Ronnie Wilson get another shot.

Couturier, Read, Schenn cannot be counted on of a lot of offence.
Hartnell, Simmonds, Downie are not going to get more than 50 points in any season. Maybe one of them gets lucky and gets 52 points, but they're all closer to 40 point players.
Lecavalier is not who he once was. He may get to 55-60, but he has injury issues too and he may not keep up that level of play.
Giroux is their only true 60+ point player but he is treated like a lock for 80+ points player, which he is not.
Beyond what this looks like "on paper" there is something to be said of chemistry. Of those players listed, not one can generate offence with Giroux. Simmonds/Downie can play the grinder role on the line, but there is no playmaker/trigger man to help Giroux.
On defence, no doubt they need help. But their goaltending is not an issue at all.
i tend to agree with this.KapG wroteCOLONVoraceks a first liner. I thought this before he was offered too me too.
Berube is the problem though. Mark my words once he's gone the offense will reappear
