   Beagle has struggled a bit this year. A lot of that because of the situations he plays in. He has been very good on faceoffs again. Is defensive play and penalty killing has been a bit off this year. Our pk as a unit has been off.

I agree Beagle seems to have lost a step and some energy.  Although he is actually playing well for a 4th liner, I had hoped he would be deserving of the 3rd, or even 2nd line.

   I think he is more suited as a 4th line player. Your typical hard working checker.

He isnt the problem, it’s that our [size=78%]“entertainment first” system flat out sucks.[/size]


As I said before, he has to do more than any center on the team. 


Imagine if Suzy and Helen Keller had to do Beagles role. . . we’d probably be competing with Buffalo for the worst record in the league if those two had to defend anything.


Beagle went from having Willie and Witoswki to having what ever GMBetaMale[/size][size=78%] mistake throws out and and makes Beagle look like a rec league equipment manager . . .[/size][size=78%]


Beagles “short comings”, are not on him,it’s on the wussy roster our incompetent “GM” has paraded out there to sell VIP tickets

  I dont think anyone is blaming Beagle for anything. You mentioned Eller in your post. He actually hasn't played terrible. A bit streaky offensively but he has been pretty good defensively. And he works hard.
