He is responsible for making sure they are ready and motivated to play. I have been disappointed with that aspect and he does not seem willing to be tough on this team.
If he doesn’t bench Niskanen for the next game, I am done with Trotz. Chorney deserves to be playing more anyway. It is such an obvious and needed move.

I dont know what is going on with Niskanen. I cant see benching him. All I know is we need to fix our dcore.

You guys that continually shit on Carlson. You should be changing your whipping boy to Niskanen. He has been downright awful. Carlson has been by far our best dman. Another note. Boweys game is steadily improving. I think he may have surpassed Djoos.

wow, an entire GDT were no one "shit" on Carlson, yet we continually do so ::)
I'm beginning to suspect there is a lot of lead in the water in Regina.

Well. . . In all fairness, if a Dman goes unnoticed, more often than not it’s a good game
On the other hand, if everyone else just fucked up and stunk worse . . .
But yeah, Carlson didn’t make any glaring “Dylan-esque” (que Stuck In The Middle With You), goal giving mistakes that game
(“Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right, here I am, . .”
Now if someone did a hybrid Carlson highlight/blooper video set to that song, they’d never pay for their own drink as long as I’m there , but. Anyone who got the refences wouldn’t pay for much with me around anyway )

Oh, I’m sure Trotz will be pissed - it’s what he does about it that matters. It’s one thing to stick with a guy that is in a slump, but Nisky has been making dumb decisions all year long. Nisky is an established veteran, and giving him a game or two in the press box sends a strong message to the team, and I think would light a fire under him. Chorney needs to get some playing time anyway in case someone gets hurt.
Mickstix:
Did you guys hear Trotz didn't address the team at 2nd intermission. It was Holtby who did? Not sure if true, it's just what I read. I thought he should of called a time out sometime in the 2nd and lost his shit completely, but he's better at the "I'll be quiet, I'm disappointed" method. Which has proven to be an exceptional motivator/fixer, over his 4 years here. lol
