SNES glaring problems, in order of importance

1. Like, almost literally zero saves (Ullmark was better last night)
2. PK is very bad - system is too passive but, in fairness, no PK will be good if you have point 1
3. Brady out 6 to 8 weeks
4. Timmy Stu isn't producing.
5. Nick Jensen is struggling after hip surgery. Assume this will improve over time but he's nowhere near a top 4 D right now.

Can't decide if this is horrible asset management or just bad luck. Maybe it's both. Like, he's NOT ready for the NHL but seems like he's got good potential for a bottom pair role. I guess I would say, tho, that if you were gonna waive him then do it earlier. Waiting gave teams a chance to get an injury and need a replacement.

I've been so invested in playoff baseball that I've only seen a few minutes of the SNES so far. Everything I've seen so far indicates they are have completely forgotten how to play hockey. So I hope it's just the 5 items above, lol

Strange timing for sure. Why keep him up (with 8 D on the roster) and dress him for the first 2 games, only to waive him a week into the season? I guess because Kleven was hurt in preseason and Jensen was still a question mark?

Almost everyone makes it through waivers the weekend before the season starts.

by practice
The leafs iced the puck 3x in the last minute last night in a 1-1 game. 2 of these were immediately following a clean faceoff win by Nic Roy straight to Carlo who just fired it out of the glass like Grapes would have his dmen do. I'm pretty sure Cowan got benched for attempting a breakout pass toward the centre of the ice.
