I think everyone needs to chill. This team has done a good job up until now and yes they are falling apart at present but we need to get behind them and build there confidence back up over the next month, if we want them to stand a chance at the playoffs. Come on boys I believe in you!!!!! 
We are having our bad run at the worst time and we all know it would come. It happens every season. We either start the season so bad noone can see us getting anywhere then suddenly we start playing like a top team or its the other way round but that is not going to make me point fingers at anyone, they win as a team and lose as a team it just horrible timing!!!

I'll say it again. There's a complete lack of direction from the bench. Adams needs to step down and bench the team for the remainder of the season and my bet is he'll do a damn good job up there and bring us the playoff trophy (the only trophy that matters ) He's an average player at best now and he's got to put his ego ( or whatever else is keeping him playing) to one side and do what's best for the team.

A
5-2 when you consider:
Confidence down after losing last night
Having Tylor banned unfairly for 5 games
Sam Smith injured
Mark Smith injured.
Biased ref.
Under confident NM
As someone just posted we win and lose as a team, blaming individuals is not always justified. like I say maybe its a case of the other team scoring more goals than us, bounce of the puck, the weather, who knows? That makes me laugh too, G should coach from the bench? Isn't Ben Simon player coach? Where are they in the league? Oh yeah ....... Come on guys !!!

I am not your mate and as i said why dont you go and speak to the staff about budget issuesand is a silly comment one that doesnt agree with you ?
The way you portray your opinion is yes. I respect your opinion I doubt you respect mine. But I'm happy to back my opinion from how I see it, we've got a very skilled team an awesome player in Craig Weller who will play again in the NHL and a very well run club behind the scenes, and the budget for a player coach and a bench coach, I can't see how Neil Francis is doing the job for free although he may not be on much. I think Adams does need to go onto the bench and coach the team he's put together because I do think he's put a quality team together.
But do you not understand that if G was not playing we would be an import down on the ice he is playing because he has been told he has to play . As for not respecting your opinion come speak to me at a game you will find i am very happy to talk hockey my name is Debbie Chapman i stand by the entrance .
I do understand that we would be an import down but compared to other teams we wouldn't be because we have a British netminder. I will concede that this perhaps isn't the best time for him to get onto the bench what with injuries and suspensions but can you not understand my point that a coach really needs to just coach he's obviously got the skills but playing and coaching doesn't really work.
