That was one of the worst performances I've seen in the last 25 years. The team looked totally unprepared. Blashill's seat is gonna start getting warm if they don't show some progress soon.
If they don't make improvements, he may not make it to Thanksgiving.

And what about the GM who hired the head coach? Year 5 of rebuild.
That time will come, but that's an assessment of the trajectory of the roster as a whole.

Last night was just a low-effort, low-energy, one guy doesn't know where the other guy is going to be type of performance. The leash for that is going to be real short.

For a team with youth and speed, they have played slow and uninspired so far. I get Bedard is out, but it appears none of the young guys are progressing at all and the team as a whole is just playing rec league level hockey.

Not sure how long this will be allowed to continue without a major shakeup.

As long as the arena is full of people who come to hear Jim Cornielson sing and relive old memories, I'm not sure anything will change. The Bulls and the Cubs have kind of the same formula (see the statues, point to the banners, look at the ivy, fill the seats, - no problem here, move along, move along).

I hope Bedard is watching this from the bench and getting his 2 cents in.
Unfortunately, they still say he is out until November.
