I think they need Mike Martz to help with their offense!!!
Icehogst, Their offense looked Great when i turned the game when i got home from work during the end of the 1st and beginning of the 2nd but looked lost and confused after that. The first parts i watched they controlled the game, shooting the puck,s getting Great shots and then BAM it was gone. Pressing a little is my guess. They have not looked like this so far this season. They will break out of it.
Good News is that the Goaltending looked good for the 2nd night in a row and tonight Huet looked Awesome at times and..... they got a Point out of it.
What the hell happened to the Hawk offense? Since their 3 goal start against San Jose they have scored 6 goals in 12 periods. They can't get the puck through center ice, have no sustained pressure when they do get it in, and apply zero pressure on the opponent's D as they break out of the Hawk zone. Non-existent offense.
Coyotes are good and definitely deserved to win this game. Hawk D and goaltending were good and held us in the game. Hawk O is too good for this to continue. Someone needs a break-out game. Or Q needs to settle the lines.
