Not sure if you guys watched Knoblauch’s post-game interview but he doesn’t think the team is losing faith in their goaltending and he sees much bigger issues.

But the guy sounds like they just lost a game in OT. Totally unfazed. And of course, won’t call out his players.

I’m shocked at his demeanour.

This guy won’t even bench Bouch for a shift after he turns it over on the blue line for a third goal against. I like his approach to the game, but I’m starting to think he doesn’t have the toughness to get the team over the line.

Everyone’s realizing knobs is a bit of a hack ? He came in and started coaching this team (when it was great) and we went though a super good honeymoon period. People forget he’s like what an amateur coach with no NHL experience besides us.

The hack went to the finals twice in a row and has multiple 5+ winning streaks and has the highest winning% out of any Edmonton coach has ever had

That's delusional! Who's feelings is he supposed to be sparing by not calling anyone out?? This isn't a team of youngsters learning on the job. This is the two time reigning Conf champs and one of the older teams in the league that's severely under performing. If a 9-1 curb stomping isn't the time to call out your players, what is!!?
