Coach Noel – Growing frustration in the fanbase. Dustin Byfuglien as a forward? Where were missing players (Ladd, Wheeler – flu, Kane – maintenance). Pressure on him from social media? Facing a new challenge. Process of figuring out how to change the fortunes of this team. Happy with the leadership group of his team? More player discussion ending with Setoguchi talk. Injury update (Postma – waiting for him to cleared for contact. Slater – feeling better, above 50%, getting closer. Clitsome – slow process, not close. Halischuk – a few weeks away).
