Watched the Tre presser.
Interesting, despite not giving any concrete answers (too early to have them, to be fair). I like the way he thinks about things, I have to say.
Most important takeaways for me, that he says we need to change the DNA of the team so that we don’t wilt in those closeout games. Said once Florida scored the first one in game 7, we looked like we were down 4-0 (I said at the time how critical it was we scored first).
He had a strong and positive reaction on Tavares (said he’s a subjectivity a big fan), and less so on Marner (just objectively that he’s a great player). He didn’t shut the door on Marner, saying he told him both camps should step back and take a breath. But when asked if he’d for sure make an offer to Marner and Tavares, he didn’t say yes.
Seems like changing the DNA and not definitely making an offer to Marner means he intends for him to leave.
