Around The League - 2024-25 Regular Season

No, decent in regard to their rosters, both of which are developmentally ahead of ours.
well Buffalo has missed the playoffs for 13 years so I would hope they were ahead of us developmentally but that is still a pretty developmentally delayed rebuild

as for Ottawa, they can thank us for taking Mole instead of the douche but even at that, they have not been in the post season since 2017

To me, Buffalo and the Rangers represent the extremes on each end of the spectrum in terms of rebuild rapidity. Neither the Eichel disaster, which is highly atypical, nor the Panarin and Fox "hostage situations," is the the norm in a rebuild. We'll likely fall somewhere in between those two.
 
Well, if the rumors are correct we're about to get a Dubois "hostage" situation. If so it could help.
 
Much improved and the 6+ points difference for the WC is inconsistent goaltending
As in letting this years Vézina winner leave last summer for Bruins? Confused isn’t that part of team building - with poor team building leading to being developmentally challenged?

Thats a mystery , how much of it is going to a great structured Bruins team having a year we havent seen in years ?

He wasnt bad in Buffalo but the team was crap and was mainly a back up

Again why do you keep pimping playoff appearances as though they mean anything? I don't care that we squeaked into the playoffs a couple of times and the Sabres or Sens didn't. The only thing that matters is that none of us won a damn thing that matters. First place or last, playoffs or no playoffs, if you don't finish with a championship your season has been a pathetic failure.

I don't care if the Habs make the playoffs right now because even if they somehow managed to get in they would do nothing. They would win nothing. I don't want to mortgage the future for a one round playoff appearance. If we aren't a Cup contender I'd prefer to be a bottom feeder. Anything but in the dreaded middle of the pack where we will be mediocre for a decade.

Fuck the fans. I want either Cups or early April tee times. Being in between is a perpetual no man's land.

And they want gate revenue. So fuck the fans that think as you do.
 
They won't sell one fewer ticket than they already do.
The point of business is trying to increase revenues but you continue to throw out garbage like a teen fanboy throwing a tantrum.

Dude, they're rebuilding. Doesn't matter if you like the process or how they're doing it.

I have no problem with the rebuild. Count is the guy demanding playoff appearances, not me.
