you kinda complained about our play from the deadline right through the tampa series though? weird ugly hockey with bad tactics pretty sure you said? i'm surprised you'd want very little change on depth and also be cool w bringing the same coach back.

Iirc i was quite happy how they ended the season.

Don't love the playoffs tactics but i did like how the depth guys that i wouldnt mind seeing back looked.

And again, we're looking at hopefully an injection of Knies, Robertson, (Holmberg, McMann) plus a ton of cap to re-sign or replace ROR and Bunting (or add a dman instead), so there should a nice injection of players that i like over what we ended up losing in the playoffs with.
 
I also think they're gonna add a difference maker D this summer, probably through trade(?) That was supposed to be McCabe but it just wasn't and it was one reason why the team looked so much worse in the playoffs than they did a year ago.

But yeah, injecting some talent up front should be a priority too.

p.s. you loved the deadline and defended them all the way through so you should want to them to stand pat, no?

nope. just chose to not sound like i was gonna jump off a ledge over engvall and schenn for the rest of the season.

and turns out there was no need to, because you're cool with resigning him anyway.

worst deal of that day was trading sandin and not using the pick/bringing in another forward.

and now we have room to bring in another forward, and knies looked like a great addition too.

sadly can't get rasmus back tho.

Has to be horse shit but I'm gonna choose to believe this for comedic purposes. Fuck it.

even if it's not true i have a hard time believing that Dubas thinks all that much less of the guy that he decided was worth risking TWO years of capspace on last year, that he wouldn't be worth risking ONE year of cap on this year.
 


Interesting notes:

1. they are going to make changes to the way they play
2. They are waiting for answers on our own UFAs
3. Tre hasn’t been able to be involved with draft at all so they are still focused on smart 3rd liners.
