It was burning a hole in his pocket... seems a lot for a UFA - but maybe they know something we don't.
..we did dump 2 contracts saving 4.5 million next year.

Damn - not liking this. They already had a left shot defensive Pettersson they could have played and kept the first. That is way too expensive for a defensive UFA. Nice to see Heinan and Deharnais gone, but damn. :(

A first for a UFA and Sam Lafferty?

EP2 is a nice prospect.

He's nowhere near ready to play 22 + min a game.

There is likely a three or four year extension on the table.

Drew seems like a killer. Dubas fucking other GMs over? Wow, about time, young Jedi.

With another lost season and cap space, I'm sure we'll spend it wisely on a Mikheyev or Sprong in the offseason. Does Tocch walk?

Core exodus should free up even more salary. Reset, Retool, Reboot.

Some of this is payback for the eight + years of utter garbage trolling when the tard was in charge.

Uh Blob, it's not like you took shots for a decade and never swung back. You're not exactly Buddha.

Desharnais was the guy that spoke glowingly of Miller when he arrived in town right?

Put him at #2 on the EP hit list.

I've been a broken record on this but we're pretty much doomed as long as Aqua remains in the picture. Unless he hires a consultant to do a proper management search, which he seems determined not to do. He can't tear himself away from the controls.

Let's face it guys, this team is currently under the direction iof an eighty year old man and a Swede.

And they seem well ensconced in the position.
