And if we can convince the 3 Pettersson’s to foil up and go dirty goon maybe Paul Newman will buddy up with Doc as an advocate with the hockey gods.

Pretty sad if true.

You'd think the old geezer would want a complete and utter tear down to hide the body of work and make everyone forget this franchise was the last victim of the Ovaltine Cereal Killer.

Guess he doesn't care about the stinging indictment of his soiled Depends and reputation.

Maybe pull a LTIR guy as player coach. Chytl?

Commodore and Raycroft were tossing Bert's name around on their pod.

Yeah...Gold now means gavel lands on failure immediately.

Sedins and RJ give legacy a chance and if they fail in 3 years JR is forgotten.

Old cunt plays the leveling game.

Those black seats down low that didn't get finished until mid season are now known as the Cheap Seats

Is ownership typical of the cash strapped hard hit property developers we read about on the news?

Again, if you can't afford the maintenance on an asset, you can't afford the asset.

I think that's an almost universally applicable aphorism.

Hoglander for a third, more than he's worth, is yet another testament to how bad the Geriatric and RoboSwede were.

It also begs the question, what the fuck were the Sedins and RyJo doing under the previous group?

Were the sitting on their thumbs silently cashing their cheques as the team went into the dumpster?

Who is Gallagher related to?

^^^^^^

MPete for a distant first begs the same questions of current and past management.

Just what we the current promoters doing in their previous roles?

In Vancouver it is called the Pettersson Principle

I think the twins were "junior executives " last season. Lots of suggestions, but TFGs ignored good advice. Now, the twins can learn from the bad mistakes made over the past 4 years.

The Oleksiak deal suggests that TN(ew)FG's were paying attention to the "what not to do" moments of T(hose)FG's.

He essentially gets Meaty's money, but for 3 years fewer than MP had remaining, and also, there does not appear to be any NMC/NTC language attached.

Oleksiak is apparently decently mobile, maybe not as mobile as MP, but he won't get pushed off the puck and their offensive contributions are essentially a wash.

Team Cap goes up, percentage of cap burned on the position goes down, no limiting clauses, more effective player signed, 1st round pick acquired.

Fuck around.....that's NOT something we've seen from a management crew here in more than a decade.
