The rub here is I would wager some or all of your points have been tried and failed. NObody is willing to take any of our ' fringe' players for any value in return. It is us who would have to sweeten the pot with draft picks and retention. GMJB put us in such a corner that there is no escape. Any Cap Relief will go to Petey, Hughes, a top 4 D, a top 6 fwd. We got 1 more yr of the Luong recapture, 1 more yr of Loui, 1 more of Roussel, 1 more yr of Beagle, 3 more yrs of Myers & Ferland, we're hooped!!

Surely you are high!

Gee, I wonder why GMJB never thought of this?

This was discussed on HNIC? or the radio, but essentially, Lou's bonus has been payed and the actual dollars ro be payed is around 2,5 million x 2yrs. The Cap $ is 6 mil x 2 which may interest a team trying to get to the floor.

Elliot never said that, you drunk?

Yet Jimbo signed him for 2 yrs, cuz he is such a good scout, harumph!

You're high !

Basically, you have cited information everyone is aware of, nothing new here. Anyone can look back and say .......... GMJB answers to the owner, no move is made without his approval, this is why he is the GM. Anyone with half a brain and some fortitude was fired by the owner. What are you going to do if you replace GMJB? Owner will just hire who he wants and the cycle continues. Better if the owner would stop being like a Jerry Jones ( look it up if you are too young to know ).

I agree, GMMG will reluctantly scowl to the mic and make the pre-rehearsed rhetoric speach, 'we talked to a number of teams.. blah, blah, blah, but it's hard to make a trade and it's has to make sense...blah, blah, blah' Buckle up , we've got Gillis for a few more years, like or not.

who gives a rat's ass, score some effin goals! Big effin deal, we won't get pushed around, hell that's worth what? oh, ya ZERO POINTS in the standings, ZERO CHANCE of getting out of the first round. GMMG, be proud, your small semi skilled team with so many core players locked to lengthy contracts will bite us in the ass for years to come.

25 Games, no less

Geeez, Is he not a UFA after this year? I heard all the talk about Vannek going to Minni? WTF!

Clutch , Do we really need him? I propose a regulation that in order to post on CDC, one needs at the very least, a half a brain!
