Because in a similar way, this group is unwilling to let the team take a step backwards. This management group is just way more analytical than Benning, who mostly shot from the hip. I don't buy their statements that it was impossible to make moves. I think they had very different beliefs on the market value of the players, held out for top dollar, didn't get it, and thats all she wrote. Plenty of other teams were able to shed cap, or acquire RHD, or move high end players on expensive contracts, etc. Im so jealous of what Montreal was able to pull off. They're going to be so good in a couple years.

Honestly it’d be absurd to expect kuzmenko to take a discount, why would he? He’s been here a few months, and he’s missed several years of nhl earnings. He can, should, and will grab as big a bag as he can, from whichever team is willing to pay him. -

He does deserve better. He’s being played 13 mins a night (surplus of scoring wingers). Not sure how much more we expect from him on that limited deployment. -
Obviously Boeser and Garland underperforming is on them not being better than Miller/Horvat/Petey/Mikheyev/Kuzmenko, but it’s also on management for loading up on scorers. 2 of our scorers we’re going to get squeezed out by managements decision to blow our remaining cap space on Mikheyev without moving out one of our wingers. as a result, there’s not enough ice time to go around for Boeser. He’s not going to look good playing 13 mins, as Dries’ winger. We’re probably going to get scraps for Boeser, but wouldn’t have if management actually focused on our defence and penalty kill instead of just loading up on top-6 forwards. Very poorly executed offseason.
