hammertime Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 So if they did tear it down scorch earth. Would the returns on trading Miller, Bo, Demko at the deadline and draft be enough to rebuild properly. I think potentially yes. In the process there would be enough money off the books to weaponize cap space. We as fans would have to accept a long rebuild as we would be building around this draft. There are a lot of potential franchise centers at the top of this draft and some good D gems hiding in the 2nd round behind the glut of forwards in this draft. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxVerstappen33 Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 Maybe we are missing Alex Chiassion more than we thought 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would signify a reset/rebuild/ (catch phrase of the week ) I am delusional obviously We made our bed with the OEL trade. We slept in it with the Miller extension. A rebuild is gonna be very tricky. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then the next day Allvin did an interview (called very quickly, which was likely directed by the owner) to “walk back” what JR just said about rebuilding. IMHAO JR knows we need to rebuild but our owner is fighting against it happening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ktcy2 Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 Markstrom has always been the better goalie. We picked demko over him only due to the age thing. I mean demko has always been overhyped by this market. He is not bad, but has not really been top of the league like markstrom or luongo etc. he is struggling big time now and we just have to go with Martin for now. There is no other way. If Martin is the starter now so be it 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually TDL deals are for futures (picks + prospects). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ktcy2 Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 I think maybe we need to stop blaming the defense for a bit. Defense sucks I get it. But but … but… demko……. I mean let’s talk about maybe freaking goaltending?! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’d be a full blown mutiny in the fanbase if we get Gaudreau’ed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Martin is the starter now so be it For Demko its a rough patch i believe, like when he first had trouble getting consistency in his game to get to the NHL. Markstrom tires himself out with how much he moves in the net and like Luongo is awful playing the puck and gets mental blocks where its the case of first shot goes in or there are teams/buildings where he basically can't play because its an automatic L. Demko seems to be telegraphing his saves this year which is odd like he's being too technical and wanting to make the exact right moves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re not gonna see a rebuild. Would agree. Can't see them going into a rebuild. They also seem to blame in part Boudreau so they'll probably want to see what they can do under another coach and different defensive structure.
