This is supposed to be for FANS, not whinging turds. Blow it all up, trade everyone away, bad owner, bad mngt, bad coaching, bad players, it is all just a keyboard ego-trip. You have ruined a good thing. Lol. Am I not allowed to be disappointed and still be a fan? Our neighbours in the standings are Philadelphia, Montreal, and San Jose. None of which are expected to make the playoffs. Imagine being realistic about the state of our team, and still being a fan. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grandmaster Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 If ownership ponies up, buyout OEL or retain 3M on a trade. Give Myers his bonus at the end of the year and trade his 1M salary to a bottom team. This opens the door to two new young top 4 defenders to join our team. One of which should be attained from a Bo trade. Maybe we luck out where Schenn plus can get us the other good young defender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn’t even entertain free agency. Blows my mind. Him with Hughes would have been amazing and cost effective I just cantttt Swedish Mafia really crapped the bed on selling him Vancouver in free agency there Between that and be management missing out on Marino... Imagine how much better we'd look with Hughes, Larson and OEL, Marino as our top 4... Edited January 9, 2023 by aGENT 1 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myers isn't a bad player in a vacuum, just no fit in our top 4 with the guys we have on the left. He's just an ill fitting chaos giraffe in the way of us improving unfortunately.

I don’t mind OEL for around 2.5 M. Myers seems to have completely forgotten how to play defense, regardless of what Hoover he’s presently residing in.

They're still good players but they need defensive D partners to play with, to get the most out of them (and more than one or two forwards who actually back check and support the puck). We only have one Schenn (who's playing over his head already) to spread around to three offensive D. We have a fit/roster construction issue, not a lack of talent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're all offensive leaning D (of varying degrees) who need to free wheel with the puck to be successful. To do so, they need a reliable partner that can cover them while they're doing so. Playing them with eachother will only lead to failure. As it has. Edited January 9, 2023 by aGENT 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughes-Larsson OEL-Marino Dermott-Schenn i would have been very okay with this unit since myers would have been able to trade as alll the insiders say. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zerofaith Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 (edited) Here’s a suggestion : play 8 d so when OEL or Myers is having a garbage game we can at least bench them run with 10 forwards or 3 lines one grinder/Pk line One defensive checking line one pure offensive line spot in the 10th forward as BB sees fit surely it could not be worse than what’s been on display Kuzy - Petey - miky (offensive line) Millsy -Bowie- Boesy (checking line) lazy - study - joshy. (Energy pk line) woody + 8 d Edited January 9, 2023 by Zerofaith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
