Clearly not.
Fire him and replace him.

Fire Benning.
Trade Gudbranson.
Sign Franson.

Usually like your comments. But no, please stay away from Franson. Every team has passed on him, including Analytic teams like the Coyotes. Yes trade Gudbranson.

Not as much as we should, if Ottawa passes us we're a bottom 3 team

Seabrook is a Healthy Scratch.

Just $42 million left on his contract

Ottawa is tarting to put it together, I expect us to slip into 28th and stick there until Bo gets back and likely beyond. Hoping they get full value for Gudbranson, I'm open to him staying but not at the price he's going to want. Happy fro Goldy to have his moment with OV tonight, after we get Svechnikov and Tree we are going to be little russia instead of little Sweden

We need a big guy on D, for whatever reason(s) it didn't work out. Thats why i'm okay having Andrew Nielsen as part of the package coming back. I think Gudbranson prefers the east coast.

Kenny Holland is shining up his shoes in preparation for our GM job. JB will moved to head of scouting.

book it.

Big mistake, aside for Loui we're just getting out of long term bad deals.

1) 4 games above .500 with Horvat healthy

2) That was despite injuries to Edler/Tanev/Gudbranson/Sutter/Dorsett so it's not like the team was fully healthy and was benefiting from just being lucky.

3) Goaltending has let them down, but even mediocre NHL goalies should put up a .910sv% so things will get better

4) Yes, lack of depth is still an issue, but this will no longer be an issue next year with Juolevi, Gaudette, Pettersson, Dahlen and potentially our 2018 1st round pick all joining the NHL/AHL next season. Potentially Demko joins Marky in a 1A/1B type of role.

Same as last year, hence the same result.

I would like Nielsen, seems like a good prospect.

I honestly don't understand the Holland love.

Horvat was the back breaker, they held up just fine with the others out. They need another top 6 C to hold down the fort. EP and Gaudette are on the way. Maybe even Tavares.

The uprising is coming faster than the blind haters are willing to admit/realize.
