As to the hypothetical would you take Malkin or Duchene question, twitter poll has it at an even 50/50 right now

I used to wonder if I was apathetic, but now I just don't care.

I think the minimum is utilizing his cap space, which means at least 1 trade and/or second/third tier UFA's. He has to sign a few depth/AHL guys and a couple minor moves involving bottom 6/AHL guys.

The cap space is more valuable than most of the tradeable pieces we have.

Failing to land a top-6 forward is a dereliction of duty, as far as I'm concerned

Just some guy on twitter. It seemed reasonable. That’s why I mentioned it

It wasn’t an actual reporter

THE CLASS OF 2019: Congratulations to Guy Carbonneau, Vaclav Nedomansky, Jim Rutherford, Hayley Wickenheiser, Jerry York & Sergei Zubov, who have been elected for induction into the @HockeyHallFame - http://tsn.ca/1.1328391

Gonna be honest, thought Carbonneau was in it. Zubov deserves it, after that, should have been Alexander the Great.

or would short-sightedness in overpaying in price and term or murrency also be a dereliction of duty?

Free agents may be too costly and now one knows what's available on the trade front

No, he's getting paid to make the team better and we've gone from 27th to 31st to whatever it was this year (27th?)

We desperately need talent. Hiding in a bunker with his fingers in his ears whispering "patience" should not be acceptable
