It's still a double standard regarding "wasting assets" which we all hated gmtm for: the 2nd rounders for gorges, dlo and Fasching vs. 3 thirds for beaulieu, scandella and Vesey

It's better than the gmtm moves, but in retrospect we'd be better off having not done at least 2 of 3

Does everything have to be a home run?
I’ve been critical of Botts at times too,
but are u not happy with the moves this offseason?
Are we not MUCH better off than when he took over?

U can either keep b!tchong up a storm IN JULY,
OR
realize that Botts has the NEAR future looking really nice
AND
be HOPEFUL about this season in the meantime

Up to u i guess

That is a pretty great rumor. I hope it’s correct!

I know the royal blue will look good and be great but the old goat head will give me chills. That’s the jersey I grew up with.

Yellow is THE WORST as a principal color on a sports uniform
- Der Kaiser

Nashville perfected the Reebok edge template when they went full yellow and they pulled it off, especially when they changed their helmet to gold.

Adidas ruined what was a slightly above average but excellent use of yellow uniform.

Jcrag is wrapped around the axle of 3 seasons being enough for a GM to ice a competitive team.
I don't think he is widely off the mark there in general.

That said, there were some issues along the way he had to deal with that set the timetable back...
1- late hire in his first offseason handcuffed him a bit for that season and he expressed early on that he would not be very active the first season, rather use it as an evaluation period. That marginalized the impact he would have in year 1, right, wrong or indifferent, it did.
2- Kane pissing off Kim and Terry made the subsequent trade value received less than optimal. It is what it is. It didn't turn out horrific, and actually he made it work with packaging Guhle and the SJ 1st for Montour.
3- ROR lamenting himself out of town and pussing off Kim and Terry forcing a trade before the $7.5m Bonus Payment ... he did really Bone Us
4- Housley becoming completely useless...was it Jason's selection, or Pegula's? Who knows, but a big miss for sure either way.

Yet last offseason he turned over the roster rather significantly. This year he has bolstered the middle 6 and D rather significantly and does appear to have a trade or 2 or 3 left to make if he so choses.
But as of now there is still a bunch of deadwood remaining that will be addition by subtraction if he can unload these scrubs...if not 90% are gone after next season anyway when the real fruits if his labor should be on full display.
We shall see.

Far from a finished product
But it seems pretty obvious that Botts does have us headed in the right direction

That’s my overall take anyways

I was up near Parry Sound this weekend and a six of Molson was $13.50 US. True story.

We saw a moose on the road to the lake (also true) and the sumbich tried charging us five bucks just for looking at him.

Yeah that pea meal stuff is gross. F Canada.

You know the word that describes a person who disregards the values of the community that surrounds him, hewing only to his own standard of conduct?

SOCIOPATH. Go ahead, you’re big on dictionaries. Look it up.

Seems odd that a store in Canada, selling you Canadian beer, would price it in US currency.

“Odd” is all I’m saying. Just “odd.”

- Der Kaiser

The price was in Canadian funds, but the store offers no exchange so everything is at par.

The only thing I saw in Canada that tips is the canoe I was paddling. Yankee go home.
