I don’t see any other option for Shanahan. He can’t let Dubas continue to destroy the roster/cap/draft, never mind fix it.

Dubas clearly couldn’t fix himself a sandwich.

- DrunkenCanuck


Dubas is doing decent imo. He has built up a team of talented players to start. Now he has to fill in the supporting cast moving forward. What he does tonight and tomorrow and moves this off season will be what he should be judged upon. Got the talent part, now fill in the pieces Dubas. If you (frank) up then ill criticize..

I’m being traded to the Canes, along with "annoyed", "Max", "UG", "CKOUG" and a 5th round pick for a 6th rounder.

I kind of agree... but I'm trending toward indifference - rather than disgust.

Those of us who remember knew by 77-78 that Ballard was out of his mind, he really was Donald Trump before Trump. But we liked the players for the most part - who for the most part played hard - even when they knew Ballard was going to do the "next stupid thing"...

What I feel is different now is the entitlement of the players - at least some of them - and arrogance of the Junior Juice.

I thought and still believe that it was the right move to can Babcock. But the messages that the management is sending to the players about "their accountability" are a joke.

Whomever made the decision for the players to have today off... the media should be asking that question. They won't ... but they should.

Keefe's comments about the lack of maturity... it isn't just the roster that seems to be suffering from that.

At this point, Dubas should be praying that the CAP goes up by 5-8 million this summer... otherwise we're looking at the same underwhelming pile of crap again next year.

Zero accountability from the media too: they never ask tough questions, and they're just as smug and entitled as the players are.

What if next year it's relatively the same and they win the presidents trophy? Going to still call it a pile of crap?

Who cares about that? Plenty of teams (including last year's TBL) have been regular season darlings and crumbled in the off-season.

This team lacks warriors. It's really that simple.

How dare anyone discuss Fred's knack for allowing soft goals while the team poops the bed.

Should only be discussing his HOF eligibility. 🤷‍♂️

Sorry our opinions differ 🤷🏻‍♂️

Never said he was HOF, but I’m pretty confident every goalie in the league would have similar stats behind this group.

Lehner and Hellebuyck are doing fine getting more quality chances.

Canes say they've already sold over 3000 David Ayres shirts since last night.
- BINGO!

Is it wrong that I want one?
