Sounds like experience he could use to manage the salary cap?
- golfingsince


Cap allocation could definitely improve.
Tbh honest very poorly set up as we stand.
Very important to let vets move on or retire.

Aren’t the Habs in the playoffs? Didn’t they have a covid outbreak? Don’t they play in our division?

I guess using COVID as an excuse for why we’re a poopty team doesn’t cut it.

JB will certainly use that at the post mortem, if he still has a job.

It was one guy. But yeah, their schedule after that was brutal.

I’ve been working a bunch. The weather here actually started to warm up so I’m in a great mood.

I just can’t believe after so many years of the same I come in and read the same reasoning from some folks about why the team sucks and it’s never that the GM isn’t capable of putting together a proper roster.

The truth is, he made the playoffs with a largely inherited albeit declining roster in his first year. Last year’s mirage might never have happened with an uninterrupted season as the team was running out of gas before the break.

Those are facts.

No it doesn't compare but don't miss an opportunity to hate on the Canucks.

Though funny the Habs, with barely any players effected and games postponed, used their revised schedule as a reason for all the losses.

Canucks season didn't suck because of Covid alone. It's just a factor.

I know, that's why I started posting chapters of Moby D!ck, something has to change. I would have much preferred Tom Gaglardi as the owner but those aren't our choices.

It’s called a realistic view. They aren’t good enough. It’s a professional league, there are no participation medals.

Mcdavids stats are inflated for sure. 4 of the top 6 in scoring are from the north.
