Exactly. How anyone can see differently is insane. I really don’t know how any of that could be false.

We’re done until we hire someone new. I hope I’m wrong at that this post doesn’t age well, but pack it the fúck in.

He’s done some good things and bad things like any GM. Yeah trotz was his best achievement but then he fired him. I wasn’t as shocked as everyone else I think trotz’s message stopped getting across to the team. Maybe that would’ve changed maybe not. With that said the thought that Lameriello is sitting on his hands(not saying that to anyone directly)is crazy. You can bet your arse he’s trying to do something but I’m not sure if he’ll get it done? Hopefully he does and it’s a good move that doesn’t kill us long term wise.

I know St Louis wants Tkachuk but will need to shed some salary to get him signed. I would love to get Tkachuk but that to me is a pipe dream. I think the best we can hope for is Tarasenko. He said he would play for us and he wants out. Let’s see how desperate St. Louis gets to dump salary and how much cheaper we can get tarasenko for now. We’ll have to find a way to move some salary to another team because St Louis isn’t taking it on it would defeat the purpose. This sounds like the most likely positive thing to come out of the offseason if anything happens.

He needs at least one partner that's willing to be reasonable.

He’s going to have a hard time moving Bailey out. The most likely player that I imagine a team would be more inclined to want would be Beau.

Must have been during the Gallof days. That’s the only time I’ve been banned. And I really tried with other writers.

Wow. Lack of Lou really getting the buzz going. Such a great off-season thus far. Exciting times for us Isles fans.

He’s a douche. His best move, he already undone in Trotz. Free agency is a time to reignite fan interest. I hate how secret he is. Sorry Lou lovers. I’m sick of this D-Bag.

PS if he does happen to land something significant I will toot the flute and swallow the music…but this guy hasn’t done poop other than JGP at this point, so I’m not expecting much.

Hopefully I have to eat my words.

Funny how you bag on Lou and call him a douche but then you’re ready to jump back on the bandwagon if he does make a move.
By the way, he’s gotten several players to sign discounted contracts, he’s brought stability and respectability to the organization.
Has he done anything this off-season? Not that we’re aware of, but we don’t know Jack sh!t about what is going on, what trades he’s tried to make or who he’s tried to sign. For all we know, he’s got Kadri signed and is trying to make a trade to be cap compliant. He could also be sitting under a palm tree in the Bahamas.

And there in lies the problem, especially for us fans. It’s called communication.

No, one was with Ben the day most of the posters here got banned for posting boobies. The others were with Dan.

It's certainly frustrating, but he's doing what he thinks is best for the team.

I’ll also add when two sides want to make something happen in any league it generally finds a way to happen. By all accounts Tkachuk wants to go there and St Louis of course wants him. Hopefully we can get involved with this and come out of it with a good player.
