Great move, he needs to keep playing.

Hopefully they can rattle off a couple wins and get into the playoffs

I mean look, if it means you get a 1st rounder in 2018 along with a 2nd and some prospects? You retain half. If you decide to go into a full re-build then you can keep some salaries on the books.

Never discount a team like the Rangers or Devils to bite.

With LE having an NMC its up to him in the end.
Once it changes thats another story for another day.

As for reality our biggest problems & needs r playmakers & a PP QB.
Our wingers have skill & speed but not enough service being set up.
The PP has no threat on the point. When a Tanev gets out there that says a lot.
Edler was solid but his days r done. Too slow to recognize the play & cannot get his shot thru. His poise is stupid when on the PP killing the PP for Ops.

Freudian slip, corrected himself but it was funny to hear.

Glad that TL takes blame with management by not surrounding them with better players. They need to be lower in the lineup and he acknowledged they failed at that

they accepted blame and said they need a coach focused on working with the young players

I hear admitting things is the first step

I won't be either because that's where he belongs until he thinks the game at an NHL level.

I hearya. The NHL was a real eye opener for him. His tools & skillset got him to the NHL but much more to it than that. In his case being in utica getting his game broken down then rebuilding it was necessary but up to him to continue it & have faith in the process & bust his ass. BO is his example & i've no doubts Boeser will also be it.

It will be interesting to see what the next coach does with the same lineup. Maybe Benning should finally decide to keep a line-up designed to limp along or bite the bullet and rebuild like he should have started doing last year?

I don't care what coach walks into that room; they're going to get the same results.

Auction off the Sedin twins and load up on 2018 picks. I'd even move Eriksson for more picks and prospects.
