That's all fine and good when you have a complete team to start with, then it's ok to gamble on a defenseman late in the 1st, because (frank) it, you already have Perry, Getzlaf, Kesler, Rakell, Fowler, Vatanen and Lindholm. But if you're just trying to fill out a team that has holes everywhere the year or 2 after trading away a player if he strung together 3 good games then it becomes much harder to potentially throw picks away on a defenseman that might make your team in 4 years.

Why would I need the lesson, Im not the one who hired him
- Sabresfan-365


No, but you did believe him.

And I'm starting to believe "he got fired because he stood by Bylsma", so I think Pegula was going to give him this year to get moving in the right direction, other than just not trying to lose gaining 27 points.

Update:

Wings - Still 0.

Single serving alcohols - Still 2

- Der Kaiser[still Bud (frank)ing lights].


I hope all of you are having better weekends than me. I would bet big money you are.


Wings - 5
pieces of pizza - 2
Franks - lots
bleu cheese - more

So, not bad overall.

I didn't believe he would do it because he was a draft guy at heart, figured if he was going to speed things up it would be by using extra picks to move up. I didnt think he could build a contender overnight, he apparently did.

because of the square brackets he used in his last fake url. It confused the HTML. Notice how there's no "-BeedyEyedDouche" at the bottom of the quote?

If you delete just the brackets in the quote your post will be normal.

You and Broads were railing on him because he said it didn't need to take 5 years. And so after 1 year of actually trying you were willing to write him off. Yes the defense is very bad, and yet, somehow not the worst when it comes to where it counts, goals against.

Most people knew that was bullpoop and that every successful rebuild takes 5-7+ years.

. I dont count it as one year. He started building the moment he pulled off the poorly timed Kane trade which involved multiple assets and draft picks being moved in an effort to land players in their prime in hope of speeding up the rebuild. (yea yea i know tank bogosian worse blah blah whatever).

So from that point thats three deadlines, two drafts and two off seasons.

I call bs on that last bit. Not directed at you but every post in here the day after the kane trade was just different variations of saying picks are bad and trading them for in prime players is better. Technically true, but when you do that and the results land you 1 ish good player..well...

Im well aware the rebuilds take time, and yet he chose not to take his time he started building before he even had eichel picked. I didnt give him one year, he gave himself a short leash when he sold off futures for presents. You cant do that and not expect a huge amount of criticsm when the team is still bad years after these moves were made.

And im sorry but in an era of puck moving defencemen having your 3 major adds be Gorges, Kulikov and Bogosian is inexcusable.

I don't get how this is even a debate anymore.

He tried to speed it up the moment he drafted Eichel, and traded for ROR and Lehner, and had two bottom 10 finishes with his core after.

He sucked. End of story

See, that's the problem, you think this is his core. Sure it's most of it, but it's still probably 3 players shy of where he wanted to be.
