I definitely think Brodie moves. If not him then Stone, but Brodie should be able to net us a lot more of a return. I mean, Adam Larsson got Taylor Hall. Brodie should be able to net us something pretty good. Don't know who we might get back, but there's gotta be some teams who will listen on him.

I think Stone should be moved regardless... His only quality was playing with Brodie and having a big shot. He's scored once this year which is ridiculous, gets bailed out by Kulak a lot, and is blocking opportunity for Andersson who has looked miles better.

If Brodie can fetch a RH top RW or top-15 draft pick then I'm on board but otherwise he's much more valuable to keep. We don't need a big name goalie, I'd love to see Grubauer with Smith 50/50 split next year. If not, I'd settle for Smith + Gillies/Rittich split duties (depending on who plays better at camp).

Friedman this morning joined 960 this morning and claimed that Gully likely NOT fired while Francis thinks he will be. I trust Friedman's sources more... That'll be sure to cause some discussions this summer if true.

I stopped listening to Francis a while ago. Guy has no clue what he's talking about half the time.

But yeah, I think not firing Gully is the right move despite what many people think. Treliving seems to be shouldering a lot of the responsibility himself which is nice to see, and I think the roster will see the big changes. We'll see, though.

i'll take the other side of that. While I agree he's annoying, he often has the inside scoop on things. He's around the team a lot more than Freidman and it seems like someone in the know is talking to him. I think there's a good chance GG is gone this time next week.

Really hard to tell with BT he's good at hiding his intentions. Luckily, I'm sure the announcement isn't too far away with clean-out day on Monday.

I dunno...maybe it was just the parts of the game I watched, but Rasmus looks too slow to keep up in the NHL
he was constantly getting outskated by attacking forwards
