but real talk. Still see a bunch of fire Sakic and Bednar talk on twitter the past few days. I thought about it and realistically I dont think they should do either.

Setting what Sakic has done...brining in Nieto, Barberio, Andrighetto...getting Jost signed. I think we are starting to see what the Avs identity is going to be moving forward and it aligns with what Bednar wants to do.

Those 3 guys. Jost, Compher, Lindholm, Rocco, Siemens....they are Bednar style players and Avs have looked like such a better team since they have brought in smaller guys with skill and 2 way ability, and with all the players, they can skate with speed.

Give the 2 another chance to get this team turned around. I feel more comfortable with Sakic and Bednar knowing that speed and skill is the new identity of the avs and not the big cycle monsters that Roy wanted to play.

You're full of poop and should be ashamed. You sound like a 2007 Leafs fan with actual good players on the team instead of rubbish.

I agree. Coach and Sakic will be back. I don't think Sakic has done a terrible job with what he was given when he took the job fully. He's had to basically build up a non existing prospect pool through the draft, then start developing them. Though I do believe this summer and 2018 tdl and draft will define him aso a gm. Can he make the nessary moves to make this team and organization better? He has the prospects now to start tinkering a bit. He has a core that is what it is, with new guys coming in. Can he move 9 for a good return? What about 92 or 6? I think he can. He just as to do it.
