Botterill is in a really good spot, cap space, assets, problem is, is he capable enough to do the right thing.

Maybe i didnt word it correctly.

If he doesnt make a big trade in the next few days, I think the ownership has put the freeze on him.

He gone

- Boss34

This has to be our biggest fear as fans. The Pegulas are not hockey people. Or football people. They are money people. Spreading themselves thin running 2 pro franchises, record labels, meal prep services, etc. They should never freeze one of their GMs. Better off firing him.

Why retain Money, who cares if he plays somewhere else. He wasn't helping us.

Good chance if 5 teams are interested, 5 GMs knew there was a good chance that it played out this way. Why trade for him and give up anything, even a late round pick, when you can have him for nothing and pay him less than half his retained salary?

2.5 mil prorated is more than the league minimum, what 750 grand? I don't think you can throw this on JB no matter how much you want to.

You are right. A GM with the ability to turn assets into more assets is overrated.

Like a 4th for Scandella? Marc Bergevin must have a different market.

When he signs for less than 2.5m, are you going to retract your rant?
