The more I think about it the more infuriated I get that Q and Ulf are back. Need a complete overhaul of the D system. Maybe Colliton can show them how it is done.

This is the real issue. I can't express the appreciation I have for Q and the 3 cups he had very much to do with (remember that record in games 4 thru 7) of any series.
Simply put though, it was time to go this past year. The team is a bit of a mess for the first time in a decade.
Even though they get killed here, they guys in charge aren't complete idiots about this stuff. My guess is they really like Colliton, but think its too early to bring him up (like most of his players, he needs at least another year down in Rockford honing his skills). I expect Q to make it thru another disaster of a season or if he doesn't, and interim guy, and this time next year, Colliton will be the guy.
When Q gets moved out, I'd trade everyone but Kane and start over. They aren't winning another cup with the core in place. Does no good to finish in the middle of the pack year after year.
I got to see 3 cups, never thought that could've happened. I'm content, can take losing for a few years if you are rebuilding. Can't watch all these guys get old, slow, and ineffective all at the same time. Dump who you can, trade for young guys and picks.
