" Nor do i Care since that's not the point"
Seems like the point is to build a non competitive team then.
The 'nor do i care' are the actual trades proposed. Anyone not clouded by fierce reactivity from their fanbase fuel can see I'm just pushing people out of the lineup to see what remains, letting the fog dissipate. If no one grabs Hoffman off waivers, then it'll be AHL or 13th forward or McDonald's drive-thru cashier. That's fine.
The point was to get a look of the skeleton for the following yeat once the deadwood is out.
I whole heartedly agree with you, 100%, that this is a non competitive team.
The goal should have been to make it as horrid as possible this year. Not the following one.
I would have started Xhekaj, Harris AND Slafkovsky, together, in the AHL.
Let them gain some experience.
And patch those holes with dead wood, as to plummet down the standings, to get a whiff of a top-8 draft pick.
But that's me. Not trying to suggest I know what I'm doing man.
Just an average fan that doesn't wish to become another unpaid, way-to-qualified fan who is wasting too much energy.
Peace man
