You won't lose Necas you'll get something in a trade... or they circle back and sign him now that the forward depth has settled more. Still have to sign a bunch of RFAs...
Blue line is worse for sure though. Can Morrow/whoever fill some big shoes off the bat?
"Why didn't we resign Dougie????"
"Why did we trade Jake Bean????"
"Why did we trade Ned????"
"Why did we sign DeAngelo????"
"The canes are cooked"
"Fire Don"
And then we won the metro and all the people losing their minds forgot about it. I get that emotions run high but this is just how this franchise operates. We have success by thinking outside the box and not doing what everyone expects us to do. People are flipping their **** when we haven't seen the team play a single game.
Everyone was wanted to fire Don in 2021 and now people are doing the same with Tulsky when, it should be said, the season hasn't started. This team made the playoffs in 2019 with 37 year old Justin Williams on our first line, we're not going to collapse into nothing just because we let our aging veterans walk. Patience is a virtue, one that our fanbase lacks, as I've discovered the last 24 hours.
"put Forlsing to waivers"
"trade Luostarinen to FLA"
"Let Trochek walk"
"Give Kotkaniemi huge overpayment"
Yes Carolina is thinking outside the box. Not working so well so far. Forsling was FLA best defender in playoff run and Luostarinen FLA key PK guys and ice in the end of the games. Trocheck have one of NHL best contract atm. Basicly all Waddell trades has left or re-traded. Ofc if you are happy to be playoff team and not real contendor, then good job so far.
