Sujet: Botts has to go in Buffalo
Im not sure what botterills plan is. I think that even if you throw the ror trade out, he has been bad. He wants to improve the player development in the organization, which has been nonexistent, except we still arent developing talent. Rochester has not won a playoff game under his direction, and the high value young players like thompson and mittelstadt have not shown any separation from their ahl peers. There is a gaping hole in our bottom 9, specifically at center and rw, but offensively the whole bottom 9 is a non contributor. The penalty kill has been awful, at least this season, which is where you could look for some hidden production from your bottom 9. The pp is also not good, but there is talent at the top end of the roster that should make that better at some point. I dont think the stockpiling of rhd was actually the plan, players were acquired as they became available with the idea that some could be moved to fill some huge holes up front. This has not worked, the market has not appeared for league average rhd, which has compounded the problem. Nobody else has cap space so even a 3 or 4 million dollar contract cant be moved to many teams without some cap coming back. Throw in players like sheary and vesey who were targeted to help on offense, and i feel like times up. Like i said, i dont think there was a plan, if there was it was terrible, and the results speak for themselves. I dont think the fans are mad, i think they dont care anymore. And thats where the owner has to decide enough is enough. Something has to change, botterill isnt the guy to make the changes, the rest is obvious.
