Sujet: I Hate This Team
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HadesOfSoCal</b></div><div>I understand rebuilding, it can suck. But Bob Murray does it terribly. He doesn't trade for young assets, he brings in old useless 4th liners and doesn't give time to young players who deserve enough. Comtois should definitely be in the lineup over someone like ****ing Rowney or Deslauriers. And why do we still have Manson? He should be gone by now. There were plenty of teams interested but Bob Murray is such an idiot and thought it would be worth it to keep him over guys like Montour and Theodore.

Obviously it's painful to watch a team rebuild, but when the team does absolutely nothing and makes their fans rot, it's absolutely unenjoyable. I'd rather be a mediocre wildcard team for a while than sit and wait for 5+ years to actually watch some enjoyable ****ing hockey. At this point, we're watching paint dry. We're losing fans and losing money. Murray needs to go and Madden needs to take the reigns.

Gibson's prime is going to be wasted on a team who's purposely sucking unless Murray does something smart ( which guess what, he won't )</div></div>

Respectfully I am going to disagree. You don't want MC playing the role of Rowney or Deslauriers. If they are not in a position to play to their strengths then they should be playing elsewhere. There are roles on the roster that need to be filled. Not everyone can be a scorer. Nor do we want our future scorers to develop the habits of a grinder. Its the same reason we have Manson. We need guys to play those defensive roles. I imagine that we waived Djoos over Larsson specifically because we needed to keep someone who can play PK. There is a reason why a team like Toronto struggles as much as they do. I doubt you would see much change in the direction of the team once Madden takes over either. Also looking at the Vegas expansion draft in hindsight is the epitome of a poor assessment.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>themarast</b></div><div>Anaheim dont need them, and i think Edmonton or Van are not willing to loose 1rnd pick, anaheim need space on rosters for Drysdale, Comtois and Zergas.... dont need to fill that place with average players like Rowney or Terry</div></div>

1. Terry is highly thought of in the Org and many feel he could become an impact player.
2. Teams need players like these. You can't ice an entire team of kids. These players have roles and you don't want the kids you mentioned playing those roles.
3. Even if the Ducks didn't need them doesn't mean they should settle for picks because the others teams don't feel like giving up first round picks to deal with their cap dumps. The Ducks are not in the business of spending money to help other teams with their cap issues. And giving up players with value for second rounders who have a low chance of actually being NHL players doesn't change that. Sorry, but the Ducks do not touch these.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>csick</b></div><div>Sergachev can play both sides and is a huge upgrade on Manson. He’s a legit #2 Dman right now and I think he’s better than Fowler. As for Killorn he’s a 50pt winger and Cirelli is a 50pt elite 2 way centre</div></div>

I honestly don't watch enough Tampa games to really argue the point but looking at the numbers to me it looks like Serg is sheltered in Tampa. Something the Ducks would struggle to do. He only had 34 pts last year getting PP time with the 5th best PP in the league. Got less PK time per game than Luke Schenn. Serg had the 4th best SAT % and the most Offensive zone starts of any D who played at least 30 games for Tampa. His PPG is about equal to Fowler who had similar numbers on a much worse team. As for the other 2 that is fair but I would still consider Killorn a downgrade on wing. He doesn't have the upside that Rakell has and its not like Rakell is bad defensively. Like I said Cirelli is the big get but the other pieces don't really make sense to me. Maybe just leave it at Cirelli and Killorn for Rakell and Steel?
