It's not anger.
It's pointing out the obvious.
A bad team with the highest payroll and oldest roster in the NHL shouldn't be moving out young, cheap players.
They should be moving out old, expensive players.
It's common sense.
Nah, Holland should be moving out left-handed defencemen who will have value.
Old experienced players with negative value players are PRETTY BAD TRADE IDEAS. Better just wait their contracts until the end. Time will open cap room for future contracts.
Trade mediocre lefties who will have some value out for future asset. Replace them with a right-handed PROSPECT like Hronek and/or Saarijärvi (later Sambrook/Lindström) to build BETTER OVERALL DEFENCE with perfect handness pairs. We have too many lefties, trade them out.
That's what smart GM should do.
