CBJ is run by the guy that built the Blues. He isn't going to make a trade to just make sure they make the playoffs. He is trying to do what he did for the Blues.
I dont' know where Mouslon/Vanek are going. They could be coming to us, but the point is are odds of making the playoffs pretty close to a coin flip. We haven't had a winning streak yet this season and the team is due one.
I'd put Pete up there with Brent Sutter at this point. I doubt it very much that he got offers after failing in Calgary. Made the playoffs 2 out of 5 seasons as a head coach. Pete will have made them once in 6 seasons, but a SCF appearance in his only postseason.
Like I said, I could see a team that we've been killing since he's been here, taking him on as a head coach if any team in the NHL.
