Fire Chiarelli.

Fire Chiarelli.

How is he managing the cap here? Boston literally fired him because he ruined it. He learned nothing.

Brutal.

 

[Mcwinner]

Give Chia an extension.

We were a top 10 team with Kris Russell playing top 4 minutes. He's been very healthy with very few major injuries - which what did in Ference.

Finally, Russell will be in the last year of his contract at the same age that Ference was just starting his. It's hardly that big an anchor. O

He missed 14 games last year, 20 the year before, 14 games 2 years before that. The injuries are starting to pile up and with his style of play, it's not going to get better as he goes deeper into his 30s.

I just don't like his game either. He plays hard but besides shot blocking, he's average to below average everywhere else and is a possession black hole. This also handcuffs Chia from adding another top 4 Dman unless you want a $4M Russell on your bottom pairing and Nurse and/or Benning in the press box or traded.

$4Mx4 for Russell will be an anchor by next summer.

Other move coming I suspect is moving down in draft to dump pouliot.

Cap hell incoming. In July when Draisaitl and McDavid are signed.

Brutal.

He'll trade Sekera or something because he's a ****ing moron. This is unbelievable.

 

[McAsuno]

Fire Chiarelli.

Sigh lol.

McDavid still has a year on his ELC.

How? McDavid's wouldn't kick in right away.

Not for at least another year.

But we have, what, 2.6 million more in sweet, sweet Eberle savings. I was told that we'd be able to do so much fun stuff with the money saved on Eberle's contract.

I think he will start our new arena on fire while high on meth and dancing around naked. That's my hunch.

 

[North]

Sigh lol.

You would think this team hadn't made the playoffs with a 103 point season.

 

[Hopelesslucicfan]

Russell would be fine with me if not for sekera, but with both of them in the top 4 you don't have any true offensive d men who can move the puck

 

[SDig14]

McDavid still has a year on his ELC.

Hysteria leads to just wild typing. Step away from your keyboards.

 

[Glass Eyes]

So we trade a 50 point winger to sign a 30 year old left handed guy to play THE RIGHT SIDE who put up 13 points last year and got horribly out attempted while he's on the ice?

Yeah, Chiarelli is a ****ing idiot.

 

[Weitz]

Right. Because you can add a bunch of players when you have a $12-14 million dollar contract kicking in plus a bunch of others to resign.

Combine that with the $3.25M from Ference coming off the books and you'll be able to afford a pretty decent player.

B-b-but he's a warrior! It's telling when that's the only positive trait that people can name off when describing him.

Don't worry, the Penguins won the Cup with no name wingers so surely we can too.

I'm approaching this neutrally. We're not even on draft day/free agency yet. Until we reach training camp with the exact roster, I'm holding my comments. All of this 'Fire Chiarelli' crap reminds me of the Larsson for Hall trade (which I was a part of). Some people need to relax
