For me, this isn't the Pirates where they pocket their money and put one of the worst lineups on the field year in and year out with one of the lowest payrolls.
They spend to the cap most years these days. They needed change because the team was straying away from their identity forged through mostly players of the previous managements tenure. Once those started to fade away from the UFA process the tenure of Shero hasn't replaced those with the right assets/parts. Shero gets a little repreive from me with the huge addition of injuries to it's best players that has wiped out half of their chances since the cup, but the drafting and sometimes sitting on his hands at the deadline, being too safe, and not taking enough chances are what has me wanting him gone.
When you have the best two players in the world every single season should be seen as a go for it all with no holding back. Those cost were not any cheaper the year they got Iginla, Morrow, Jokinen, and Murray from the season before he did nothing while they had a hudge need for defense help.
I'll be fine if the new GM feels DB is his best coaching option moving into next season.
And...yes, I will be watching them and buying products as long as my family needs don't get in the way.
If you choose to leave, not watch the games while they're making changes, all the power to you.
See ya.
