The plan is basically what I was expecting, except he excluding the FA for acquiring a top-6 guy. This would mean he is looking for a young player than paying for older players. The defensemen in LaCombe and Thrun are two that could be traded off as we're stacked on the left side now that we have Fleury in tow. I think D Ian Moore might be turning heads too.
I thought he would go into the failures of the PP, but instead we get that we're not drawing enough PP's. That's cool and all, but why were we incapable of putting the puck in the back of the net on the PP is a bigger concern to me?
The middle aged veterans must embrace the youth because they're now the future. Otherwise, we get a Drew Doughty response about the youth group. heh heh heh To be fair, the Kings' vet did carry the team in Kopitar, Doughty, and Brown in scoring as they were their top-3. Our veterans weren't so embracing of carrying the team.
