Just read some of those tweets.. does that guy even watch hockey? I also had a laugh at one mentioning how hockey growth in AZ will take a hit because of this. What the ****?Roc had a total meltdown tonight. Can't even copy half his tweets here, the filters couldn't handle it..
I'm hoping there will be something to give me a reason to think Barroway isn't preparing the house for sale.

Whatever makes you feel bigger inside.I think it's funny you're wallowing in the misery and realization that the team could be gone only now. Nothing has changed except some under-performers getting kicked to the curb.

Some things have to happen to calm the fanbase down in general.
1. Decent Head Coach - Can't be someone from left field. Most of the up and coming names would fit the bill and even the retreads I'm not interested in. If they strike out like on that famous AGM search I'll gladly join the twitter meltdown
2. Sign/Trade for a goalie - Obviously this has to happen either way but I think things will calm down a bit when they can put some faces into the blank spots right now.
3. Chayka has to have a good draft day. Whether it's just making the picks, getting a fair non-crazy name attached to it deal for Stepan, or some other move. It's too bad I'm working or I'd go to the draft party just to catch the mood of the place
You don't understand and nothing good will come out of me trying to explain it to you. You feel happy so you should just enjoy that feeling.It's your personal crisis. Help me to understand.
Everyone was gung-ho about their chances to stay before the firings. A guy comes in and tries to imprint his vision on the team and you suddenly think that's a sign he's going to move the team. Doan and Smith are nothing in a transaction. Dave Tippett is nothing. This was the 29th ranked team in the league last year, he can't tank it any harder.
You know what would make me a bit worried? If he did nothing. The path of least resistance here would be to do nothing and to carry on with the status quo. Say what you want about the validity of his moves so far - they weren't easy. At all. He didn't have to do any of this. Yet it's what the team needs to shake the funk and move forward with the rebuild.
This has been a great week.
Suddenly he's critical of the team?

I didn't think it would be possible to get rid of Tippet for so little, thought we would be stuck with him for at least a couple years. I'm amazed at what Barroway has done so far.

Already saved the franchise 17 million and yet people swear he's automatically moving the team.
Also a 3M buyout makes me wonder if Barroway threatened to drag it into arbitration on the whole "fired with cause" angle that was rumoured. Drag it out and take your chances with the arbiter and the press or just disappear with this check for $3M and go ride motorcycles, and I'll even say nice things on your way out the door.
Seems awfully odd to just agree to walk away from $17M without some sort of risk involved.
Plus you have to have someone run the Rookie Camp
Now that I think back, didn't Lamb run it last year with DT sitting in the stands?
