No. We weren't a Hall away from being a contender so dumb trade and we weren't anywhere near being near a team where you trade a top 10 pick for a Stepan. Both dumb trades for this team. Those are trades contenders make. This team hasn't sniffed average, let alone contender. Shouldn't have made the Duclair, Strome or Domi trades either. At least we have a guy at the helm now who has a real iron clad resume. If he screws this thing up, it won't be because he had bad training. The guy couldn't have had a better road map to the get to the job he has now. He's doing it the right way no matter how much pain it's putting us fans through. Hopefully it's worth it.
Nobody is saying it Hall was a difference maker. But seriously...
- Duclair went through 5 teams and 6 head coaches before he caught on.
- Strome still hasn't played up to being a 3OA.
- Domi STILL isn't a world beater either.
All three have played on much better teams. And you think getting rid of them was a mistake??
