lol trading a pick for pitlick, just so ryan can sign cheaper with our rivals? Overypaying another left hand shot with a career high of 36 points? what about this is good?Tre continues to do a good job. From the ED to draft day to a couple of small trades to his UFA signings, so far so good. And I don't think he is finished yet. He still has about 12M is cap space and I think he may have a trade in the works.
The question for me is… we fire treliving. Who replaces him and who is an upgrade in that department? Unless a really good GM becomes available I don’t know if there is anyone who I would like to bring in. Ideally you try and bring Iggy in for that role and hope he takes to it like Yzerman, Sakic, and Guerin. Would need to have him learn as AGM for awhile. I don’t know if Conroy would be that guy in the meantime, but I think it would be his job if Tre gets fired
It would be just like the old days, back in 2003.
Conroy would become the GM for a few years and Iginla the AGM then Conroy passes the GM position to Iginla. It's poetry... except it's sports.
In fairness Ryan probably didn't want to return after being waived to start the season when his play in his first two years here didn't support that at all.lol trading a pick for pitlick, just so ryan can sign cheaper with our rivals?

Also we do not have 12m in cap space. We pretty much have none after signing Dube, Zadorov, Kylington, Valimaki and a backup goaltender
edit: just seeing the Vladar trade now. Good pickup for a cheap backup goalie, but still wont have much cap after signing those players
All I know is if we don't get Eichel (which we will), he should be fired.Why would we fire him when we’re getting Eichel?
Only acceptable outcome at this point.All I know is if we don't get Eichel (which we will), he should be fired.
Burke f***ed this team over so hard, he blew his deadline as GM, he took Macdonald over Demko, he blew hiring a new GM. The guy just sank this team.Why is this charlatan still employed
Darry Sutter is already the GM
