To accomplish what?
The reality is, Munchkin. There's a core in place. Pettersson has proven he can be a 100+ point player. No FO in hockey history would give up on a player like Pettersson, at his age, just because he's having a down year. Nor would they give up on a core with very good to elite players in every position on it while it's still relatively young. It just isn't reality.

I understand the whole "either be really bad or really good" mantra, but you have to make small positive steps sometimes. Can't always be Vegas and come out of the gate a contender with a core.

It's very possible this core is stale and always will be, but the FO needs to exhaust all of their efforts to make it work first, and that's going to take a few years.

Cole looked good for the first 10 games of the season but then the injuries hit and he was asked to play a bigger role. Hes 34 years old and his body can’t handle it properly anymore. Zadorov will probably help with that

Imagine if Petey played like this after signing for $12M

How can you be this inconsistent? He’s not NOT trying either

Having Myers doesn’t help as well. Really looking forward to the day we get rid of Myers

Well the good thing is if he plays like this for the rest of the season, we might just get a bargain deal

Also he is trying, is just that he's falling down wayyyy more than his rookie season and his decision making has been every slow recently
