Thing is...if we don't go all the way this year...and miss the playoffs next year...what kind of redemption are we talking about? Is it really too far fetched to think that we might not make it next year?
Also, well his trades are paying out this year for sure. Most of his moves are too. Yet, while hockey isn't just a 1-guy effort, Eller won a Cup....Sergachev won a Cup, and if Vegas wins...Pacioretty would too.
In return, still active, we have Harris from the Eller deal (not directly but we used 1 pick to get him), Drouin, Suzuki and Norlinder that we got from trading our round 2 pick (which we could have picked Fagemo). So as of today, we did have some return. But clearly, the guys that went away were ready for immediate results.
