Spezza should not have been expected to be a two-way forward. Karlsson should not be expected to be a great shut down defenceman... Nor sacrifice his greatest gift as the best offensive defenceman in the world...bar none.
You have truly great superstar players and you have to work to build around them. Karlsson playing with crap is stupid. Phillips or Boro? Lol even Methot is a poor partner for him.
We give Spezza Greening and Condra as rookies to end a season? Really 3rd or even 4th liners? We give Spezza Mickalek as his best winger for a few years?
Alfie bailed on this team... Because it was horribly mismanaged.
Anyway... You win by recognizing reality. By making your best assets... Your beat assets. Wanting Karlsson to be Ray Bourque... Doesn't make it happen. Wanting Spezza to be Kopitar... Doesn't make it happen.
Fans are just fans. Make Karlsson or Spezza look bad... They will get out their pitchforks.
Karlsson will beg a trade out of here soon if we don't get him a legit partner.
It is hard to get quality in trade or as a UFA. But you can't do it as a bottom cap team... Worried about insignificant money. Make the Hemsky trade a month earlier...maybe we make the playoffs. Would have been possible... But we needed Oilers to eat salary and wait until the least term is left.
This is no longer a proud franchise. It is becoming a joke. Luckily the team has developed quite a few assets wisely. Have a good bunch of prospects. Have made good trades to get Turris and Ryan.
But we need a legit partner for Karlsson... So he can play like he should. So he can win more Norris trophies and get 80 points a year. Stupidly wanting him to change his game is dumb. As a fan, coach or GM. Methot is a poor partner for him... But Boro or Phillips are jokes. And Methot is injured all year and we so nothing???? It is about $$$$. Murray can't do anything useful.
Fans are mad. It should not be at Karlsson. It should be on Melnyk. It is all at his door.
