To be honest the best that we can hope for right now is to stay competitive in the MacDerby. Eakins & MacT getting fired is waaaayyyyyy too much to ask for so trading Perron is a step in the right direction. Think of it as trading Perron for MacDavid.Yes, let's trade one of the few people in the entire franchise that still wants to win and actually has some idea of what has to be done.
MacT never really had a legacy to begin with. He was a good checking line center for a couple of years on cup winning teams but that's not the makings of a legacy. IMO he was 1% of the reason we won 5 cups. When you compare his contributions to those of Kurri, Coffey, Ranford, Fogolin, Lowe, Huddy, Gretzky, Messier, Simpson etc, etc you get the picture. Guys like McLelland, Hunter and Lumley have as much of a legacy as MacT here.I hope Lowe and MacT ruin their legacies to the point where this is what people remember them for.
KLo has a legacy here but he's just above "supporting cast" level. Guys like Rod Langway and Mark Howe were better players than Lowe but they never played on a team with Messier, Gretzky, Anderson, Kurri and Coffey.
