Alot of people judge things they don't understand.
We didn’t finish second last Becuase if the room. We finished last Becuase we wouldn’t let duchene stone dizingel chabot and karlsson and Hoffman play hockey the coach had them defending for 60 minutes a game and we surrounded them with thompson dumont pyatt oduya smith and boro.

And then we fixed the room and we did even f***ing worse man. Stop talking about the f***ing room we fixed the room lmao. And we were WORSE.

Getting high picks doesn’t matter when your owner and GM make trades to “fix the room”

That Hoffman trade was bloody ridiculous. Without concrete proof, Karlsson's wife should have been told to shut up and stop bringing tabloid publicity to the team.

Not going into it anymore but we made the east final and suddenly 1)forgot how to play hockey or 2)the dressing room was f***ed, you decide.

We made it to east final against Pittsburgh so it was perfectly fine to think that way at the time. But what isn't reasonable is expecting that same group to get back there after everything that has transpired since then.
Get back there? How about just not finishing dead last. We finished second last. A reasonable expectation would be to not be worse.

Thought we fixed the room tho.

The goaltending was also really awful the following year after our cup run.
Look how we played though. If we scored in the first 5 seconds of the game we would go into a full out defensive shell. And if the other team scored early we would try to prevent a second. It was like Boucher went haywire in Boucher fashion.

I don’t disagree.

I mean I think the obvious answer was to keep our core together and bring up the younger guys to supplement them. We would have had a real nice looking roster even if we had to get rid of Hoffman still.

We also shipped off our #2 Dman to the expansion draft and failed to replace him, and both Karlsson and Brassard missed offseason training+most/all of camp to major surgery and were clearly still suffering from it to start the season. MacArthur also LTIRed, so there goes another top6 forward from that team that made it to the ECF, Stalberg was left to walk, and Wideman had a career ender of an injury 16 games in. Oh, and Anderson had a terrible start to the year. Stone missed 24 games, Ryan was constantly injured, Chabot was underutilized until it was far too late,

But yeah, it was the room...

Also. Since you know about the room so much and how bad it is, how come you were bragging all year about how melnyk and dorion cleaned it up so good in the summer lmao, when it apparently still needed cleaning up bybtrading Stone duchene and dzingel?

They said the room was broken but you deny it and make up excuses so that you can eventually put %100 of the blame on the coaches or gm.
