Making a move for a useful player with term makes sense, but by no means should they make a blockbuster for a rental. Losing Klefbom and Russell really sucks, but they should be back soon and hopefully Nurse has learned a thing or two by playing all of these minutes.
I get the argument that they need to capitalize on McDavid in his prime, but there's no point in giving up a lot of assets just to get slaughtered by Nashville, or worse Calgary, in the first round.
Things in Bakersfield are FINALLY looking positive.
No playoffs would mean a change in management, hopefully for the better. Unlike many of you, I believe that Katz is losing his mind right now. He is paying way too much money to under performing players, managers and now former coaches. However, I'm still really worried that he'll likely keep Lowe and Nicholson who will hire the first former Team Canada dinosaur that answers their land line to be their GM.
Anyway, Merry Christmas everyone!
