They lost their number 2 center, didn't replace him, and some people thought the team that ultimately finished 4th in their division and lost in the first round might not make the playoffs.
That's not even remotely what you said, but of course not, because what you claimed never happened with any of those players. Not once.
Post #4 - It's truly remarkable how much a simple decision by one 2nd line center is going to alter the path this franchise takes going forward. If Krejci comes back, we're all in on 2022. If Krejci walks, we're in trouble unless Donny gets very creative and might just punt on the season.
Post #8 - At that stage if the answer is no to Krejci, yes, they may want to ask Marchand and Bergeron how they want to end their career.
Post #32 - where does the scoring come from? What happens with 1 injury to a key player. LOTTERY!
Post #36 - right lol, I think if you play the kids, they are a lotto team. especially with 1 key injury
Post #37 - If Coyle is your 2C, you don't bother allocating all that cap to Hall. You're in retool/rebuild mode at that point.
That's through the 1st 5 pages of that thread and I didn't even include all the , no way Hall's signs here if Krejci is gone posts .
Again read it how you want but there were people here last cashing in on last season when Krejci and Rask weren't being resigned. And yet the team made the playoffs and had 107pts.
