I watched almost every game last season and saw a team that was so offensively disfunctional on the ice for a majority of the games it's time to look at the players we have. The moves I would like to see is just moving expendable pieces. Read, Schenn, Filppula, Manning, and Raffl are not long term pieces to this team in my mind. Couturier, possibly, but if he has alot of value out there why not explore it. I may have undersold a deal for him.
Alot of people blame the coach for this team's rut.....problem is it's been the same rut for 3-4 different coaches with alot of the same players...why not blame the players they're playing the game, not the coaches.
Not many teams if any can afford to take on Jake's contract. $8 million is a hard pill to swallow for 7 more years...
Plus I am envisioning moves that will open up cap space. I'm curious to see what Hextall can/would do when he has more then $4 million in cap space to play with in an offseason.
