This is a high enough percentage that it actively makes me think that it'll end up costing us in trade negotiations.

A decade plus of failure and mismanagement, be a f***ing Flyer!Matvei will be just the next sacrificial lamb.
As was Giroux, Coots, Ghost, as will be Konecny, etc etc.
I could clarify I suppose.
What has he done to significantly raise the talent level of the team?
Other than Michkov, I can’t say anything. Hes sat on his ass, and happily waddled up draft 10th, and seems prepped to do it again.
Rebuilding buys a GM grace, buys them time - but moving out a few guys that they don’t see as a fit (or they ask out as was the case of Prov) - and doing little else is problematic.
Again, say Briere misses the dance again next season. That’s 3 seasons where he’s asked for patience, but accomplished what exactly to bring in high end talent?
The way it looks to me, is he’s hoping free agency or a trade will save the day. He’s running out of time. He’s wasted his tenure so far - as I see it.

No problem. Rebuild will be over in 18 months. LMAOI don’t think a lot of fans realize how many pieces they are missing in order to be a contender.
First off, they don’t have a #1 goaltender. Sure, Ersson has been playing well but he has yet to show the consistency or the durability needed to be a #1 on a contender.
On D, they need a #1 to pair with Sanheim on the top unit and someone to play with York on the second pairing.
Up front they need both a 1st and a 2nd line center, plus they need a 1st line LW.
There is little in the current prospect pool that can fill these needs. They have a couple of goaltending prospects who might pan out and become starters, but they are far from sure things. On D, Bonk is the only guy with any kind of legitimate chance of playing in the top 4 and even he has virtually no shot of being an all situations top pair player. At forward, Luchanko might be a 2C someday, but there is just as much of a likelihood that he tops out as a 3C.
Now add to that an organization that has done nothing to show that they can help skilled players develop and improve their game and one that thinks Jett Luchanko is more valuable than Zeev Buium and it’s damned hard not to be extremely pessimistic. They are dominated by a coach who has shown little ability to grasp how to run a successful team in today’s NHL or how to properly treat players and the guy in charge of the entire organization is enamored with players who achieved their greatest success way back in the 1970s.
Yeah, things are just peachy.
