He might have stayed with a better role and lots more money but I wasn't really inclined to give either.
Well, there had to be a limit. He will probably get over that limit.

I agree completely. Copp was underutilized and mismanaged as an asset in Winnipeg due to many factors but the time to have signed him to a managable longer term deal came and went earlier in his career. I loved Copp but I wanted no piece of this next contract just like I want no piece of Scheifele’s next contract.He could turn out to be the exception, but in general it is extremely inadvisable to give a player with Copp's play style a big contract well into his 30s.
I think the majority of the players are mismanaged on this team due to POOR coaching.I agree completely.

I think Ottawa would be more tolerableOut of all non-Winnipeg Canadian NHL teams, they are probably the ones I could tolerate winning the most.

Panthers feed on HNIC is so boring/bad, not sure if I’ve heard a good Colour/play by play guys for any American teams…….my experience is they are so bad they make the games boring/bad
Roslovic with another goal today that's 21 a career high, he didn't to play here got traded to where he wanted to play and has produced.
We could conclude that we started by drafting the wrong guy. Then we failed to develop/use him to full potential. Then we traded him for too little.
Roslovic is the biggest bungling by Maurice imo. He is exact type of player that you want playing a big role on a third scoring line or a complimentary type role in the top 6. He was a poor fit with Lowry on a checking line. A third scoring line of Perrault/Copp/Roslovic would have given this team a lot the two years prior to him being dealt.
Still he's essentially a low end second liner at this point in his career so he's not some elite Ayer we lost.
I get you don't like Adam Lowry, but the problem with Roslovic was with Roslovic. He had a good run with 2015 line. But he wasn't dominant when Little went down, and he got top 6 duty. As a checking line winger he would float from time to time, and the agressive forecheck that he was capable of we didn't always get. I do think that Perreault-Copp-Roslovic would have been a good line, but your insistence that Adam Lowry as a 3rd line centre is the reason for all this team's failure isn't necessarily true. Roslovic's fate was signed when the Jets roomed him with Brendan Lemieux, and Lemieux's dad became his agent, after Brendan was moved out.Roslovic is the biggest bungling by Maurice imo.

The second half of this year has been Rosie's best as an NHLer. Pangs of regret good.Yeah I haven't watched him lately but Roslovic was pretty bad for the CBJ last season after a hot start and similarly bad to start off this season. I haven't watched then since December so maybe he's turned the corner but he wasn't looking too good and frequently playing 4th line wing.

Ah ha, Vegas chocked their lead away last night and losses in the shootout. Now three points out with 3 games left.
Come on Dallas put the dagger in on Tuesday. A loss for Vegas all buts eliminate them.
