But seriously, Tulsky didn't even do what Dallas did in negotiating an extension first and then to make it worse, Rantanen apparently really wanted to go to Edmonton and Tulsky tried to send him to Toronto first for Marner like the bloke didn't even f***ing learn his lesson the first time.
Tulsky is a brilliant capologist. But holy shit is he an absolutely dreadful GM. He pissed away a good part of his prospect pool and a very good Necas and also a depth player in Drury for barely a dozen or so games of Rantanen and losing Guentzel at the end of the season last year, lol.
And then he only gets back Stankoven and some firsts from Dallas. Stank is good, he's very strong on his skates and has a lethal shot but he's also barely 5'8" and he's put up 9 goals in 50+ games this season with a shooting percentage of 6. Played a ton with Robo and Hintz. He'll produce I'm sure in Carolina but that as a return for Rantanen is not ideal.
He didn't learn from the Jake Guentzel trade and then even worse with Rantanen but got back some first rounders and a small but fiesty W/C with a lethal shot that seemingly isn't shooting enough.
And got dunked on by an awful Bruins squad 4-0 lol.
