I am wondering how the rest of the fanbase sees Lou now because he hasn't done anything blockbuster yet.
I just want to say that there have been a lot of small signings where I see people go "woop dee do" and "don't care" etc etc
To me, he was sideswiped by a certain someone and wasn't able to start running out of the gate, so in my mind, Lou is shoring up what he can. He probably listened to Garth about each player, what they can do, their strengths, weaknesses etc and Lou will fill the gaps, play the boys for maybe the first quarter of the season and then start dropping the ball by unloading players for ones that fit.
Lou was right though, we aren't a trainwreck and we aren't really rebuilding. Rebuilding means we have nothing and no prospect depth. We have prospect depth that make even good teams jealous, so stop it with the BS. I wouldn't say we are missing players..we just acquired the wrong ones. Right now, the entire 3rd line got a reboot....why didn't we try and go for Vermette? I think he would have been a better option than flippula...
