Not signing Zadorov over 500k and playing hardball seems stupid when the alternative was Forbort and Desharnais.

There I said it. Sometimes playing hardball is a good tactic, but in this circumstance is looks really bad.

I don't believe Boston would share your thoughts here. The Canucks dodged a bullet with Z, and this game does nothing to dispel that assertion.

I hate Myers with a burning passion and hes had a terrible game but Ive still seen him do some positives. I can honestly say if you told me Pettersson wasnt playing Id believe you

The crazy part is he likely would have taken less on the dollar amount if we added more years. We initially offered more 4.6x4 and he asks for 5 years. After the playoffs run, we offered 5x5 and he wanted 6 years.

I really think if they went back to 4.6M but offered 7-8 years, he takes it.

On the whole, it was a major screw up for Allvin.

fans should absolutely boo this team. those tickets were not cheap tonight and it's another zero on home ice

Yeah I think the paying customer has that right, sure. You're there and they throw up a stinker when bad starts have been a running theme. Unacceptable.

It's not about injuries, This team with a relatively healthy roster and a red hot Lankinen still didn't start on time. It's a pervasive issue.

like i said -> once demko and miller returned, there's no excuse now. these are important games with nearly full health to show something.

this is a game that'd get me in a reactionary mood
