I would think, getting pounded by the leafs in the playoffs, if we even make it, would finally embarass Geoff enough to remove MB and hopefully himself.
Everyone knows we need a hockey ops president, and a new GM....what amazes me, is we all know it, but Geoff doesn't? I mean seriously, does he think we have had success in the last 5-6 years?
The team is not where it should be.
It's a mess when you think about it.
- We got some albatross contract on players that are slowing down.
- Our center line problems are not resolve. 8 years on the job and we still have no certainty or glimpse of success.
- Our defense is terrible, lack of offense and not even good at defending.
- For a team build on character, years in and years out they showed just the opposite.
- Bergevin made 2 coaches changes that didn't bring any difference in the results.
- Alzner is still $4M on the cap this year....and $2M next year.
- Danault, Tatar, Armia, Perry could all walk free next summer, they might be tired of losing too. Still we could miss the PO.
- He got 4 forwards under contract for next years (other than prospect, ELC players). One we put on waivers 10 times this year and another is sitting home right now and don't really want to be here.
It's a mess.
