So let's see. Those who are in favor of tanking, and constantly complain about trading draft picks, are now complaining that Chuck didn't trade a 1st rd. pick in order to rid the team of one last non-contending season of JVR, in order to sign a 29-year-old Gaudreau for 7 years at $9M per.

Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. LOL.

No fan with half a brain is confused and garbled and contradictory with their messaging. That’s the aimless unsuccessful team.

You have a team as flukey as it was in the Stanley Cup two years ago admitting they need to tear it down. Compare that to the Flyers. :laugh:

And an actual dynasty team, who just committed $76 mil last offseason to one player, is rebuilding too.

How many times does it need to be explained to you before you stop misinterpreting everyone?

Again, I present that either you’re 1) incapable of understanding things or 2) you’re intentionally misrepresenting what people are saying and again I don’t believe that it’s the first one.

Prospects that play on the 4th line

The thing is this team is directionless. They have no plan. They have no idea what they are doing.
One of 2 things needed to happen as I see it

1. You sign a JG and try to build around Couterier and others. Not the direction I would take.
2. Sell off everything and start from the bottom. Rebuild.

They did neither. He made moves that are head scratching when seeing they have no plan.

Scott sits back and allows this GM to do basically what the previous GM did. Sit on the fence with no plan and hope for the best.

Kadri turns 32 on October 6th, so he'll be 38 years and 8 months old when his contract expires in June 2029.

Huberdeau turns 30 on June 4th, so he'll be 38 when his contract expires in June, 2031.

Couturier turns 30 on December 7th, so he'll be 37 years and 6 months old when his contract expires in June, 2030.

Three guys their teams are counting on being good for most of their 30s.
