Well from my perspective it looks like GMBT words mean nothing, his actions means he will burn it all down his way and only his way. Three DP former 1st round picks gone for what? More will be moved or just not played. He acts like he almost has some sort of grudge that DP is still around and so he is doing this to shove it in his face for firing him and not giving him better teams when he was a coach.

I don't see this being the case. I guess if one was an outsider looking in, it might occur to somebody who doesn't know Trotz or Poile. But I do trust that they have the very close and friendly and respectful relationship that we saw on display during the transition. I don't think there's any spite involved in Trotz's actions.

I think it's pretty much as simple as Trotz just not being a very good evaluator of modern NHL player talent. He genuinely believes (or believed his coach) that Fabbro and Tomasino weren't good enough to play for the team. He genuinely believes the AHL tweeners are better players. He genuinely believed the older/slower UFAs would make the team significantly stronger. He genuinely believes in Brunette as a coach. All that ails us... there's no spite or pettiness or anything like that involved. He's just... well, he's maybe not a very good GM. :dunno:

Big Sexy to IR

Callups from Milwaukee for the blue line.


Plus - Evangelista is back in
Plus - Del Gaizo did have a rough game so i can see why he sits
Plus - Wilsby gets a shot
Plus - novak starting between stamkos and Marchessault

Minus - none of this matters because this is just an on paper thing and we all know the lines and pairings will change about 5 minutes into the game.
