I do think we will need to drop the next three. For changes
A blow out to BOS and MIN should be enough to get him fired.

Well it kind of has been for this franchise lol...one win in fifteen years. We won more games in Detroit in one week of '95 than we have in the last fifteen years.
Yeah it's the sad truth. Elias needs to go if he wishes to a winner. Jagr to a winner. Zidlicky to a winner. Salvador to a winners. Zubrus. Bruner.
I would keep
Gio
Henrique
Zajac ( can't trade em all)
Josefson
Camm
Boucher
Rutuu
Sislo
Mattau
Start there gotta get some young nhl ready players back for the old guys so we can field a team. And just suck for a couple years
I want Pete to be pink slipped tonight but we also have a weak roster.
JL went 29-17-3 with the following roster.
Kovalchuk, Greene, Zajac, ROlston, Tallinder, Zubrus, Fayne, Palmieri, Elias, Salmela, White, Volchenkov, Pelley, Clarkson, Mair, Arnott, Tedenby, and Zharkov.
The roster was so bad that Kovy was playing 27+ mins some nights.
This team is giving up way too many shots and goals. Need a guy that can develop our defense while making us competitive.
I don't think you could realistically trade Elias or Zubrus this year and Brunner's not worth much anyway.
It is getting to the point where Lou needs to pull a Boston Red Sox and blow up one season to make big moves to position the team for a run next year. It's just not what he does though.
Agreed and what savvy deals to people want? People on the phones with GMs that know about these savvy trades that Lou isn't making?
NHL FA doesn't allow a team to just blow up and be good in short amount of time.
Who are we signing next off season that would be a game changer.
A player like Kovalchuk rarely ever becomes a UFA. Hockey players seem to be a lot more loyal to their clubs and rarely leave.
Didn't watch the post-game, but did he really say that? Enough of the excuses. He has used that too many times this season alone. Jesus. Enough of Deboer. I'm for real. **** PDB.
I'm starting to think that we have a legitimate chance at Eichel.
Its one thing to have a weak roster, its another when your vets don't even show up to play

This is going to be an unpopular opinion, so flame suit is on but here goes. Not sure how we compare to other fan bases, but holy crap the collective here has no problem selling franchise greats up the river when the going gets bad. We expect our players to be loyal to the team, to take the home town discount, to not go home to wherever when UFA comes a knockin'.
Patty has been a stinker for what, 12 games or so and the brain trust here wants to send him packing? Two cups, leading scorer of all time for the Devils and huge contributor for years is not enough to give him a little more rope? Really?
Maybe we're just a tough crowd in the metro area - I've witnessed Yankee fans turn on Jeter and Devils fans turn on Marty. Still see come comments (do not remember if here or on NJDevs) almost gleeful that he hasn't signed with a team yet. Absolutely disgusting. /rant
Agreed for the most part but if we keep losing Elias might WANT to be traded at some point next year. Hell they could trade him next year and bring him back if they wanted to as well.

i'd honestly take Kovy and that garbage over what we have now
he won games by himself

This place is a shell of its former self
Never was it this unbearable, not even when we had the worst start in franchise history in 2010-11 was it this bad
