What is he going to do about all those big contracts he handed out last off season.?

Stamkos is 34 and in the first year of a 4 year $8M contract with a NMC. Marchessault is 33 and in the first year of a 5 year $5.5M contract (with either a NMC or modified NTC - not clear which). They each have 2 goals in 12 games. Oy. Brady Skjei is 30 and is in year 1 of a 7 year contract (similar NMC/NTC) making $7M per year. Josi and Forsberg are good players, but they both have full NMCs.

Saros is 29 and has a new 8 year $7.75M contract with a NMC kicking in next summer. So, maybe trading Saros is the rebuild plan?

Barry and Lou can swap old overpriced overtermed players?

If there truly was a power struggle between Lou and Trotz, I now feel better that we stayed with Lou as our GM.

I didn’t think that was possible.

Trade one to Lou for a 1st rounder so we can keep hope alive for a wild card spot?

You go Barry - you signed ALL the problem child’s on your roster. Maybe get some experience in management before signing OLD guys to TERM.

Yup. Instead of signing fading superstars do what Lou did…sign a bunch of cheaper bottom of the lineup guys that no one else ever wanted to TERM.
