I have to think ownership is not letting them go full rebuild, unless him and Jones are full something else.

If I'm draisaitl, I'm not staying unless I know Connor is going to commit long term, and I would imagine that conversation has already taken place.

He was daily for an hour, too much. Around trade deadline I watched his show though.

The person who did that line-up seriously decided to put the 3 smallest Wild players together on the 1st line...

It does show however that the process works.
Massive credit to Gorton for getting Hughes on board.
I don't care what anyone else says we hit a home run hiring a former agent who lives breathes and bleeds hockey.
Ek is only 28, it's Zuccarello who's 36 (37 before the season start).

Hughes ticks all the boxes
Former player
Former agent
Educated
Montreal native
Already wealthy (so he cares more about winning than keeping his job)
Tough to imagine a better candidate, and that is just information on paper before even talking to the guy. No wonder Gorton went through the trouble of convincing Hughes to take the job rather than sticking to interviewing the usual suspects and hiring the least unqualified one.

It’s easy to blame the GM, when Comcast CEO stated at shareholders there would be no rebuild and 1-year of playoff revenue buys 3-years goodwill as he did.
GMs have a boss they need to please..

Thank you. That is actually a good answer to my direct question. I wasn't sure if it was doable but your response shows that it definitely is. Why wouldn't we do it? If it was possible I would as well.

Briere was hired to patchwork lol
Good morning
Bah, should have tried to do a one hole into the cup, not have it watch you play...
Although, I supposed the people who fix the cup every two weeks suggest against it.

This is a projected lineup made by some media guy or fan. People read WAY too much into those projected lineup. At the end of the day they mean jack shit.

There are so many fan sites all over the place now, written by anyone trying to make a few bucks out of clickbait headlines, it's infuriating.
In our area, every day I see headlines from "dans les coulisses", "Habsolumentfan", "sac de chips" etc etc etc like: "Here is the confirmation of what we thought about <insert player>!" or "here how this trade for Laine could happen!" followed by a completely useless article on something everyone knew already or don't care about. Special gems to "Mathias Brunet thinks this could happen!" or "Tony Marinaro lose it live over this issue!" or other similar.
Just effing clickbaits

Monster contract but I don't see how you don't give him that after the year he just had. Crazy how he was seen as a meh prospect just last year.
