No one fits the definition of aging vet better than Derek Ryan.

Trotz we have your man. And his character will be the KEY to unlocking Marchie and Stamkos potential.

Not that i think Parssinen is really anything to write home about, but it's very much looking like hiring a coach to just take over as GM was in fact, a bad idea with pretty dire consequences.

I mean, I think he's a comparable player to Drew O'Conner at the moment. I think DOC's value is right around a third.
I think the point is that they would rather see him stay and develop as opposed to getting another 3rd round pick.

Which is interesting since Trotz was a really good coach and if somebody told me he was "a smart hockey man", as the cliche goes, I would have totally believed it. It turns out, however, he is truly clueless at this GMing thing.

I would go as far as maybe Washington knew what they were doing when they let him go. The man does not understand much about actually developing the roster. We can also remind ourselves Nashville didn't have real 1st line forwards for what seemed like decades at the time during his HC tenure.
