Exactly. For so long, we lamented this organization never taking swings at the big fish. Well, we've done that for at least 4-5 years now.
Don’t confuse effort with success.

They needed Tkachuk and to retain pretzel who was a much better fit for our system (and a family guy who would be more attracted to the Triangle).

96 clearly wasn’t researched well enough re his play and as a single guy, what motivates him (lol as Necas pointed out in his recent interview).

But, thank goodness Vancouver Mgt. was dumb enough to retain that highly paid but poorly playing C and Canes dodged a bullet there.

Martinook was not happy after that offside call
On svetch for half ass skating there.
 
Funny, Avs fans tried to tell us that Mikko quite often skates through games/periods of games sleepily but we refused to believe them.

They were right.
It can be infuriating at times so we can empathize for sure. There were flashes where I swear to God I was watching the second coming of Jaromir Jagr. Just an immovable force that bleeds skill and poise. But after the Cup win especially it felt like he stopped taking his training seriously, which is crazy to think about considering his production. Lehkonen's dad publicly criticized his effort level last season and that's when it kind of clicked into place for a lot of Avs fans.

I really hope he rediscovers his game and sticks around long term for you guys. Always been rooting for the Canes as my team in the East and I'd love to see him thrive there if not on the Avs.

In hindsight it hasn’t worked out… but come on, when this first happened we were calling him a wizard… what he did you do 10 times out of 10
Interesting the post above from the Avs/Canes fan.

None of us realized the issues that had occurred in Denver and the criticism re: his training.

Red flag missed.

And honestly… if rants came in and dominated, was having fun I’ll bet he’s signed by now….since he’s been here more has gone wrong than right…. Which I’m sure makes him way more cautious
