These guys all should be entering this season knowing its do or die for all of them, not getting extensions beyond this season.
Have to agree with this. We’re also getting real close to danger time with Kopitar and Doughty. They’ve already lost a few steps. They’re better than I thought they’d be but they aren’t getting younger. We’ve had one first round draft pick success since our last cup (Kempe). At what point do we say we need to do some things differently?
To be clear, I don’t think that Blake or MacLellan have been terrible. They’re arguably the second-best GM/coach pair we’ve had in our history. But I just don’t think they’re good enough. That’s a really big difference. I’m not looking for pretty good. I’m not looking for “might challenge for the division title”. I just don’t think we have a cup-winning roster or coach. That’s really all there is to it.
