Ownership and Management

I've already said in this thread make it a bigger deal to alter our team presence and dynamic a la Quinns 1991 deal with St. Louis.

I also asked you if you would keep the first or Willander given your druthers.

I don't get paid to make hockey deals, JR and PA do.

I've noted the Blues as a struggling team who we could perhaps mirror the Ronning/Courtnall deal off of using Kyrou as an option.

I believe there potentially could be something there.

If it is a good enough deal to alter our future all assests are in play.

That's the job....

That's the job....

I wouldn’t even consider trading Willander or the first. If it’s Kyrou we are trading for it should be a hockey trade, ie Pettersson for Kyrou. Both are struggling. We are not in a position to keep draining from the futures well.

[donlever]

Ok....we're either not communicating or I am not making my point sufficiently.

I am not saying trade the 1st or Willander for Kyrou.

And trading EP for Kyrou would be pointless as we then would have no centre ice depth.

Moving on now....

I don't think a decent second line center is ever going to be available at a price we can afford.

I say we ride with Reichel and see where it takes us.

The kid could have 6 goals by now with some luck…

If he can do anything at all, it was a good asset value trade. I don't like to see them trading away first and second round picks, but getting anyone who can contribute useful shifts in the NHL for a 4th rounder is a win.

Perhaps this could serve to get some of the people whose opinions on the subject matter to get excited about just how fast a well-planned, well-executed re-build can be.

We would like to get ONE of the people excited on the subject matter.

I was assuming that there might be some people -- evidently not Rutherford or Allvin -- to whom F.A. would listen about such things.

Nor Trevor Linden.

So who?

His Dad?

[Carl Yagro]

We're pretty chill here compared to some of the Reddit threads I've been reading about the Aquas...

[Ronning's Ghost]

The crowd chanted "Fire Mike Gillis", and Franco did.

How about if the crowd chanted "Sell the Team!" ?

[donlever]

They have.

[Carl Yagro]

Yes, I've chanted heard the chants when I've been in the building.

[Meds]

Chants don't mean shit to billionaires so long as the chanters are still paying the price of admission.

[donlever]

Yep

[Carl Yagro]

No bums in the seat, no drunks in the concourse.

At least the ticket holder behind you will see this clearly now.
