That he wants to be a buyer next year
That he wants to get players instead of picks

Don't get me wrong, I like the sentiment that he wants the team to be competitive quickly. But the team will not be competitive quickly. Lets just call it as it is. There's way too little depth on D and in net and a ton of question marks at forward. Why not just be honest with the fanbase instead of trying to mess with peoples' expectations?
You are always trying to win. That's it.
So he wants to be a buyer next year... He won't be.
So he wants NHL ready good prospects.. It's unlikely he will get any.

But am GM, he better want it that way, imo
