I guess it could be argued that waiving Rano was the first reak novem followed by Ortio.

I dont think firing anyone is the answer at this point but pro sports is known for knee jerk reactions and wonder how long BT can keep his patience in check.
I don't see how Stockton callups are "real moves". We've seen some already. Rämö already went through waivers, as did Raymond. (In other words, no team wanted our current #1 goalie, even for free.)

I also wouldn't compare scratches to trades and firings in terms of significance.

I think it will eventually be a firing. Jack Adams or not, our roster is not as bad as the team plays, and that's on the coach.

I also don't think impactful trades are even a realistic option at this points. They're hard to make in any situation, and right now our players stocks are so low there's no point in trading them. For example I don't think literally anyone would take Giordano off our hands right now, with the contract that's coming up and the way he's playing. Too much risk.
