It is enogh to say tha GM job wan done bad? Treliving got really young team after Feaster with lowest salary in NHL and on that package team got playoffs. Before this year's deadline we had 5th salary cap in NHL and finished 12th. Is it for coaches? We had 1 full year to get starting goalie, 1st RW and 2nd scoring line. Whole year was spent for nothing by GM... |
You're all over the map, dude. We got to the playoffs in 2015 with virtually the same roster as 2016, including the same goalies. We have the same bad contracts from year to year. And as far as average age goes, we were 23rd in the NHL last year, and 20th this.
So, you are blaming Treliving for having "1 full year" to get a starting goalie - when he already had goalies that got them to the playoffs the year before, to get a first line RW - when he already had a RW that had huge success with Monahan and Gaudreau - and for failing to purchase a second line - when we are still an organization at the start of a rebuild. Sam Bennett is one of those pieces.
The problem I would suggest, is that our unexpected playoff run in 2015 left you with inflated expectations.
