You know what good teams do?
They draft talented players.
All this talk about heart and stuff? That can come from culture.
You know how you stay a bad team? Prioritizing off-ice intangibles or fan-perceived effort-levels.
Draft skill above all else, no matter what, always and forever. Hire a good coach that demands team unity and “playing for each other”, and watch how “heart” grows from the bottom of the roster to the top.
Talking about trading out our most talented players is how we stay in oblivion.
Fire the coach, tomorrow. Stop waiting. Either hire Darryl, or put Gelly/Jerard behind the bench as an interim coach. Start fixing the culture now by removing the figurehead of the current culture.
