1 and 2 are not insignificant changes. Toss in 3, and it's huge.
Have the winning bid on a UFA like Evander Kane alongside 1 and 2...and again, that's huge!

Yes they are.
I dont believe that RA gets any sort of return that matters at this point...but maybe he gets another prospect, so thats a wash.
Brouwer moving on via buyout or anyway else doesnt change anything with the core guys.
Brodie was brutal this year and last. Like Brouwer he may be addition by subtraction and allow one of the young guys a spot, but that doesnt address the forward issues.
Maybe I read to much into what BT said, but man he seemed pissed off he was firing a coach when he was blaming players just as much if not more.
That, IMO, means a big change coming.
An absolutely necessary one too.
