I think if the right player is there then Treliving will go hunting. General sense is that the team knows you overpay in term and salary in the UFA market so they need to get it right. Hearing they spent some time tweaking how they evaluate players with analytics hopefully helps them a little more.

Also, one thing that I don't think has been mentioned, to start it off KK just posed the question to the audience if they enjoy the pageantry that Vegas is bringing. Audience response was pretty mixed. At the end of the day it sounds like they will be making the effort to try and change the whole experience. Asked people to feel free to email what is working and what isn't working. IMO they fell into the trap of thinking this is a hockey market, they just want hockey. In looking around at the audience responses I think there was a pretty clear demographic division.
