To buy out Brouwer and immediately go back to the well with Neal shows of a general lack of patience, trying over and over for the quick fix. It really does look like a Canadian thing as the Canucks pretty well doing the same thing when they aren't ready to be a contender. Canadian owners and fans simply lack the patience for the long game.
