Yeah, I definitely understand the desire for change at the top of the roster - and I think we may still see it. Tree is definitely still working away at things. With that said though, last year was a down year for pretty much every skater on this team, which makes sense given all of the craziness in the first few months of the season.
With Ward at the helm, I’m optimistic we may see some lineup changes that could spark a new flame or two. If no further changes are made, I don’t think it’s the worst thing in the world - but ideally I’d like to see some change as well.
I think Tree has improved this team as-is while staying cap compliant, which isn’t something a whole lot of other teams have been able to do this off-season.
