The 4 forwards I listed just speaks to how management after 7 years still don’t anything about their core players. Johnny Gaudreau’s sweetheart 6 year contract will be over by next season and the best they could come up with is Josh Leivo, Dominic Simon, Joakim Nordstrom and Brett Ritchie who have been utter failures here. Their vision of 3 strong pairs has been the biggest reason why this season has been a disaster. Another coaching fire, lowest scoring 5 on 5 team in the division (last I checked). I mean I figured after the James Neal and Troy Brouwer debacles that they’d figure out what works and doesn’t work, but here we are again, facing the inevitable closure of our once promising window.
Sure Markstrom and Tanev have worked out well. But if they didn’t then Brad Treliving would’ve been fired a long time ago because this team would be sitting below Ottawa in the standings. It’s about the whole picture here, the small number of players I initially listed speak to the bigger story of failure here and I’m not sure I trust the same eyes and the same minds to fix what they broke in the first place.
