Not sold on the current coach; see current record and "was retired from coaching hockey".
Starting goaltender; is Markstrom crushing that 6 mill contract out of the park?
Yes, the right side is a complete joke. How can you argue that?

Hillier helped them get to the playoffs, and was only a 2 year deal. Elliot was acquired through trade. Simon Lievo and Ritchie are 1 year league min contracts (who cares, happens every year on all or most teams). Raymond, that was 7 years ago, just let it go man, it’s okay to move on. Brouwer and Neal were bad signings, but if you think other teams/GM’s aren’t making bad UFA signings, you’re not paying attention. If you also think Treliving’s successor is going to bat 1.00 on UFA signings especially in a market like Calgary, you’re setting yourself up for disappointment.
Markstrom, a mistake? You willing to stick with that take?
You complain about Treliving not being able to find RW talent, what do you think he was trying to do with Brouwer and Neal? What about Czarnik? Where else were they going to get this top line RW and at what cost?
