Still a deep draft nonetheless.
The best course of action for Calgary is keep playing to the best of their ability (even though it’s been dog crap lately). A lot of these struggles have to do with Sutter.
I think it might be time to let him and Treliving go if this season doesn’t work out. We have a lot of appealing pieces to trade at the deadline if we are going to do a huge retool or a massive rebuild. We pivoted with two all star wingers gone, but unfortunately we couldn’t improve.
This franchise needs a new direction, starting with the coaching and GM. We’ve tried and tried with coaching and just can’t seem to get a good fit. I love Sutter, but man… his decisions lately has me questioning if he truly is the guy that is going to get us to even sniff Lord Stanley again in this decade.
