Backlund has been the most consistent player. If a contender will take him retained for a 1st then you can't say no to that
If Backlund isn't generating that kind of interest then keep him and award him the captaincy
Hand this team off to Pelletier, Coronato, Zary, Poirier and Wolf and the picks coming in
Do what you need to fetch the talent, then let it cook
This "iteration" of vets that have seen their best days isn't going anywhere
Pull off the band aid. Youth is fun, it means growth will come. And with that, hope.
And we can stop being butt end of jokes about being that team that signs ufa mercs to cling to dreams of 8th place

I like what the TB GM did!
He stated that picks/draft picks doesn't win you a Stanley Cup but proven players do! Was it reckless ? It depends who you ask? But I agree with his mindset. I wish more GMs do this, it's more fun!
