Good call Scorp.
I don't expect that there is much chance of the sell off you suggested. However, if Kylington comes back I do think Hanifin or Tanev would make a ton of sense to move (and the rest if it makes sense at the TDL).
Does anyone know the contract status of Mitch Love? If he is able to lead the Wranglers to a championship is there a risk that he is gone to another organization?
I'm of the opinion that Sutter's lack of faith in this talent (i.e. we don't have stars and need to roll lines and throw volume on net) became a self-fulfilling prophecy. The refusal to use Phillips or to give Pelletier and Ruzicka much opportunity down the stretch despite shakey play from the vets is just too much.
Before a teardown, I'd like to see what they can do with a different approach behind the bench. If it still doesn't work, put up a fire sale at the deadline next year.
