Never once has this franchise figured out a way to overcome their mediocrity. And when they almost did they let JG and tkachuk leave for bags of pucks to remain mediocre once again.

I appreciate that some people can remain continuously optimistic about every move this organization makes but I’m jaded and while I will always remain a fan, I won’t get my hopes up. Only team to have never drafted in top 3 (I think I heard that this week) and we just kinda suck.

But yeah, I’m happy for those of you who think Honzek is the next blue chip stud we need, and I’ll be happy if it turns out that way, but the odds are against him because of a) draft position and b) the organization who drafted him and I’m not about to congratulate the team on doing anything positive.

And some of us come here because the misery of being a fan of this team is nice, it’s like a good book or an old friend that’s always there for you. Can set your watch to the flames always finishing 8th-24th in standings 99% of the time and sucking in the playoffs or blowing the draft pick depending on what side of that scale they’re on

Just want to see them do something bold for ####ing one time

I share your passion but I disagree. BT was finally our bold GM. Made a splash signing a Vezina caliber goalie at the time. Drafted tkachuk instead of a safer 2 way player, signed a multitude of deals and frankly made a huge bold blockbuster trade turning a #### scenario to what even vegas bookies thought was a better cup contending team. I'm afraid Conroy is that new mediocre GM but I hope I'm wrong. So far that first trade was far from
Bold
