Yes. We will have to trade an asset to get rid of Brouwer. He has negative value and this isn't Nhl17

Deal with it.

It would be nice if he did everyone a favor and resigned.

Deal with what? You know we don’t have to trade Brouwer. We could just not play him on the PP and PK!

But yeah if we had traded a top prospect and Brouwer for nothing , the team fortunes would be entirely different !

Or even just stick Brouwer (and Stajan for the rest of the season) in the press box regularly.

Brief summary of his comments on the game:

-We weren't ready to compete
-Tkachuk was ready to go, the rest of our group no
-This isn't a play one out of 3 period league, it's the same old story, not wining special teams
-Not a lack of confidence, but a lack of execution
-Not Smith's fault, need to kill the penalty he took for him

Why would we deal a top prospect when we could just put him in the minors or buy him out next season? Regardless, subtracting Brouwer isn't going to all of a sudden make everyone else on the team better. He's a problem but so are a lot of others and I think a coaching change is our best bet right now. Heck maybe a new coach can even get something out of Brouwer.

i'd prefer trading an asset to gain the salary cap room than I would buying him out.

Maybe this team needs less salary cap room.

How about for once he takes blame for being unable to get his team to perform? Keeps saying this over and over again.

You're the leader. Own up to it.

I think you're right, the more we can gain by getting rid of one of the worse contracts in hockey, the more options we have to do something with it.

As a fan I'm the opposite of confident in GG's system. So how do the players feel?

I feel like I've already lived through this all before. Like 3 weeks ago. And then 3 weeks before that.

Finally it is time to move on. Brad has to move on and admit he made a mistake in hiring Gully and Cameron. There is still IMO time to salvage the season, but the changes have to happen now. I can't see Brad and especially Burke allow these mediocre coaches to continue past this week. They need to bring in Tippett as head coach, bring up Huska from the farm and bring Marty down from his sky perch. Please get Cameron and Gully away from this team. I think Tippett, Huska and Marty could have this team on a winning streak in a very quick timeframe. The pp process is so awkward and slow too watch. My biggest fear they will start trading away. Players instead of firing the coaches and trying a new process/system.

Can't fire the players, and something has to change before Rasmus Dahlin ends up wearing orange

Bye bye
