100% agree
If he hires Tippett just because he and Malone worked with
Him, then he will be making his last hire based on what is familiar with instead what is right for the team. If Bradley makes that mistake then that will his last bullet spent.

We saw Hamonic play pissed off near the end of the year before his injury and I think that is the Hamonic that shows up in the playoffs.

Even more so to Trelivings argument is the fact we should have never been looking at a lottery pick and the player they would have got may never turn out to be more than a third line player.

I am sure there are those hoping the isles win the lottery with our pick to point more fingers at Tre but pretend you are in the boardroom before making that trade. You run the numbers and are convinced you are a playoff team...the trade makes perfect sense. Even if you aren't a playoff team but just on the outside, the odds of moving up in the lottery are so low that it still makes sense to bring in Hamonic. As it turns out, all of the worst case scenarios are playing out but it is way to early to tell who won or lost that trade. Let's see who the Isles get and what they become.
Hamonic just isn’t very good. It’s not that the picks for the anticipated production is an issue, it is that the valuation of Hamonic representing that value was just wrong. Put simpler, trading those picks for a legit too 4 d man is fine. Hamonic justbsint that guy.

And, in my view, that is the delusion on this board. This team isnt even close
to as good as people think it is. Especially wrt to our D, which is below average.

You dont think Hamonic is a top 4 Dman? With all due respect, you are mistaken.

If Peters is Treliving's choice, it's time for Treliving to go before he can make the hire. Changing the messenger without changing the message addresses, at most, half of this team's issues.

He must be really confident in Peters and the roster changes this coming offseason. He knows it's do or die next season.

That would be an amazing thing if Burke came out with Tre looking supportive and did it in the style of a classic heel turn.

Another non funny low value post. Can we actually have some real conversations, negative or positive, instead of this junk?

Too bad Lanny doesn't have enough scratch to buy the team. We like him.

Are you done crying yet? Literally every one of your posts you're whining like a little girl. It's almost as if you like bitching more than you like the Flames. Maybe give the guy a chance before spending all your time complaining.

I've disagreed with more Treliving moves than I've agreed with, but I am willing to see what this new coach brings, and what personnel decisions will be made. It's gonna be an interesting season
