I guess we wait. We don’t know the makeup of this team and won’t until summer’s end. It’s going to look and feel different and that might not be a bad thing. Would I have liked a better GM and Coach…yeah! But this team needed to be reworked long ago. A couple of new UFA defensemen might help and a younger, 2C. Goaltending should be fine, if they get the defensive help they need. Time to start moving out dead-wood. Rielly, Robertson, Maccelli to start. Promote a goaltender from the Marlies and see where it takes you. There really is nothing that the fanbase can do about it. They wanted change, but didn’t get the change the majority wanted. Give it until January and if they’re out of contention, let the rebuild start.
Close tonight for the Marlies, but no puck luck. Nylander had the Championship on his stick but couldn’t finish. It’s weird that the Marlies play better on the road.
