    I haven't even said a way.

     

    There are a lot of other options between.... Trade Every player over 25 years old... and Trade no one.   You've made this out to be that there are only two possible options.  Once again, you just create strawmen when people don't agree with you. 

     

    All I'm saying is that I've seen other teams do this scorched earth style rebuild and it doesn't work.  You can't have all kids and no one to be a role model and set an example. 

     

     

    I agree, the kids need veterans around to help them along.

     

    Thats why hanging on to guys like Weber will be helpful if the plan is to rebuild.

    And we give up a breakaway.... 3-2

     

    Price probably needs to stop that though.   Still can't give up a breakaway that easy too. 

     

    This team is something else.

     

    Price can’t get make the big saves right now but the team is just leaking prime scoring chances like candy. You figure something needs to happen soon with the coaching staff if this continues.

    First rule of defending a 2 on 1, goalie takes the shooter and D man takes the pass.... both 2 on 1s, the Habs D screwed that up.

     

    The Zajac goal was particularly egregious as Reilly took the man all the way to the boards and left Zajac wide open in front. 

     

    No doubt about it Weber played that 2-1 in the worse way.

     

    Still the forwards are just not covering and helping the defence that is causing the 2-1 in the first place.

    The offer sheet was a joke and I don’t want a GM that tries. I want one that gets the friggin job done.

     

    Ok well I only half agree here because he did try but in the end I didn’t think giving up 2 first or even 4 firsts for Aho was worth it.

     

    He does need to upgrade the D though, if he can’t do that this year and we miss the playoffs, this will be a big problem.

    Every team can be improved. Every team needs moves.  There is no perfect team in the cap era. 

    You search for moves, and then you make the one that makes sense. 

     

    You don't force a move cause of a losing streak.  Desperation is how you lose the deal. 

     

    Two different things. 

     

    I completely agree.

     

    I think a move should be made though at the right time if this team is going to try and make the playoffs because they clearly need help on D.

    Things are likely to get better in a week or two, thats sports. 

     

    This team isn't a team thats going to lose every game as an 0-3-2 record suggests, no more than it was a record setting team that a 7-1-2 record before that suggested. 

    Its more likely the sum of those parts, a 7-4-4 team in its last 15 games. 

     

    I think they will rebound against the Devils on Thursday. 

     

    Setting themselves up to be hungry over the weekend. It’s the way it goes, that’s not to say a move shouldn’t be made because it does.
