They need to bring on competent management because they absolutely cannot ruin another group of good players by being totally incompetent with surrounding those good players with proper support, both on the ice and with quality coaching.
If Adams brought this trade to me, I'd fire him.
They cannot trade a now player for 2 to 3 seasons down the road futures.
If they're going to do that, just trade all the good players for futures and move the team to Mars. - kingcong39
How is it just futures, your getting Konecny for the present.

And he should have been fired already, and what you said is already happening. What has he done outside his little Island to improve this team right Know, good drafting- I think that's more Ventura and Crowe |

Is an 11% hit rate considered good?
This drought has established potential means bupkis.

Well if you don't use them or drive them out that affects your success rate. Is that on Ventura or the GM and Coach. |

How long would it take a new president/GM to change the culture?
If it’s 2+ years, how many core guys will ask for trades? |

Well I don't think it would take Long at all if they brought in the right People and Leadership with some Pedigree. There's talent here, they need those finishing hard nosed grit players that have done it. Not SirFallsAlot or Retired man. |

They could have signed a few this past Off-season.
They can't wait 2yrs to change again, they cannot let whatever is lingering keep going. They have a lot of young Talent. They need to change know or all that good talent will want out in 2 years. |

This board is very funny
-The team needs:
* a gritty Top6/9 scoring forward
* a Top 4 D (RhD preferably)
* a 1A/B Goalie
- Oh my God, you can't trade that guy, Adams should be fired if he traded him
- the Coaching Staff sucks and the team will go nowhere with them
- why are you trading a playing asset for a future...they need to make the playoffs now
-screw the system, the players can't play Defense..just lean into all Offense All the time
-this player x,y &z doesn't know how to play D, get rid of them and trade for guys who can
Get a grip guys, lol. The boys aren't going anywhere this year, nor next year unless changes are made...significant changes.
Learning how to defend your net isn't a luxury... It is a requirement. Take the losses now while teaching this friggin team how to defend properly. 2nd G last night had Power and Johnson watching Kraken players slide into the slot to bang home a goal.
Rant done.

They needed those last year, they need more now, these issues are compounding each loss.
For the bolded:
Thinking this losing is due to the team learning defense...the coach and the captain publicly admitted to abandoning the discipline/conviction required to play a defensive game a month ago, focusing on defense is not what they are doing. |

Looks to me they just lost CONVICTION! A bunch of week minded players who quit when things aren't going there way. |

Their leadership, the GM, doesn't even try before the season begins.
Weak mindsets start at the top, as I know you agree. |

Really F@cked the Pooch here 39, atleast Eichel waited a couple years to quit. Better change it quickly. IMO if they don't we are looking at 2-3yrs again as more good players leave or ask out. |

To be clear, I am not defending the Coaching Staff nor am I of the belief that they are in any learning process.
I've said it before and it rings true that they are playing pond hockey..and that is a reflection of a coaching staff that is so far in over their head it is friggin comical at this point.
Ii watched for maybe 15 minutes last night before turning it off...same old poop different team..let them walk right in order some crumpets and tea in front of our net.
Adams needs to step in and fire everyone on the staff..if he needs to save Granto cause of the 2 year extension ...then get competent Asst's and make Donnie a friggin cheer leader |

The team has quit already, they know they suck:
"I think there was frustration, but I’m more concerned with some of the doubt there," said Granato. "And it’s not doubt in your ability, it’s more of a fear of losing, of failure. And that consumed us more than the excitement of, ‘OK, so what? We’re down two. Look up and down this lineup, we can score, we can get after it.’"

Understood and well said.
Of all things, we should have confidence in his ability to do that as he has already done it.

That’s exactly how it felt watching the game. They completely threw in the towel |
