that's the problem with fans not getting the fact the tanking will not fix and cure everything, not only the lottery makes it harder but the fact the players in the draft class have to be good, cant be drafting provys, jvrs, and patricks and it will fix everything. that's why this organization is preaching patience because it's not going to be easy and the fact is alot of teams in our division are really good, we just have to hope that teams in our division eventually take a step back and we eventually take the mantle. just tearing it down in this division is a death sentence.

accept tippett and forester, i think everyone is on the block, we need to get rid of the big contracts and alot of cap space to get this team back into contention, . that's why the redwings are playing well, they have a ton of cap space to sign players, we dont have much and we are stuck with an ahl squad on our back end, that's why we are taking a step back, not enough depth.

i think trading tk makes sense because of needing contract extension and we have alot of right wingers in the system, frost has to go as well, we need players playing on their elcs, so we can get elite talent especially if we have to buy which more likely that option because of the rigged lottery system.

do you understand anything that drafting anyone isnt going to help this team right now because they need time to develop? this is why this management isnt forcing young players on the roster because they are not ready or they are not good. for some reason, you cant let go of the prospect obsession hoarding and think that it will make a cup contender and that the they have been doing the same crap for decades, what about changing the philosophy and adding players that can play now and maybe this team can finally win a cup like what is so wrong about doing it this way instead of doing it the same way for decades of prospect hoarding and it hasnt worked?

whatever, they are not tanking deal with it.

sabres tanked no playoffs for a decade, oilers tanked for almost 20 years no cups, maple leafs have two number overall no cups, it doesnt work for them, what makes you think it will work for us?

then dont watch them, what's stopping you? you want this guy and that guy and that doesnt work then what, just keeping losing until you get your way in two decades like how are you going to happy when watching hopeless hockey and not making the playoffs every year? how is that building anything?

you are just flyers hater and you always were.

they have to go after goalie in the offseason, i mean they have to get an upgrade because we lost hart and we have no clue on how our goalie prospects are going to pan out and they probably arent ready for a couple of years, maybe an ullmark, swayman? i dont know.

i dont care what anyone says frost has to be moved, he's terrible, makes the same mistakes over and over again, he's not going to be a future center on this roster, he's getting moved this summer.

we have to get bigger at the forwards position, there's too many small forwards that's why matthews is able to get by us so easy.

i really wish tank washed fans would just playoff hockey and ask themselves why doesnt great offenses win Stanley cups? even briere and jones are the ones that have been through playoffs and having success all the time, they know for the fact that great offenses dont win championships otherwise briere wouldnt have hired torts.

do you think the hart news derailed this team?

i think fans have to face reality of the fact that the nhl has been against us for a long time and no matter what we do, we wont get a franchise superstar through the draft i believe michy will be but when it comes to first overall picks it's not going to happen because they wont let us have it, the only possible way is that we get one through fa or trades, there's no other way.

tampa is outplaying us, we just dont have enough talent right now, i mean it would be great to make the playoffs but we are far away from a cup team, tippett is missed big time.
