He ultimately decided to waive to go to Long Island.

So I think sort of just handcuffing himself with giving those out

And then, like I said earlier, I think failing to land Quinn Hughes was kind of it for him.

I think it was the worst-kept secret in hockey that Quinn wanted to play with his brothers.

He wanted out of Vancouver.

And just the fact that he's not able to get that deal done, it's just like, what are you doing, man?

Yeah, that's fair.

That's fair, for sure.

I know, 100%.

Dude, that happened second week of December.

It's crazy.

Well, second week of December, this was before the season needed salvaging.

That was still like, okay, they're still in the playoffs.

Jack's still hurt, but there's still three months left.

This was pre-alarm bells going off, but when that trade happened,

The Devils went on a massive skid, and I saw some stat like two months after that where Minnesota was like the highest scoring team in the league since then, and the Devils were like second and fourth.

I mean, I didn't have, I didn't have a huge problem with that at all.

And to me on the scale of like issues, like that Dougie contract, when he gave it out compared to fumbling, getting Quinn Hughes is like a one out of 10 where fumbling Quinn is a 10 out of 10.

No, I wouldn't say that.

I definitely wouldn't say that.
