Foligno might have been good for their room, but they would have been way better off spending double the money.

on similar term, to get an Alex Killorn or a guy who could then be sold with retention.

Like, they got... What did they get?

I just think they are bad at this.

Like, I think Lev Shunov over Demidov is...

like it's it's an awkward that's an awkward situation but it's yeah it's a very awkward situation because they haven't done it well like they tore it down to the studs and they probably went a little bit too far to be totally honest with you and then they panicked and were like well we need NHL players we need NHL players and they settled for like just a bunch of garden variety like

you know, meh offensive players who don't have juice or size, or... It was like the summer of signing the fourth line here, where all those guys got term and money.

Look, when you don't have a plan, it shows.

Because in addition to that, they're not maximizing who their best guys are, which I think is a real, like...

it wasn't fated that nick suzuki would be this or that cole caulfield would be like when you have a plan it shows and it shows in the performance of your best guys and it shows in how well you draft and it shows in the fact that you don't make absurd like i know canucks fans think i'm harsh on volander if we if lev shunov was a canuck

And Canucks fans were, like, all excited and patient with him despite mistake after mistake after mistake, night after night after night.

Like, Lev Shunov can't hang right now.

At all.

And they took him over Demidov.

And it was a mistake the day they made the pick.

And it looks way worse today.

I just don't think they know what they're doing.

And yet, it feels like, so here's the risk that we're going to bump into.

I know.

I can already see it coming.
