Honestly. that's not a bad way to go out. Watch Washington hire Therrien or something
Of course that will be the big gimmick. Theyre never going to fix the game.

Wouldn't say it's a shock at all. Rierden was always his successor. Keep in mind that McPhee hired Trotz and that Caps current GM MacLellan brought in Rierden.
Trotz leaving was expected and he wanted to go too. He pretty much told Torts that when they shook hands after the Columbus series.
I also think the Caps players knew he wasn't coming back too so this most likely brought the team together during their Cup run.
Do you not think these team scouts' BPA judgments are prejudiced by organizational need?
Gives them another excuse to wear those sick ass fedoras.
Fucking fedora wearing dorks
"Look at how public your life is going to be! Everyone will bug the shit out of you, and we'll make sure to ruin all your inside jokes with teammates -- just ask Auston, Mitch, Matt, and Patty!"
Dubas going to show JT a video of Marner, Matthews and Nylander performing "We're All In This Together". Luckily, Lou's spies have already alerted him and are going to pre-emptively show Tavares Barzal's rendition of "Stick to the Status Quo".
"Hey John if you sign here they won't be able to afford me so I can go home to Arizona." - Auston
Wait they won't be able to afford him either. Sorry Auston.

I honestly don't think Ottawa will be that bad next season. This is under the assumption Karlsson will be there and Hoffman and his fall foliage will not.
A promotional video like the one Cleveland made to get Bron to stay all those years ago?
How could it not work.
How could it not work.
Marc Crawford couldn't coach Team Canada to a Bronze in Nagano, and while as great as Patty Quinn is and was, he couldn't save Canada from a 7th place finish in Torino.
Big, old, slow teams on larger ice surfaces.
That 2006 team was just... ugh.
Hoffman is only one part of the toxicity in Ottawa. The entire front office appears to be filled with Trump cabinet wannabes who don't respect the players or the fans. What player is gonna wanna give their all in that situation? They need a new owner who will gut everyone.
Really curious to see how free agency pans out for them, with players having to take this circus into consideration when looking into Ottawa.
When you've got a shitty owner, team going nowhere, and cyberbullying on the table, it's hard to ignore.
I can't see Duchene re-signing there after they paid to acquire him.
I think his exit interview had him saying he wants to be there long term, but that was before.. well, everything else.
This is true as well. Will Butcher iced out the avs after our shit season and at the time he had a guaranteed job with good minutes if he signed here. We didn't even have the drama other than Duchene. The shit going on in Ottawa is waaaay harder to ignore.
Yeah, but the team knew about about the Hoffman situation in March, thus before any exit interviews would take place. And the players would have known about this much earlier too.
True, but in the months(!) following the team did nothing to actually rectify the situation, potentially losing a franchise player as a result.
