Amazing that fans constantly being sold dog turds and having it be called "treats" arent willing to engage with the new turds. Only a moron does what the CB GM did at Christmas.

The price paid to add veterans:
2nd and 3rd in 2023 for Biggar 1st 2024, 2nd 23, 2nd 24, 2nd 25 for Schmitt 4th 2023 for Roy Repcik 4th 23 for Satny
In a season where this is potentially a bottom 5 team there has been an entire draft worth of picks traded to surround our younger players with veterans.
But since the trades the team actually has a higher GAA since the trades (4.06 to 4.30 GAA by my math) and before the deals the team had 6 games where it gave up 6+ and since the trades has 7 games with 6+.
Of those 13 games...6 have been against SJ or Bathurst the worst 2 teams in the league. In 1/10th of our games we've been lit up by the worst 2 teams in the league. This team has 2 veteran goaltenders an overager on D, traded to add 2 veterans on the back end, has the leagues #1 overall pick who is a top D prospect and the leagues worst teams regularly manage to outwork them.
What more do you say at this point?

guys , have to agree ,looks like the coaches lost control of it .what does the president do now ? The Coach (not coaches) lost control of it months ago, what you have now is a classic example of the the tail wagging the dog. Watching Ivan run around the ice making a fool of himself night after night is actually becoming quite entertaining. For a kid trying to get a pro-deal, he is certainly building a great case for himself, the only one in the building he doesn't shit on, on any give night is the zamboni driver and that is likely coming. If our President has a set of balls, Goyens will not be on the bench Friday and a few or our vets will be healthy scratches. Send a message to the fan base that dignity is more important then a classless attempt at winning.

Send a message to the fan base that dignity is more important then a classless attempt at winning. Which vets? You are badly overplaying the 2 OA and a 17 year old line (though they are playing well). Your second line is Newcombe, Houde and Boutin, who are arguably overachieving as a whole. After that, guys sometimes play, and they sometimes play with their linemates, but Roy is your only bottom 6 vet, and he's the least skilled of your bottom 6. The problems with this team come back to a self-inflicted problem from earlier in the year. Yes, Ivan is good, but he's not Euro AND OA good. There's no way that Repcik would have been a sticking point on a Satny trade, so you could have had Repcik and an OA FW for more depth if the team so chose. I didn't watch the full game, but noted in the first game of the two that SJ's fourth liners (Benoit and Casey) seemed to be playing more than Shields, which is inexcusable.

Our lines change every period, sometimes twice a period, it's a complete mess. Each and every night it's desperate stab at 2pts where players coach and coaches juggle lines in order to make vets happy. Shields, if that kid is in an Eagles jersey next season I will be shocked.

You also have to start wondering where someone like Squires' head is after these 2 seasons. The vets brought in have been major disappointments. We were the ONLY team Schmitt could really go to at the time that deal was made if you break down who had assets and where he wanted to go. We gave up 4 assets and he's been average. Absolutely no sign of being a dominant defenceman. Can he be that over the next 2 years? Sure. But like I said at the time of that deal....how many players his age will pass him on the development curve between xmas and his overage season? Biggar...same thing. Only he cost less because he's older. Going into 2 games vs SJ you'd think for guys like that those would be viewed as games to pad their stats. Biggar had 0+0=0 was -2 and had 2pim Schmitt had 0+1 was +1 Meanwhile SJ"s few leaders are out there actually leading....Desroches and Reynolds both show up for both games and actually lead their team. $10 tickets will fill the rink on Friday but the damage being done here is unreal after what last season was and what we could have set ourselves up for coming out of the draft a year ago. But our leaders show no leadership....on and off the ice.

Even if our President did have a Set of Balls , he has to run that by Simon Sez because Goings is gonna get paid for the whole length of the contact by him not Shaw . Now do I agree with you ? At this point of the Season ? Why Bother ......over the Summer ? I wouldn't have a problem with it , myself and many others are tiring of his constant Spin Doctoring . Somewhere along the line here we have to get some stability back there behind the Bench and I cant help but go back to Simon's 1st Press Conference when he promised World Class This and World Class That and he has yet to deliver on any of those Promises .

Oh and I guess its time to say it...but Lavoie doesn't exactly look like a #1 overall pick that should be a top NHL prospect next year. He's never been able to find consistency this season that lasts beyond a game or 2 vs weaker competition.
Sly's entire build towards winning in Bathurst was 100% reliant on Noah Dobson being the most dominant defenceman in the league or close to it.
Lavoie is only even getting the ice time he is now because of where he was drafted but like every veteran he sees around him...he doesn't have to earn ice time to play for this coach.

any town halls scheduled this week? 3 more losses and i'm sure they'll have a meeting where they tell us how poor fan attendance is and listing a depth chart of kids who this GM will have traded by round 6 of the draft.
