Damn Ozzy, I'm disappointed/surprised to see you've given up on your future Selke Trophy dream already. 

[RichieNextel305]

Wow. Great job Dru.

 

Dumped that contract and attached nothing too valuable to do so.

There's definitely value in those picks.  We acquired Fox for two 2nd's

[RJWantsTheCup]

Needed to be done.

I initially looked at that post the same way Karan did but then I saw the source and realized how you meant it 

[Valriera]

Drury winning GM of the year so far.

Value is relative. They need the cap room now more than they need 2025 and 2026 lottery tickets.

[Ozzy]

I think Kakko and Motte are all that's left on the table for us now, am I right?

I agree but it's not nothing.  I'm not even thinking about the players that might get drafted with those picks.  It's the value that those picks have at the trade deadline that we lose out on because Nemeth was such a scrub.

[RodrigueGabriel]

Emberson played with K'Andre at WI. I don't know if they were D partners, but he must've gotten that endorsement anyway.

That’s some bad GMing right there

Signing Nemeth in the first place was bad GMing. Paying to dump him because you need the cap room now really isn't. It's correcting a mistake.

[Sharpshooter]

I had no issue signing him necessarily, but they gave him, what, three years? That was the absurd part.

[Valriera]

The deal was fine when he signed it - he just turned out to be absolutely awful. Otherwise, he would have made a solid 3rd pairing guy who is an insurance policy that can slot up if needed. He turned out to not even make the team most nights.

Nah, it’s compounded his original bad move with another one.

He just took a double minor for high stick because he turned the puck over and subsequently didn’t move his feet to defend. 

 

and idgaf about draft picks. 

[Slobberknocker]

this had to be done.  better than a buy out.

[Slobberknocker]

we sure seem to do a lot of business with the yotes

[Cash or Czech]

Do we sign a different UFA LHD or let Robertson and Jones fight it out?

Yeah. Bad GMing would be refusing to admit you made a mistake for 2 more seasons. Every GM makes mistakes. The bad ones double down on them as if they are so sure it was never a mistake.

latter to start the year and see how it goes Schnieder grew into the role for us mid season and we want the same to happen, but if it doesnt we can work the deadline.

Exactly this. More than that, he paid to correct the mistake. I'd call that good GMing.

Maybe. I'd be fine with a veteran signing. Just nothing like Nemeth. One year. Journeyman.
