It's very rare for a DT to be a star in year one, especially when the guy was playing injured for half the season. It's absolutely ridiculous that some people have already written Butler him off as a bust.

Agree. Lots of knee jerk stuff.  Take our new DE Dawson Hall as an example.  Everyone knows he is a project but when he screws up this year he will be labeled.   CJ was also a 3rd round pick (I think?). It took him about 3 seasons to really breakthrough and blow up.

Pep is a Freak. He's old but Still more athletic than a Lot of guys in this league. Big thing is he has matured. Really think he has one last big hoorah this year here. He is better fit for a 4-3 hands down DE anyways (kinda similar to Jarred Allen struggling in the Chicago 3-4)

yep!

      Fire Rod

      I agree that roster construction is a bigger issue than Rod.  I don't know what coach behind the bench is winning this series.  We weren't even supposed to compete this year, but people are mad because we're getting swept in the ECF again.  If we lost in 7 last round people wouldn't feel that way.

      And I won't even get into our forward lines... We have three legit forwards in aho, Svech, and Jarvis and a bunch of grinders. There is a reason why we have a hard time putting the puck in the net - nobody on this team knows how to shoot

      I was more inclined to say fire rod last year than this year. I still think we are lacking significant talent on this team. Without chatty, our defense has old man burns who is washed, ghostbear who is a one-way player, orlov who makes numerous awful turnovers each game, a solid walker, and slavin. I think we are all definitely mad that nikishin didn't play, but we weren't winning this game with them anyway. The entire team came out flat, which is inexcusable at home down a game. If rod couldn't fire them up, I don't think any coach in the NHL does.  Florida is the worst possible matchup for us because they play very similar to us but are better at doing it. It sucks we're going to get swept, but I honestly thought this team was a fringe at best playoff team once we traded away mikko
