I’ve tempered my expectations. Even with Svech, it was unlikely we were going to win a cup this year. I do think we are set up nicely next year. After that, Dundon and Waddell have some big decisions to make.

Fire Waddell. This team was the best team all year and we didn’t do poo except add 2 fuging scrubs in ghost and pool bath. Now we look lost.  When you have a window. You double down. That piece of $hit GM fuged us by being cheap. Now the hole is massive.

Yep. Waddell counted on everyone to stay healthy, including Svech, instead of getting a big scorer at the trade which we needed to replace Pacioretty .

From the information available, we tried to make a splash at the TDL. You’re also underestimating the influence Rod has on some of these decisions. I also think the value we have on some of our prospects is a little higher than other organizations around the league. The team clearly values an extended window over mortgaging the future for now. I’m inclined to agree with them.

I’d rather have 1 cup than 3 years of playoff flameouts.

I’d rather have 10 consecutive opportunities of winning the cup than pushing all of our chips in for one slightly higher chance. 
 

If we paid the price for a big time trade and didn’t win the cup, and the captial it cost to make that trade cost us our playoff window, you would be screaming for Waddell and Dundon’s head. 
 

We have a good thing going. Next year, we are going to be the team with the cap space and draft picks/prospects to make the big trade. NJD/NYR/Boston/Tor are all capped out and not in a position to trade more of their future.

I’d rather win a a cup. Just being  in the conversation will put us in the playoffs. This team is toast.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
