    Thank God Ukraine aid has passed!! 

    Never should have taken this long, but the Putin wing of the Republican party can be difficult to overcome. The way they parrot Putin’s propaganda is traitorous imo.

    It has been clear for some time Terry needs some more cash. I think he is likely over invested in sports and the Harbor Center and doesn't have enough liquidity. 

    "Nothing to see here I am not selling anything everything is cool. The years of a leaking roof, keeping the scoreboard for 2x the factory recommendations, bottom half spending across the NHL for a few years, and getting out of any major contractual obligations are just happenstance" - Terry Pegula

    "I am selling stuff"- Also Terry Pegula

    It isn’t sports and Harbor center, it’s his gamble on investing heavily in SPACs (Special Purpose Acquisition Company) the last few years. Inflation, high interest rates, and other economic factors have caused many investors to cash in their chips and bail out.

    There were only 4 players who truly improved year over year - JJP, Quinn, UPL and Joki.  Not surprisingly UPL and Joki need new contracts.  

    This past season feels like the curse of Ralph Krueger.

    Sign UPL obviously, but Joker could leave and we wouldn’t miss a beat. He’s a third pair at best. At best.

    It was my impression Adams had balanced off their smaller scouting staff by redeploying those resources into the analytics and player development staffs.

    Is that not the case?

    How do they now rank in terms of the amount of bodies in the overall hockey department?

    If my memory is correct part of the bloodletting when Kevyn was hired was due to Pegula thinking the hockey department was loaded with people who didn't do much. (A conclusion I think was fuelled by a review done by a pre-GM Adams.)

    That fits with when/why they dipped from 4th to 32nd.

     

    Adams was hired because Boterrill refused to adhere to the new pandemic austerity measures and fire scouts and others in hockey ops. It was a surprise because only week’s earlier, he received a strong vote of confidence from Kim Pegula.

    The question among Philly fans is where is he and what's wrong with him? Nobody seems to know. 

    To all the people who said Kane would suck if we signed him, 47 pts. in 49 games or something like that so I guess his hip is okay. 

    I got the first round match ups I wanted. Hate the Leafs always, Bruins are my B team, can't ask for more than that. Florida should also be a total war. Going to be some good hockey. 

    Bruins are my second most hated team, but I’ll be rooting for them to sweep my first most hated team in the playoffs.
