and The Hockey Guy ranked them 32nd in his early season power rankings 🙂

32 Thoughts today led off with Buffalo talk and the suggestion even Ruff has checked out already. Season is over. 

The one thing TP did do was set himself up for an easy hire upon firing. Jarmo would take the GM job and he's already on the payroll. You know it's coming, it's just when and how. Will it matter? who knows. can't be much worse. 

Jarmo already had a GM spot with Columbus and it was nothing to write home about. A big fat negative to me. This entire front office, including scouts, coaches and assistant coaches need to go. The entire culture has to change. Way too many people just taking paychecks doing a ***** job. Look at the scouting department. With as many picks this team has had they have tons of misses. The prospects should be much better than this. I would go so far to replace the strength and conditioning coaches as well.

We keep coming back to the bold every couple years.

I hear you but since he's here I see that as the obvious hire for Terry. What other experienced hockey guy would take the job? Cliff Fletcher? Brian Burke? Hextall? Nobody out there on the unemployment line I'd hire as GM.

But this is why I said in the other thread Give it over to Jarmo and let him hire Torts as coach (just like Columbus). This is not because I think Torts can take us to the promised land but I think maybe, just maybe, he could change the culture and do the "subtraction" phase. EVERYTHING needs to change and that's the sort of shock to the system it might require.
