BREAKING NEWS: Philadelphia Flyers tender 5-year, $18M AAV offer sheet for Ducks RFA forward Leo Carlsson.
Anaheim has 7 days to match, or receive 4 1st round picks in next 5 yrs as compensation.
I never said I expected them to be a Cup contender next season, that would be ridiculous.
My concern is that they won’t become a legitimate contender within the next three years because they’re delaying the inevitable rebuild.
They’ve already traded away draft picks to make the team better in the short term and I’m worried those moves won’t be enough to make them a contender.
If that’s the case, they’ll have sacrificed long term assets without getting what they were hoping for, which could set them back even further
The problem isn’t the moves he’s made this offseason its more about everything leading up to it and the fact that despite his offseason moves this team is still nowhere near a cup contender and may not even be a playoff contender yet he’s mortgaging the future just to save his job

@CorePython That’s obviously what this whole retool was. Just an attempt to save his job and have them sneak into the playoffs hopefully while having no realistic chance to win the cup. Purgatory enables him to keep his job. Some of the moves were you’re standard GMing.
@CorePython I'm watching the "everyone owes Drury an apology" people because every single year they do this on July 1st and a few months later they're calling for his head
Did Drury feel pressure to make win-now moves this summer?
"As I've said in the past, I'm not gonna sit here and put a time on anything. The only timeline I operate on is trying to get better every single day, and looking at ways to get the team better every single day, and we'll continue to do that. We’re certainly excited to add the pieces we did."
