his press conference was exciting for me (tho MacT also said some nice things before making dumb moves, or atleast not smart ones). Chiarelli talking about being heavy without necessarily bringing in big guys sounds nice. bringing in big for the sake of big has always been a pet peeve of mine.
I also had no idea Kelly had a NTC haha how on earth did that happen. Peverley is a good player but didn't he trade Wheeler for him... he does seem to have a good track record with FAs so that's good. maybe he'll offersheet Hamilton this year ;o)
I am worried that hes gonna trade hall for spare parts which would be terrible, but im interested to see what he does with the defense. maybe he'll buy out Nikitin or Ference (the latter seems unlikely tho)
cautious optimism ill say but ya anything is better than what was going on before.
also as a coach that isn't really talked about as much id be super stoked if somehow Bylsma became their next coach. this is obviously not based on anything and he has no ties to chiarelli but I think hes really great and im surprised he still doesn't have a job. maybe he likes the idea of starting off with crosby2.0 again??
