Does anyone think we could re-sign Simmonds at a real discounted rate? After his last 2 seasons and his dismal if any playoff performances he couldn't be that big on demand. Thoughts?

If he accepts 4th line money and a 4th line role i wouldn't mind getting him back but i am ready for change and if we dont resign him i wouldn't mind that either.

And the good part is he's still valuble as A PP guy and if he is healthy you could move him around to fill in for hurt guys. IDK just a thought.

His rankings are spread out from 50 to 14 thats a pretty big gap.
True but it says he started out injured so maybe he's more towards the top end. Seems like a lot of good upside but you never know til they get here lol.

He has a lot of head coaching experience so i guess thats good as we could use some experience but i just read we are keeping Ian Laperriere
Wait. Wut? Keeping Lappy? Ugh!

Therrien - meh. never really liked him as a head coach, but maybe he's OK as an assistant

Yeo - Can't say I follow the west very closely, but he got pretty poor results in Minnesota and was just short of a disaster in St Louis IMO.

Lappy - Should've been fired 2 years ago. Retaining him is indefensible IMO.

Should be interesting with 3 guys that were previously head coaches all on the staff though. That's a lot of coaching experience, I think Meltz tweeted it's over 2500 games between them. Yeo and Therrien did good things in Pittsburgh, so maybe that carries over.

I just read that. I'm trying to be optimistic here, but damn after reading about previous failures and keeping Laps, makes me want to guzzle down some Crown Royal.

Yup. Exactly my thoughts. I can find ways to get optimistic about Yeo and Therrien, but man keeping Lappy looks bad.
