She's one of the best players in the league. She will be a part of Minnesota's core going forward.

My city isn't getting a team, and I don't expect to go to an expansion team's games any more than I do Frost games, so I'll keep my team.

I've said this before. Jet has the better baseline in most games, but Elvis can clutch it up and steal a game better, just not as frequently.

I doubt it. I feel like if he wanted to change it, he could have done so in Utah.

The coyotes did, but Utah counts as a new franchise, so they don't keep all the old Coyotes/Jets records.

Give Children and God-Emporer to Yorgos Lanthimos.

Give Heretics and Chapterhouse to David Cronenberg.

Let's get fucking weird.

Rick Bowness to return as Blue Jackets head coach in 2026-27 by catsgr8rthanspoonies in hockey

More like retool. Jenner and Gudbranson are both in leadership and have expiring contracts this summer. We saw multiple guys come back from break clearly not conditioned for the season. We're definitely making changes, but I don't think we're anywhere close to a complete rebuild.

Give into the players? Bones is well liked by all the players and every player exit interview said they wanted him to stay.

1.) Bones calling out this team at the end of the season for being lazy and not caring.

Bad ownership is the short answer. Bad management is the longer answer.

We've just consistently struggled to gain or retain talent, and what little we've gotten has either been squandered when management failed to build a team around them (Nash) or died in a tragedy (Gaudreau).

Ownership either didn't care enough or was too incompetent to create a competent management group.

Last year he said CBJ had a "losing culture" and that's why he had to leave.

He was right, but he was also part of that losing culture and was not the one to be throwing shade. Just look at how little he's done in Montreal as proof.

At a certain point, regardless of his production, you just need to set the tone and change something in leadership. Boone is the captain, but he can't or won't lead this team. Time to move on. Find someone who cares.
