The Great Reset

[conundrumed]

Sadly, I think our lads really needed this break.

It really makes me go back to Sutter's words with 30 guys left in camp. "They'll all be Flames this year".

The schedule (at least with my bias) has been pretty close to relentless. I like lots of games right out of the gate to get your game together, but I honestly think this was way too much for most teams/players. Completely over-the-top. The Olympics are just a really bad idea, or cut 10 games off of schedules.

I'm glad we have a really experienced coach to see the sked and go, JFC, keep prospects on standby. And he knows he needs Gudbranson's and Zadorov's. I'd go out on a limb and say that he's actually protecting Valimaki's development from this bs schedule.

So let's reset and get back to kicking the Satoshi Nakamoto out of everyone.

Sadly, the cup team has become, "who can circumvent the cap best"? Just like over-coaching 3-on-3 OT into ruins.
