As a longtime fan of one of VGK's division rivals, I have to admit that I resent that they were so successful their first couple of years. No matter the sport, success for an expansion team ought to be a reward that comes after suffering and hard work.

    I think at this point if I were a player I’d rather go somewhere like Winnipeg or Buffalo before Vegas. Sure it may not be Las Vegas but in those places I know (most of the time) they treat their player like people, not video game characters.
    I think what helped Vegas was the fact it was “Vegas”. Now if you want to live in the desert, Arizona might be a better place to go because you know they’ll keep you and not be like in Vegas where you could be the best player on the team, the face of the franchise, loved by all their fans all the while looking behind you to make sure management doesn’t stab you in the back and trade you.

They marketed the heck out of him and he was a poster child and then ignorant fans that got overly attached had a hissy fit. If they could have been healthy last year, it would have been interesting... Half the starters out with freak injuries...

      i know seattle fans love francis , but at some point the team will need to replace him with someone who can make trades and do a better job at drafting . i speak of this cause im a canes fan and know francis very well . bean , fleury , hanifin , skinner , lindholm , Murphy , all players no longer with the canes because they could not push the pace to help them win , the only mainstays from the francis era are aho , necas , and pesce . 3 guys , slavin was a rutherford pick . and typically later round picks take 3 to 4 years of development in order to make it to the nhl . i hope it works out for seattle though . and that francis learned from his mistakes when he was in carolina .

    The Pietrangelo deal was the sign that they might had lost it, before that they had a clear identity and were built as such towards winning.

Don Waddell and others deserve a lot of recognition for what they did and they didn’t give up much either. (Lorentz who is a solid 4th liner, Eetu Makiniemi is a good goalie prospect, and a 3rd round pick) thats all they gave up lmao. What a steal. Hopefully this means they can finally reach the SCF.

    Looks like the Vegas fans have gotten the reverse expansion experience. Usually, it's a dumpster fire of a team that climbs its way to respectability. Here, it's a respectable team's descent into a dumpster fire. I have to admit though, there's a fascination watching all of this and cheering it on. If you have no loyalty to the players. There's going to be no loyalty coming back. Who's going to want to bleed for this team if as soon as the next shiny thing appears, they're out the door?

They clearly have no loyalty and I think you are right people won’t want to go there. This team is a sinking ship and some management needs to be fired. I don’t know if Butch can turn them around.
