So Lou just signed someone worse than Josh Leivo for 4 years.
At least he looks like Rick Nash in that photo?

And really, did Tavares have any other choice then to leave NYI? I don't think so...Frank E said:Boychuk at $6m for another 4 years, Ladd at $5.5 for another 5 years...

I wonder if Briere will continue to work with some of the Marlies guys on a private coaching basis.

It would have gotten in the way of signing Matt Martin and Leo Komarov.
herman said:Burke and Nonis had a similar take when running the Leafs regarding analytics, but if I recall correctly, they were being inundated with stat companies trying to break into the league by offering proprietary metrics. For the mathematically disinclined, yeah, it can definitely impede your decision making (that had proven itself effective previously). At a certain age, when you?re maybe leaning towards cementing a legacy, going out on a limb that you cannot prove the load-bearing capabilities of is quite challenging.
So it is entirely understandable to me why there is resistance to change, especially to a movement/philosophy that is perceived to be out to tell everyone (and by extension you) has been wrong this whole time re: grit, fighting, hits, blocking, slapshots from the point, dressing room character, WASP values, etc.
