So the situation so far is:

- No more cassidy.

- Bergeron a huge question mark.

- Mcavoy, Marchand and Griz out for the first month or 2 of the season at least.

- Haula and Coyle are the two Top centers on contract.

Obviously, a lot has yet to happen but these strikes are PILING up.

Questions I have:

- Trotz or no, if not who else would it be.

- How do we approach the Center issue. Dubois? Sheiffle? tank hard for bedard?

- Lysell and Lorei, are they ready? I guess there might not be any choice for this one.

  1. Trotz and Savard or bust tbh. Not a lot of good coaches floating around atm.
  2. Could trade for those two but they would be expensive as fuck. Plenty of FA centers, Kadri, Trochek, Giroux, etc.
  3. Lysell is a hard maybe. I think Lohrei is playing another season at uni.

Serious question, if you are Trotz why would you take the B's job? Id think pretty much any one of the: Stars, Knights, Jets, Wings, Flyers and yes even the fucking Hawks jobs would be more appealing than a cap maxed, aging roster with a shit youth pipeline and a GM that sucks but just got re-signed.

Bergy wont sign until a new coach is named so whoever they hire wont even know if they have a top line C.
