How is Buffalo still such a massive tire fire?
Is Hall that much of a negative energy in a dressing room? How many good seasons have his teams had? One good season in NJ?

I was looking at their roster a few days back wondering the same thing. On paper they are a pretty damn good team :
Jack Eichel
Taylor Hall
Rasmus Dahlin
Victor Oloffson
Jeff Skinner
Sam Reinhart
Brandon Montour
Kyle Okposo
Rasmus Ristolainen
Cody Eakin
Eric Staal
Obviously some of the players I listed above haven’t been good this season but a couple were 2 seasons removed from being good players.
I feel like they have had a terrible time developing their talent, I remember seeing how sure fire good Casey Middlestat was going to be.
Will Dylan Cozens go down that route of being ruined staying in that organization?
Like I look at that roster and feel that’s a much better team than one that loses 13 games in a row.

The only positive it that they should beat the Oilers record for missing the playoffs in consecutive years.

Definitely some talent up front...but probably not the right combination of guys. Those Okposo & Skinner contracts are absolutely atrocious too.
A team like Winnipeg in need of 3 more dmen to truly contend should try prying one of their blueliners.
Oilers should try snagging one/two of those forwards not named Taylor Hall as well.
