Claimed:A Tough Situation [Reviewed]


Recommended Posts

Coming in to the GM role, Komarov knew it would be a tough road ahead. Dealing with egos, and a team as well as fan base that has seen the franchise go from cup aspirations to bottom feeders. Previous GMs, left the team high and dry which has hurt the stock of Davos in the eyes of many. That showed the most in the last two days, when the former 3rd overall pick and 8th overall pick were dealt. Neither expressed desire to stay,and it had created a toxic locker room which Komarov knew he could not have. The return for both is less than steller, a first 2 years from now, some role players, mid round picks, and a suspended top prospect. Many are calling for his head, they believe he is steering the team down the wrong path. However he has added depth, both Dope Fiend,and Cain Mercer are expected to be called up this year, Both expecting to fill roles on the defense, well Komarov looks like he will follow down the path of his father next year going to defense.

 

Still even with Kai Roberts likely to man the second line with Komarov and Adultman,Covington on the first many questions arise. There is always the fear of egotistical superstar William Covington leaving next year via FA. Which begs the question, how do they dig themselves out of this funk? The answer Komarov stated was in himself, and he blames himself for the failed draft. I didnt do my reaserch like i did last year, unfortuntely neither were really my top choices, but they are who fell and we needed their type of players. Komarov came to me and stated he will become the corner stone of our defense next season,till then we have a few stop gaps. Hopefully next year with a strong push in free agency, we can suprisea few people. It sucks what i have had to deal with, and repairing this franchises rep is far from and easy task. However i still am confident in my own abilitys as GM, I may have been dealt a shitty hand, but that does not mean im done.If Covington wants to bail that is his choice and i wish him all the best, but ill make sure he regrets that choice. Im a very open person,any player knows they can come to me with anything. GMs they know im a very approachable guy who will always try to give them my full attention when talking trade or anything. I like to think my rep is that of the teams, i hope people see me and want to play for my team.

 

Im very honest, always willing to do what is best for my team and my players. Ive gone out of my way to accomidate, everyones needs i wish Digital, and Klingberg all the best, hopefully they wont hurt too much when i lift the cup over my head as a GM. My goal hasnt changed, im sure there is some doubters out there i have seen it, the reactions to the trades. That does not mean my goals changed, that doesnt mean im giving up, it just means those men who walked out when things got tough, they were not worthy of wearing Davos purple. To anyone whose ever told me they dont want to play here, i wish you all the best, but you bet your ass when Davos gets going there will be nothing in our way. We are Davos united, those who choose to play here and stick through this tough times i promise you i will do everything in my power to reward you with cups, with trophies. I bleed Davos purple, i bleed for my players, and i will continue to do so untill this team becomes a contender once again.

If I was in your ear I would've told you that some personalities stay the same and not worth the trouble. That being said the hard road will continue to be hard unless some core members are acquired.
