I guess another horrendous year under a new coach, with some of the worst puck possession stats in the league again, and their worst attendance in 6 years has finally convinced Sakic that his core isn’t as good as he stubbornly believed and needs to be changed. Sadly, it can really only get worse for Colorado, because once Sakic starts dealing, he’s going to get even less value in return based on his history of poor trades. What once looked like an incredibly promising young team in Colorado has quickly circled the drain.

I don’t believe this lies solely on Joe Sakic. He does have some impressive players that need to make it click. If not, then perhaps it’s time to part with some of them. I have confidence in Mr. Sakic and this team will thrive once again.

I agree it’s not on Sakic that some of the young players haven’t really elevated their games in the last 2-3 years. It just seems like most of their young players all kind of peaked at young ages and haven’t really improved since. MacKinnon especially hasn’t really developed like most thought, this is a guy that was almost as touted as McDavid when he was drafted, yet has already been bypassed by several other younger players in production.
