I think the missing context is the first half of those trades besides Muzzin were about repairing the bad cap situation left by previous administrations
Some weird results for a few of these. The Muzzin and Zaitsev trades were absolutely wins. I’m surprised the Murray trade is polling 50/50, I’d call that a loss (should’ve been able to get a better asset for taking on Murray’s contract)
The immediate, reactionary shock and fear of losing Dubas has now been replaced with a willingness for most fans to critically assess his tenure. I’m very happy to see it.
The sky is not falling.
Hind sight is 20/20. Having said that, looking at it the way the Twitter thread illustrates, it seems pretty even, though i dont agree with all the poll results. Some wins and some losses. The issue I have is that the losses seem to be to cover up for previous signings or trades that didn’t work out.
The Sandin trade is one that may look like a disaster or may look brilliant in the future. Depending on his health and development. It reminds me of the Stralman move, to be honest.
So we got a third and seventh rd pick for taking on Murray contract, but the cost now for dumping his contract is now a first rd pick. So 45% of leaf fan consider that a win?
