SinBin.vegas Podcast #275: Pacioretty For Nothing

Ken I’ll give you an example of excellence versus the Knights ineptness. I was born and raised in Cleveland but left in 1963 to go in the service and then came to Las Vegas in 1965.I was since 1950 and still am a Cleveland baseball fan but there other teams I could care less. You look at Cleveland’s payroll I guess you could compare it in hockey to the Ottawa owners tight budget and see what there management team has accomplished and you wouldn’t be so quick to praise the Knights management team. Clevelands baseball never makes a mistake whether it’s trades or drafting and have probably the best farm system and the youngest team in baseball and they competitive on the fourth lowest payroll. They’ll be in the World Series conversation for years to come because there loaded with talent on a beer budget where most other teams payroll look more like a champagne budget. If they were in control of the Knights with Foley as a deep pocket spender we’d already have a couple of Stanley Cups.
You can keep on the rose colored glasses but the mistakes after the first year the management have made put them is a position that this year they’ll be lucky to make the playoffs. So for me I no better about what a management team should be and they should take a serious look at the way The Cleveland Guardians have built a team.
