[QUOTE="GILL-INOIS, post: 1977990, member: 747818"] Quotes from Armstrong since the firing "If I get fired in the next hour or I get hit by a bus, I don't feel today I left this roster any better than I found (when I got here in 2008)," said Armstrong. "You come in to a organization to make it better and you want to leave it in a better spot." "I feel personally responsible for the situation that we're in this and I also hope that the people that I just talked to personally feel responsible too. If they don't, that's their decision." Local fans are ticked off. I can live with getting value back for Tarasenko and O'Reilly(right moves) last season. Problem is you are stuck with a lot of mediocre talent and especially those D contracts where majority have no trade clauses. Armstrong was trying to stay competitive and should have traded more pieces off in the offseason. I don't enjoy losing but if they need to move pieces to get more effort out of guys than all for it.
