Here is the issue, Drury is too scared, afraid, and doesn't have the balls to deal a guy like Igor. I fully maintain, when you have a goalie making that much money it is very difficult to win a Cup. History shows that to be the case outside of Bob last season. Also, if your team is not good the goalie really doesn't matter, and if you have holes to fill, it is more difficult to fill those holes with a huge cap hit goalie.
Now that the team is an absolute disaster, sure Drury will make some moves because he has no choice, and it's easy now as everyone knows it needs to be done. The pressure is off in a weird way because if you F up it doesn't matter as the team is already a trainwreck. A real Pres/GM, one that isn't in over his head, scared, and afraid would have made the needed moves BEFORE the mess and before he had no choice. In many ways it was an absolute dereliction of duty to bring this team back. Maybe not everyone saw this core was done and had to be broken up after the loss to Florida, but I clearly saw it and called it out loudly, and if I could see it BEFORE the mess, Drury certainly could have and should have, it's his f'ing job.
Bottom line is, now that he has no choice and it's the only play, he'll make moves, and that's bush league and weak. If he had balls, he would have had the foresight to make the moves before the piano dropped. Real leaders are proactive, not reactive. It shows weakness and a lack of confidence to be reactive and act from a position of weakness, and that sums up Drury perfectly IMO.
