Now that the dust has settled and emotions have cooled, it’s time to discuss what Tom Fitzgerald actually said during his post-trade deadline. Many fans were expecting a sell-off of a few pieces, but were left shocked at 4 pm knowing Fitz had not made a single trade.
Helping us clear up this mess is none other than Deranged Devils fan himself, Pasha Eshghi. We talk all things that went wrong this season, how the deadline presser did nothing to reassure fans, what the future holds as the season winds down, and much more. Surely he will bring some rational thoughts on how Fitzy did, right?

Fitz is delusional! This is the same guy who said “I still believe in this core”, all evidence to the contrary. And Keefe’s decision to start Marky 7 games in a row? I’ve soured on his time here as well. There are so many that need to be shown the door at season’s end, starting with the front office.
So it's Keefe's fault now? Just like it was Lindy's fault and Travis Green's fault. How many coaches will this core be allowed to kill? Fitz is the biggest problem in the organization and it's not even close.
Fitz needs to go Harris and blitzer need to go. Fitz doesn’t trade to make the team better but he trades to try to win said trade. That’s why he didn’t do anything at the deadline. To HBSE this team is a tax write off for them. They don’t care about this team. Give Keefe a new GM next year I think the outcome will be different, give him new owners as well that actually care, this team will be contenders asap.
Fitzgerald being back is just gonna be a complete disaster
For the coaching, I remember Fitz saying he interviewed other candidates who were not NHL coaches, but would be soon. Does that imply an NCAA coach like David Carle?
Fitz took this team from being league average goaltending away from a playoff run to not even able to make the playoffs. Why does he still have a job? If I was this bad at my job I'd be on the unemployment line, where Fitz should have been when he field to get them a goaltender until it was too late like 2 years ago.
Thanks for sharing this, learned a lot.
Fitz has been a disaster since day 1 . He needs to be shown the door asap.
