    Kadri and his two way game would be a way better fit as a 2C behind Matthews, and at barely half the price. The savings definitely could have went to blueline upgrades. I get that Tavares was a star player who sort of fell in their lap, and they felt they couldn't pass up that opportunity, but it was not the right move for a young upcoming team.

    Pay your top 3 forwards $30M and blame goaltending after a shutout loss, makes sense.
  3. Not sure if he's around this morning but I don't think he'll mind me dealing a future 6th without him. We can call that a deal
  4. JG 4th rounder next year is our offering
  5. If anyone with a pick remaining is full, we can trade for one more.
  6. SP Francisco Morales - PHI Will msg TCA
  7. Spanky is taking Burl Carraway We are up, just need to check with JFL
  8. I think Spanky is up, L54 hasn't made his last pick yet according to the sheet. Sent a msg to Spankster

    I don't condone actively tanking (young players need to grow in a competitive environment) but there is a cycle to pro sports. Teams like Detroit and Anaheim were strong for many years, were able to supplement their core with strong drafting despite later picks. But eventually it catches up with you and your top end talent ages out. It's very difficult to truly replenish your top end talent in the NHL without early picks. Most of the better teams were bad for a period of time and gained some of their best players in the process. Toronto is only competing right now because they finally decided that they needed a young core to build around. Slowed things down for a couple years and stockpiled assets, hit the mark on their early picks (Matthews, Marner, Rielly etc). If you take issue with building a team in that manner I guess we'll have to agree to disagree.
  10. We have 94 and 114 now. I'll send JG the 2021 pick on Fantrax

    It is a joke that he can end up with one of those teams and not say Detroit, who is crying out for high end talent.
  12. I did what I had to do and I will say no more.
  13. Taking these two picks in exchange for next year's 4th
  14. Trying to use 6th round picks to move up into the top 60 and using a paragraph to explain their value is funny and cringey to me. There shouldn't be wrong with pointing that out. Trying to make that out like I'm being some fantasy baseball warrior is just a ridiculous over reaction- we all know 6th round picks are barely worth s***. That was all I was saying, and again I was speaking about a group and not just myself, plenty of people here who have been punting late round picks long before I was here. You seem to have some idea that I'm trying to drive him out of here? If you read the conversation I clearly said I wouldn't want to lose an active GM. It's an online forum, and I'm just responding to the posts the guy makes here. Not sure which trade you're referring to here, if it's this league than I would have done nothing more than sign off on it, JFL has handled all the trade talks of late.
  15. Sorry you feel that way, I will accept your criticism and move on.
  16. Too long to bother with, so it's insufferable again just on that alone. You'll get there. Also told you it wasnt the one incident but ongoing. You were one of the only Karen's in the thread about board changes who actually thought they needed to make a whiney rant. And I probably shouldn't even say this, but I can't ever imagine sending the guy an email crying about a post being deleted (don't deny it). At the end of the day, I'm mostly just playfully calling you out on little hypocrisies and stupid s*** you do. You take it so badly to heart and lash out with these unreadable essays because you know I'm right. All this because I said it was ridiculous to try and sell us on the value of 6th round picks. Dont go on the internet if you can't handle some lighting ribbing.
  17. I don't know what to tell you. When I saw that I thought "wow this guy I've barely taken note of before sure is an uppity ****", and ever since then about once a week you say something that confirms it. But again it's nothing personal, if you look at every exchange I'm only ever responding to a particular insufferable post. The fewer there are, the less exchanges we seem to have, might be a formula in there somewhere.
  18. You know where it all started by the way. For someone who claims to love this place I don't think anyone has shown more disrespect to the person who makes it run, and we both know that's ongoing. In the end all I ever do is respond to the contents of your posts. You could just respond without getting so upset. Should really try to stick to the rules regarding personal attacks, we only have so many active GMs and don't need them flying off the handle and getting banned.
  19. Is this a copypasta? Havent seen it before
  20. If you don't get a better offer we'll give you a 5th next year for those three 6th rounders.
