The Mother-fucking goddamn Off-season Thread

[trujaysfan]

Is this actually a rumor?

I'm making it one.

 

[LeafGm]

We’re gonna sign sign all these fucking losers and trade Willy bc he won’t sign cheaper, aren’t we?

 

[axlsalinger]

1 or 2 of:

ROR
Duchene
Orlov

1 or 2 of:

Geekie
Steel
Sprong

And because it's inevitable, 1 of:

Reaves

 

[zeke]

Wait, you're saying a Reaves signing is actually fine now?

You were making fun of people who believed the rumour yesterday?

If you don't want them to sign any of the expensive UFAs then I don’t get the crying.

 

[leafman101]

Lots of ways to spend money on good players, not just free agency. Teams are giving away good players with reasonable 2 year deals.

I don’t think there is any shortage of good players available.

Signing Reaves is giving me Marc Bergevin flashbacks. He probably suggested it to Shanahan during their zoom call.

 

[MyNameIsJonas]

If you don't want them to sign any of the expensive UFAs then I don’t get the crying.

You are towing the line of being such a contrarian that you'd defend 3 years for Ryan Reeves

I knew you had balls, but how dare you in this sensitive state of the board?

 

[hockeylover]

If you don't want them to sign any of the expensive UFAs then I don’t get the crying.

I want them to target a couple 4-5 m dollar guys either through free agency or trade then fill out the rest with cheap value players.

I think that's what you want too. Reaves doesn't fit. Be upset about the signing you thought was ridiculous yesterday, flip flopper.

 

[CH1]

If nobody wants any of the top UFA then who cares if they pay Reaves 500k over league min.

Matthews probably cares

 

[zeke]

Well people are now taking to bitching about runours attaching us to very good players so yea maybe stop crying, bitches.

Wait what? Who are these very good players?

 

[MyNameIsJonas]

Ive literally only seen people complaining about ties to Reeves

 

[Preston]

For the record I'd be very happy if they signed Bertuzzi to a nice contract. I simply provided a case to not to too crazy because the contract won't be without risk. He's a one dimensional player. But if that's the big fish they're targeting then that's a good thing. Not crying over their interest.

But there are plenty of nice guys available, many that will go for way cheaper and potentially provide as much value. Use your analytics department and find value.

 

[hockeylover]

The main problem I have is that it's looking like our bottom 6 will have way too many black holes offensively.

 

[leafman101]

The main problem I have is signing Reaves for 3 years over a million is not something anyone remotely smart would do.

 

[Habsy]

1 or 2 of:

ROR
Duchene
Orlov

1 or 2 of:

Geekie
Steel
Sprong

Reaves

My money? Orlov And Sprong

Racist

 

[MyNameIsJonas]

Even if you can accept 500K over market for a 4th liner is, fine? It is completely reasonable to be upset that the front office appears to have looked at the bottom 6 and decided moar size less skill was the way to go. They appear poised to give a combined 7 years to two players with absolute zero offensive skill
