It's what you deem a good pick. Really isn't if they don't win you the cup now is it? The rest is settling.

I have no idea what you're talking about.

Matthews, Marner, and Nylander are great players regardless of whether we win the Cup.

If Washington didn't finally with the Cup once a few years ago, does that have any impact on Ovy?

A good pick is deemed a good pick because it turns out to be a good player. Nothing else goes into the analysis.
 
Rapey in the dictionary. Lol.

Fucking judgy people making up false equivalency words to then use the word they made up to support their argument.

Funny funny stuff.
 
You wouldn't be so sensitive about this if a Habs prospect wasn't so obviously rapey in his behaviour.

and I had nothing to do with the creation of this word, but it's useful so here we are.

Argue with Oxford

Oxford. Dude really?

This bullshit comes from contemporary vernacular with no fucking thought put into it then oh look it's in the dictionary!

If given the choice between only the two every woman without a rape fetish would take the picture bullshit and using the term rapey for lesser crimes actually diminishes the crime of rape and makes the word useless.

Humans are fucking idiots.

It was made to be useful

And yes I would. It's plain wrong to equate the two and that's precisely what you're doing.

If your goal is entertainment then flashy players that never give you the money shot is definitely the way to go. Goon away.

For a board that likes false equivalency rebuttals this one is pretty up there.

What he did was stupid, childish and punishable. It was not on the same level as rape and I challenge you to go into a rape support group and purport that it is.

Pretty tired of this attitude in humans. A kid fucks up and it gets hyperbolic.

Would be a different story if he seemed to be actually remorseful. As far as I can tell there has been none. Happy to reconsider if you cab demonstrate otherwise.

So because he's a tool he's raised to the actual level of rapist?

Naw no false equivalency there

Ovy has been pretty entertaining, and then he finally won.

Probably still early to write off undisputed 25-26 year old superstars who haven't managed to win a Cup yet.

Yeah, town in England. Decent university, they've got a dictionary named after them.

Language evolves. This would be way easier if you just admitted that I used an appropriate word that you weren't familiar with and moved on.

This is a silly as claiming that the word murder became useless when people started using it to describe things that aren't literal murder.

But it's ok to right off a kid after 70 games.

If past performance is indicative of future performance I'd say there's a lot more saying your guys fold in the playoffs.

What do you think Slaf’s production will look like next year, and in his prime?
