Ok that's really cool. Next up actual holograms

 

[Habsy]

They should use the player numbers on the projection though, I mean what slackers.

 

[lecoqsportif]

Andlauer probably won’t be as cheap or incompetent, but it’s still an undesirable location.

I assume Tkatchuk is trying to force a trade.

 

[MindzEye]

No doubt that JT can be traded — I just think the frequently cited “real money” angle isn’t what makes the deal happen.

This is an extreme example of that though. 10 millie is 10 millie. That's a significant portion of the budget for almost any team in the league.

 

[MindzEye]

So pull a Monahan?

With retention perhaps.

Yeah, for the deadline seller, definitely. Retain 50% of the cap hit and half of the playoff teams in the league would probably check in on him.

Can’t see how the actual cash money owed isn’t a big part of the equation. That’s in large part why moving Marleau was so costly. He was something in the neighbourhood of $5-6M actual dollars that Carolina had to buy out for us.

Definitely one of those movies you can never watch enough times.

But wouldn't be just pull the I want to win here card?

But my rug man, it brought the room together

 

[leafman101]

I mean “we’ll trade you to the best team at the deadline” is probably a better bet than “win with the Leafs.”

 

[Habsy]

Trade Marner for a Brady Tkachuk

Rare asshole commodity that is useful

I love all the Coen brother's movies but that one has to be their best.

I like Oh Brother where art though too. I bust a gut at that crap.

My daughter watched the Big Lebowski for the first time this past weekend. I had the surround sound on, cinema view, popcorn, snacks, made her put her phone away....

This shits serious

Yeah, Oh Brother is up there for sure.

1. Fargo
2. No Country for Old Men
3. Raising Arizona
4. O Brother Where Art Thou?
5. Miller's Crossing

 

[CH1]

Fargo is my fave

 

[Slinger 48]

I always get a kick out of Tom Hanks in The Ladykillers.

Oh, Burn After Reading is another good one too.

Shit, they're all better than most anything else. About the only one I never really got into is Barton Fink.

1. Fargo
2. No Country for Old Men
3. Raising Arizona
4. O Brother Where Art Thou?
5. Miller's Crossing

Exactly correct Burn After Reading sixth
