No Excuses No Limits! The mother fucking goddamn season thread

We’ll see what happens today, but Tree has been openly trying to get a center all year and lots of good centers have been traded and he couldn’t get any of them.

The one that gets me though is that Petterssen and Walman were traded and he wasn’t in on that.

They couldn’t match that Walman trade. But pettersen ya should have been in on that.
 
I mean at the very least they should spend mid round picks to upgrade on Holmberg in the top 9 and Benoit.

What the hell is a 3rd round pick in 2026 going to do for this team.
 
I mean if that's the cost then sure. But if they have to trade their best assets for a player that won't improve the team, then pass. And I think there are a lot of players out there in that bucket.

These prices are pretty fucked. I just ask that they aim high. Overpay if you must, but don't do it for a 4th liner that won't actually make them much better and would be high risk to be overplayed by berube.

The question becomes, is said add actually replacing Holmberg though, or will Berube go all plug.

I'd worry anyone they get for the bottom 6 pushes out Robertson.

The Shanahan era has set a precident of what he thinks they need at the deadline and it has never been skill.
 
I can't understand the trade values between leagues...

NHL: you want an okay player on a bad contract? Sure multiple highend assets is a starting point.

NFL: you want this pro bowl player? Sure a 5th round pick sounds fair

If we can get through today without acquiring Laughton, either of the Schenns or any old, rental or bottom-6/bottom-pairing caliber talent, I’ll honestly take that as a win.

Don’t even care if we end up standing pat as a result.

I think a plug-ish defender is more reasonable than a forward, because Marco Ferraro for exaple is an upgrade on Benoit, the cost might suck, but its an upgrade. Im not convinced a Tanev/Kunin/Laughton is even that big an upgrade if at all on what comes out of the lineup

What about one of these for multiple picks?

You know it's coming.

One league has talent scarcity (your late 1st round pick has a 50% chance of becoming a 3rd line centre in three years)
