No Excuses No Limits! The mother fucking goddamn season thread

[Preston]

Have to admit I've been dreaming up dishing out a Minten and a 1st package for an impact player for awhile now.

Also must admit I hadn't ever considered that player to be Brandon Carlo.

When you can get a d-man ranked 125 in turnovers, you don’t think twice!!

 

[MindzEye]

Fuck it, the Americans can take over now, I'm done.

Nothing here is worth saving.

So... Are we saying there is no retention?

[WellPlayed]

Did we just pay Minten 1st Dewar for a minor upgrade on Connor Timmins?

Fold the franchise

So yeah he was actually a beast in the playoffs last year. Their #3 dman, in arguably the toughest usage, with the 2nd best xgf% behind only one of the bottom pair guys. Even chipped in more offense than all but one of the D. And was their #1 PK guy.

 

[trujaysfan]

Dewer and timmins are not very good.

 

[Volcanologist]

Might be our only hope now.

obviously Keith Pelley ain't it, we'll get another weak ass hot air filled presser next month I'm sure.

they didn't need to clear salary. they could have just waived them.

My eye test agrees. Haven’t watched him play this year but I doubt he’s cooked at 28.

I’m sure Tre aimed higher, however

Would be nice if he turned out to be McCabe 2.0. A good top-4 defenseman (and a RHD to boot) acquired with a couple of prime under-contract years left.

He's always been a beast as per my eyes. Guess it all depends on which version of Carlo they get. Seems to be a lot more variability in effectiveness from stay at home d. Much depends on systems, teammates, fit, etc. After all the Leafs once made Luke Schenn look amazing!

Florida only had to give up a 2nd for Marchand?

wtf? Everyone knows he is significantly better than Carlo and Laughton combined right? Right!?!?

 

[Preston]

So I guess no retention eh

i don't think he can be a mccabe.

but hopefully he's the guy that finally fits the defensive #4 dman slot that we've kept trying to fill with bottom pair guys every year.
