The Mother-fucking goddamn Off-season Thread

He basically drafted that entire team (except Benn, Seguin, Pavelski, Marchment and Sutter).

which is great. It means he wouldn’t have traded Sandin, or all those 1sts. And probably won’t trade the big 4 and Knies. And would give the kids a shot.

possibly too patient though.

 

[leafman101]

most of his big trades/signings were also on skill too. Seguin, Pavelski, Sutter, Spezza.

He really did a great job.

 

[leafman101]

Also it wasn’t just 2017. He also drafted Nichushkin, Hintz, Johnston, Lindell, Delendrea, Harley etc. they have Stankoven coming who is probably one of the top prospects in the league.

and a lot of his misses were big swings on skill like Gurianov and Honka.

Don’t sell me too hard on this guy, if we get Treliving now I’ll have to start whatever the opposite of the Zen brigade is.

I believe that's called being Kermit

the people are catching on.

The Nezlivings.

I don't get why it took so long. He was always a more realistic and better option than Armstrong. After the job he did I don't quite get him signing a 1 year deal either. And our boy wanted 5 years 6 million per.

I like that for once rumors are tying us to people under contract on other teams, rather than the other way around. Would be great if this one is true.

 

[JackBurton]

Well, Burke technically was. Didn't work out well.

LMAAAAOOOOOOOOO

 

[Preston]

Good mother fucking riddance. Fuck the fuck off

 

[leafman101]

LMAAAAOOOOOOOOO

Fucking Shanny.

 

[leafman101]

The more I think about it, the more I realize the Shanaplan is really the NIllaplan. And the Dubaplan fucked it up with a bunch of low skill hacks and trading skill and draft picks.

 

[zeke]

All the shitting on the big contracts and we waste $8.3m on Kerfoot and Murray.

 

[hockeylover]

Oh weird that the evil puppet master didn’t dictate that to him.

 

[Preston]

Mirtle: Dubas saw things in Kerfoot that a conventional hockey man wouldn't. My column:

 

[hockeylover]

if kerf is included in that trade did we still need to move engvall?

 

[trujaysfan]

What else does the article say?

 

[leafman101]

If it was that or double retention, i think it would have created an extra $1.8 mill in cap space, so ZAR would have been enough if anyone. if it was that AND double retention, no and we have eve more cap space.
