  1. i'm not laughing anymore. bennings done nothing but good moves in the last year. the hateis spreading and every time i think iget close to shaping thier narrow view,they double down and go full bananas
  2. heres your second chance to stop looking foolish, go ahead look. https://www.capfriendly.com/browse/active/2021/caphit/all/forwards?signing-status=ufa&stats-season=2021&display=heightcm&limits=age-27-46,caphit-1500000-5500000,toi-9-18,length-2-15,pointspergame-0.1-1
  3. ifwe were paying him on last year hed be making 5 if i was cherry picking I would have said pearson since the start of 2019 scored at 0.55ppg. so quit your lying also i took into factor his playoff numbers
  4. go paruse this and tell me hes overpaid, for every one contract you give me i'll give you 2 that shows he isn't. https://www.capfriendly.com/browse/active/2021/caphit/all/forwards?signing-status=ufa&stats-season=2021&display=heightcm&limits=age-27-46,caphit-1500000-5500000,toi-9-18,length-2-15,pointspergame-0.1-1
  5. i'm not perfect, but usually I don't make these mistakes. pearson in the last 3 years for over 200 games has averaged 0.46ppg over his career 0.46ppg. his last contract where he made 3.75 million he was averaging less than 0.46ppg this ties into your age argument, because technically he is playing his best years right now. players go through slumps, looks like pearson broke out of his with 4 points in his last 5 games. the cap will go up the year after next, and besides why would it matter even if it didn't. the cap is still 81.5m it did not go down, so why would the players salaries go down? I get last year why they went down, everyone was losing money and they would be cap broke. BUT the NHL is expanding, technically there is going to be a raise in the pool of 3%. its very possible the owners profit next year and every year after till the next disaster. https://cdn.nhlpa.com/img/assets/file/NHLPA_NHL_MOU.pdf https://www.statista.com/statistics/193468/total-league-revenue-of-the-nhl-since-2006/
  6. i did'nt insult your intelligence, i insulted the lack of effort you put into your obvious hate towards jim benning. you consistently made arguments that made him seem like he is incompetent. YET i rebuke your arguments and you just move the goalposts or creating strawmans. I gave you plenty of times to pull back and rethink your obvious distaste. BUT everytime you doubled down, failing over and over again. don't call me bud, amigo. i don't need a friend like you.
  7. ntc/nmc? nope! 4 years? nope! over 30? nope! overpaid? nope!, just not given a discount. this seems like the near perfect UFA signing. also flat cap argument is old and dated, the cap will be going up just fine the year after next and for the considerable future.
  8. hahhaha, this is your new argument? that teams that are playing for the cup are allowed to over pay. And teams that are not contenders, should get discounts? this is your mountain you choose to battle on? i'm loving this debate, you sure are curious. also why are any ufa signed? is it not because they are needed to get you through a jam? would maybe you consider thinking that young players might develop better when not getting thrusted into the NHL. seriously the whole thinking before you speak is a real "keeper" motto to go by. also i'm pretty sure I never argued that letting toffoli and tanev was smart. I may have with tanev, because he was having trouble getting the puck out with possession. But I did argue that toffoli, tanev and markstrom would be on this team if it weren't for covid. I also argued that after schmidt was brought in toffoli was still lower priority than a goalie. after he knew how much money he had to work with he was put in a position of having to trade virtanen plus+ another 1.7m to make room. or pearson himself, but why? wasn't our problem, getting the puck out and not scoring? we would have had to sacrifice defence for offence, and thats not something we needed. again give some real thought before you
  9. i nearly got shot once in a wellness check, well at least it felt that way. I didn't lock the front door, and somehow my door got opened, you cant see the door because of the hallway. anyways, the door was open for a while i guess so they called he cops. I was playing a video game upstairs in my room and i heard something down stairs. I walked downstairs and when i turned the corner there where two constables with thier guns drawned and pointing at me. They yelled Hands in the air, it was scary as hell.
  10. that was easy, even for me. that is a face you just don't forget.
  11. there not cherry picked, you made ridiculous claims and guess what? they just aren't true. stop making terrible arguments and i'll leave your posts alone. calm down, step back, and think. you don't like the contract? that's fine!!! but if your going to make jim out to be a villian and his predecessors angels? oh, yeah expect to get some negative responses. heck you could even say. i never liked LE, Sutter's, myers, roussels, beagles contract and i don't like this one either. because guess what, i respect your opinion. but the moment you make rapacious statements, thats where you cross the line. there is a big difference between most of the fans who support benning and the "haters" most of the supporters agree he is not without fault. but most of the haters think benning is living in their head rent free
  12. most do, nearly all of them. honestly, benning could have done a lot worse. and honestly I believe he has improved a ton from when he first started. I think this pearson contract is his some of his best work, if someone told me pearson would resign for 3.25 million at the begining of the year, i'd say shut the front door.
  13. does making the playoffs last year, and then play well enough to be in a playoff fight with 17 games remaining count as bottom dweller.? is st.louis a bottom dweller too? we beat them last playoffs and they have a very similar record to us this year.? again keep using descriptors that aren't true and you will be made to look silly. the team is not full up of bad contracts, does the team have contracts that look bloated? sure, all teams do. even your precious gillis.
  14. what if pearson goes marchand on us and pots 30 next year. some players get better with age.
  15. lol, luongo didn't owe the nucks a thing, they traded him. you see all the other teams kept thier mistakes on thier teams. and also canucks were not the only team that the league made a example with. i think the lightning got fined 20M in real dollars, florida got punished for the retention on lous salary. suter,parise,weber these contracts are poop and hurting these teams right now 7.5m for parise yikes. 10m for toews.
  16. also chris higgins 2.55M over 4 years equates to 3.17m to todays dollars he scored 15points in 45 games that year. the exact same ratio as pearson when he signed... really, please give your arguments some thought before typing a 1000 words on why west jet is superior to air canada
  17. burrows 4.5m contract is that a discount too? how about luongo's genius contract? you make a mockery of bettman and his cap, there will be a price to pay. one of the greatest things someone told me was "think, before you speak" I was 12 years old, and it stopped me in my tracks. your reality that benning is "selling low" and "over paying" pearson is just your opinion. your not fooling anyone, we know your not a expert on the matter
  18. funny thing is that wasn't the goalies fault, it was just a really bad bounce. edit. actually it was really bad.
  19. reporter: tanner you had a chance to score a hat-trick but you missed. you're bad, and how does that make you feel? way to ruin everything for this guy, god dang it where is LOU?
  20. 69420 repeatedley showing up? Can't Stop, Won't Stop. Game Stop!!! TO THE MOON!!!!
  21. how very correct you are, bravo! the entirety of the team efforts and overall success is based on nothing more than bad goal tending. our players did not deserve those goals, it would have been much better if we were shutout. of course, that is what we deserve. END THE THREAD!
  22. Travis really showed how much of a leader he can be. and how humble, gave all the credit to bo. he said play with heart play with energy, and we got a chance. he also hinted at that wern not even in final form.
