  1. I think him and Buble can be joint owners and with them being true fans at the helm, they might see it clearly the problems we have and address it.
  2. I still don't understand how people have this image of Jake. He never did any sort of that when he was playing for us. If you are talking about that McDavid hit at young prospects camp, it was quite clean.
  3. But it's not merely just making a bad decision. How on earth do you think your own family/parents will scam you that much. I mean if he asked his cousin/uncle to manage it, I will kind of understand. But your own parents..that's more towards the parents than him making a bad decision.
  4. Virtanen wept openly when the verdict was read in B.C. Supreme Court on Tuesday. Wow...maybe he really appreciates he got a second chance.
  5. This is unbelievable. As much as I hate Gaudreau, he deserves to be one of the finalist. For me, the 3 should be Huberdeau, Gaudreau and Shesterkin. With HM to Matthews and Mcdavid. Although Leafs fans may claim their record was worse without AM in the lineup, you can say that more about the aforementioned 3.
  6. https://oilonwhyte.com/2020/10/22/edmonton-oilers-dodge-bullet-jacob-markstrom/ haha
  7. You know stetcher has been a healthy scratch for a few games already
  8. You mean he will get it against Calgary? and then he will get his 603rd win by season's end.hahaha =) Let's hope!
  9. Yup..the Canucks can do like a reverse arbitration and 15% discount is the max they can do. BB6 reverse arbitration
  10. Sorry, I meant, at that time, he was not a bad pick. People make it seem like Benning went off the board to pick him
  11. But it wasn't like OJ was a bad pick. He was ranked higher than a lot of D that was picked after him. Yes, he wasn't the bpa but he was one of the best D available
  12. Which has been happening all season long and thus Halak's poor win/loss record.
  13. LOL, you should start watching games instead of looking at stats only if you think this is the first time he played like a bonafied NHL goalie.
  14. Did the OP even watch the other 8 games he played. Yes, he hasn't performed the best in the past couple of games (although most of the goals were tipped or turned over by our "amazing" defence), he has done quite well before that. The team never even gave him any run support. He is definitely not Demko but it is quite hard to find a Demko like backup who masks our deficiencies.
  15. Ok then, but as I said, a lot of people (might be you, might not be), who usually turns around and blames the GM for not getting at least something.
  16. But as I said, people rag on JB for not getting any TYPE of asset and for letting players WALK. I'm sure you are those fans that will blame PA for not doing anything if Motte walks in the offseason and we can't re-sign him. It is clear that Motte won't re-sign unless for a specified price and I'm sure PA/JR won't do that deal so instead of getting nothing, he at least got SOMETHING.
  17. And then when he doesn't get re-signed, everyone will be mad at how we didn't get anything.
  18. I don't know why people are so confused with this process. It happens every year and everyone makes the same assumptions. I think it was stated even back then with JB that it is to reward them for their hard work and spectacular play by giving them a better pay (for this period) and to train with the NHL squad so they can gain experience. All at the same time, being a substitute in the event someone goes down.
  19. Sorry, what I meant is although they were top D, OJ was ranked higher. In hindsight, they are better than OJ but at that time, JB wasn't completely going off the board with the OJ pick. For example, Sergachev was ranked between 8 - 14 (and Habs traded him too), McAvoy was ranked 12 - 23, while Chychrun was ranked 6-13. To be honest, if JB went to pick those three and they ended up being bad due to our development and OJ being a superstar, then people will complain why JB didn't pick the BPA defencemen =/
