  1. Not at all, haha. It was brought up as a hypothetical, but no one was suggesting we do it, or really advocating for it
  2. How many data points do you have on what the market offered, Professor?
  3. Who are you arguing with about Petey being captain? Or anyone fighting? It’s not okay to watch your teammates take a beating when you are a 210lb Captain. That’s the only point I’m making.
  4. Your definition of market value is the highest value anyone is willing to pay?
  5. There is a whole spectrum of reactions between nothing and a fight…face wash, shove, getting in their face, passive aggressive post it note on their dressing room stall…
  6. Yep, the ideal outcome for any of our ‘struggling players’ Should be able to make better informed decisions with the mid season coaching change. See who thrives under Tocchet, Foote and Gonchar, as well as who doesn’t. The sooner we calibrate on a team identity going forward, the better.
  7. The Canucks offered what he was worth to them, and were willing to trade him if he didn’t accept it. Saying they lowballed him seems more subjective than saying he chased the money.
  8. Holy Captain Horvat fish sticks, literally no one is suggesting it. @Devron you came in hot there like ED209
  9. Nobody wants that, lol. Totally taken out of context
  10. Oh for sure, @Elias Petterssonwas suggesting a scenario where we draft a top 3 2C and are ahead of schedule to being competitive again, with OEL on our 3rd pair.
  11. I get your point 100%. Hate dead cap, but there are times a buyout makes sense given the big picture. It would likely be a last resort, and we’d need a compelling reason to need the short term cap relief.
  12. Yep, there are some circumstances it would make sense, but those two years of $4M+ penalties will hurt
  13. Agreed. What’s the point in being a tank if you rarely throw your weight around? Petey plays more physically than him
  14. He had a very cushy spot on the PP. I don’t follow NYI well enough to predict what he’ll produce there, Hopefully enough to keep them in the bottom 13-15 this year.
  15. I like Bo as a player, and we’ll definitely miss him in the dot and on the PP. We can probably replace those contributions with two different players for the same total cap (eg Kuz on the PP, and a $3M 3C FO specialist). Also, anyone can replace Bo on the 32nd ranked PK, just like anyone can idly watch Garland take a gloved punch after the whistle.
