The assumption is that Panarin and Bob are signing as free agents in June, not be traded to Florida. Florida is then going to need to shed some payroll.

I recalled and resent it.

Can you double check. Taro thought he didn’t get his either but he found it.

Ok, other then two mailed tickets sent to Wyld and LTS, I need to know who got them. I think there was some glitch with Taro’s and Wild’s.

Jonathan Huberdeau, with a cap friendly deal ($5.9 cap hit for 4 more years) is reportedly available. He is the kind of guy I want! Panarin, Bob and Marketting hockey in a non-traditional market. Unfortunately, I don’t think JBOT has what it takes to pull this off.

116, 117, 118

I forwarded six tickets today. Wyld I need you to pm your physical address because yours is an old school ticket. The rest of you, please let me know when you receive them.

For the record, It was an early morning press conference, only people in 716 were employees, vendors, people meeting them and a few early arrivers. I still wouldn’t put it past them but it wasn’t the public display portrayed here.

Anyone that was in 716 during The Toronto press conference heard Cliff Benson scream turn that effin liar off so you know the Sabre’s think he mislead them,

It pains me to say this but Toronto has done what Terry Pegula promised. They have brought in smart people, found a place for them, spent huge amounts of money on coaches, scouting and front office. The Sabre’s have guys doing on the job training. Granted, Babcock screwed then by lying to them and using them and Lafontaine turned out to be a little nuts but their back up plan has failed miserably, The results show.

For those wondering, tickets are going out Wednesday night, Thursday at latest. Just waiting for a response or two. I’ll let everyone know who is getting hard tickets or electronic tickets so you know what to look for.

Wyld owes you $100, if you can handle it I plan on using ticket next to you

I’m glad someone bumped this. I have to disperse tickets. If everyone could just pm your e mail and physical address. Two of tickets are old fashioned hard copy so I’ll have to mail those.

Tampa also not afraid to trade first round picks and a lot of their cheap talent comes in form of undrafted free agents and lower picks.

But thank god we still have all those draft choices that should pay dividends in three years.

No

Yes

Look for a tweet from Meyers Musings.

Chicago is almost in a perfect spot to retool and like I said, give Buffalo three Cups and I’ll take a couple of down years.

If you need them in less then four years you over estimated Jack, Casey and ???. You also are assuming they trade the picks, and do nothing else for four years. At least a couple of the current prospects should be ready to either play or turn into future picks, one of the top nine should be sold at the right time to infuse new blood and picks into the equation. My proposal is fluid, you identify your core, move them a year early, recycle some picks, eventually you may end up where Chicago is but who wouldn’t take what they’ve done as our template?

I really don’t want to get into names but you just have to look at teams ready to do a tear down. There are at least three that I could name without any research and to be clear, I said available for two first rounders.

Wow, sorry, a little distracted. My point was, if you have my 9 forwards, plus the prospects currently in system, you don’t need four first round picks in the near future. FWIW, you make a valid argument but while you see me as over rating what they can get and how long they can keep it together, I think you tend to way over value picks and prospects.

You like everyone else is mud-reading this. My point is that you have none forward, all 26 or under, you don’t four first round picks the next couple of years.

Last point, you seem to assume the high end for your window(8) and take the low end(2) for my window. Without getting into a response of biblical proportions, I see the likely window for my proposal at 4/5 and that’s if they don’t add anything and the players on the third line never elevate to second or borderline first. I will take a 4/5 window that starts now versus an 8 year window that starts in 2 years.
