Did your snarky reply to me giving my opinion of a trade make you feel better?

I think Durzi was a very under rated pick up. That kid is good.

It's a good trade. Fills a bottom six/PK need, decent speed, forechecks and got him for free.

Interesting analogy on torts, I like it. I agree with you about ROR. I don't think he lost his love for the game, I don't think he hated being in Buffalo, I think he hated some of his teammates.

Well said. Bravo!

Torts should be in the running for coach of the year, I don't think he gets enough credit.

6K was outstanding against the Preds and deserved a better fate, I hope they go back to him tonight.

Today is the first of a three game winning streak.

Well said. I agree, rough night for my boy, but he'll be fine.

Rough night for my boy 6K. Woof!! Save % down to .905(24th), GAA down to 2.88 22nd). 6K is now 6-3-1 in games started.

I think we're more in agreement than not, especially on not going past five years. Definitely wouldn't give him a NTC. I'd prefer to keep him if I was Adams, but I'd also be looking at what I could get for him in a trade.

The only thing I would add to this is I believe Mitts is 25, so locking hi up for five years takes him through his prime.

A big reason for Mitts improved play, in my opinion, is he's matured physically. He's able to maintain possession of the puck. Less turnovers and stronger on the boards. Depends on his ask and what we could get for him for me, but I don't think the kids could make up what he currently provides (more than just points) next year and maybe the year after.

I just reread this. I did not mean to imply you're unintelligent, I know you are. Apologies if it came across that way. I just find your seemingly unwavering stance (at least to me) a bit curious.

I have a brother in law who thinks once you have an opinion on something if you change your mind it makes you a hypocrite. He doesn't grasp that educated, intelligent people make opinions based on observations and available information, and with more observations and information opinions can change. He also has an eighth grade education, has never held a steady job and constantly asked my wife for money. That's who you remind me of when it comes to Mitts. You've never liked him and you never will, production be damned.

You're right, my bad, apologies.

The trade deadline is in season, still alot of hockey afterwards. Semantics, I guess, carry on. 🤪

My Wife and I play every Friday. We actually play with a member of the Predators staff and his wife once a month when possible, our wives met at a zumba class and became friends. That's how I knew the Preds were blowing up their roster before it happened.

Regarding 11-7, I'm personally not a fan of it. When Schenn came off LTIR Nashville started running 11-7, they just won their 6th straight game.

You looked at his game log and plucked the four that had the lowest save %. That's lazy and ignorant. He was good in Ottawa. Watch the games.

Moves, yes. I fully expect he moves an expiring asset or two, but I think the return will be picks, not players.

I agree with you about this year. I'm hesitant to attach the word "ever" to it though. I think he'll add the the team is ready to compete for the cup, and I think we're still a couple years away from that.

Greenway and Jost were added in season last year. The bolded is a bold lie. What are you doing? I don’t think he'll add anyone this year either, but what are you doing?

I do understand that. I don't think there's a right or wrong way to be a fan. I don't insist that people feel as I feel, say as I say, do as I do. As I said, to each their own.
