  1. I don't think the value is there. I have zero interest in Kempe and Toffoli hasn't exactly set the world on fire the last two years. I like Toffoli, just not a big fan of that deal in particular. We're 1 piece too heavy, I think.
  2. Sign me up. At the very least, he's a Sheary-level player, and we need more of those.
  3. I'll happily take Boyle for cheap to bolster our center depth, but he is not the droid we're looking for. That'd be a Bob Corkum level addition.
  4. Yup, the Stars' style of play is so much more impressive than ours that they have fewer points than we do.
  5. Okposo is just bad at this point, man. Even you, the defender of old vets, will have to accept it soon ? And that should be a goal. Terrible call. Only if it was for the Cup.
  6. Not this year. He's been terrible and is a big part of the reason the Jackets aren't very good.
  7. I'll back off when you consistently use your homonyms correctly and not a moment sooner.
  8. I still think Tage sucks, but I won't complain about a 2 goal lead.
  9. Certainly no studs, but I'm definitely interested in adding two more 3/4 types to hedge against Foster just being a flash in the pan and the fact that Zay Jones is still kinda bad.
  10. Pretty much. Not to mention his own administration said there could be 0% growth this quarter if the government remained closed.
  11. Sure, I just didn't think it would be so sudden. I figured he'd dig in for another week or so and there would be leaks indicating he was going to cave to test the waters of his base. Well, that's what a competent administration would have done, anyway. I think the bigger thing is he legitimately doesn't know how to negotiate without leverage. This is the first time since he took office that he didn't hold all the cards, and he just behaved as though he did. It's not going to get any easier for him, though I suspect he won't change his approach at all.
  12. https://sports.yahoo.com/10-year-old-kid-won-science-fair-proving-tom-brady-cheater-184439991.html?utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=yahoosports&utm_content=socialflow&utm_medium=social
  13. Hell hath no fury like an insecure Bona fan ? Is anyone clearly worthy currently being held out because they were jerks to the media?
  14. Right? Pretty incredible that a guy on his way out was allowed to sign that deal. Speaks to problems in Edmonton larger than Chiarelli.
  15. If it was only players/GMs doing it I think you'd certainly have fewer off-field issues keeping players out, but I think you'd have even more "good for a long time but never great" players getting in.
  16. So...trading "soft" skill you "can't win with" for "grit you need to win"...didn't work? Shocking, that.
  17. "Scouts are scouting" has to be my least favorite nonsense about approaching the trade deadline. I think I'd rather read Eklund.
  18. For the "Auston Matthews is so much better than Eichel it's not even close woe is us" crowd: Matthews has 1 goal in his last 13 games, 9 points in those 13 (which paces for 57 over 82), and 0 points in 3 straight. Oh, and Toronto is a whopping 6-7 over that span. The moral isn't that Matthews is overrated or that he can't help his team win, it's that streakiness happens.
  19. The Rams definitely have a shot. I just have zero confidence in Goff against Belichick.
