What if they are the ones playing spoiler against us?!
This GIF needs to be used more.

Here it is homies:

Our first Leafs game is...March 5th? WTF?
There are 15 back-to-backs.
Makes no sense. All the Leafs games condensed into 4 weeks.
It will break my heart if we are doing nothing but attempting to play "spoiler" for them again, at this point.

I don't get it
He said there's people advocating for trading ROR, when that hasn't really been the case, so I tried to make a joke wherein your adjusted post (my edits) was what he might see when reading it. #JokefailbyThorny
-
I'm becoming increasingly convinced that Chiarelli is kinda bad at his job, but it won't matter because McDavid is good enough to compensate.
Glaringly evident.
-
With Antipov, Beaulieu and Liljegren we are going to give Rob Ray an aneurysm next year trying to pronounce our defense. :w00t:
The love child of Nik Antropov and Vik Antipin?
-
Use the word "people", I one person advocating for ROR to be traded.
In the summer, in a "post your defensemen trade proposals here" thread.
Adjusted post for what will actually be inferred.
-
ROR is a team Canada, Selke-level centre. I think we probably should.....NOT trade him.
-
I kinda like that hat. Not as much as my current Sabres cap, so I'm not buying one, but I like it.
I too prefer my current hat, flat-brim.
-
Lol
My point being wingers aren't as valuable as defenders but centers are. Johansson for Jones comes to mind.
And that's my point. Defenders right now seem to equal Centers. We can't group all forwards together.
Which makes pigeonholing Reinhart as a wing even more baffling.
-
Johansen for Jones. I don't think we see more of these deals because there are rarely teams with excess centers and excess defensemen to trade.
Good one, forgot this deal.
-
What established center has been traded for an established defender?
O'Reilly for Zadorov? ;)
-
No worries
Per Corey Pronman the Devils maybe leaning towards picking Cale Makar First Overall
Serious question: After the draft concludes, which selected player has the highest value league wide?
It's gotta be Makar, right? Take him first overall, it's a good play.
-
Good wingers don't = good defenders.
Centers certainly equal defenders
But that's not really bearing itself out in the current market.
-
It's poor value for Edmonton, but such is life with Chiarelli as GM.
Also, they were never going to get Hamonic for Eberle. Good forwards don't have near as much value as good defencemen, currently. Being shown time and time again.
You want a good Dman? Draft him.
You want a good forward? Draft a Dman.
-
Smart teamA horrifying proposition
Not high on Tippett either? Or was that sarcasm haha.
I want a defender at 8, but if a guy like Glass falls, sign me up.
-
if you think about it he protected Lowry or Perreault, not Enstrom or Dano.
Or Copp.
It's not a horrible deal by any means, but I'd have preferred they stayed at 13 for a shot at Valimaki who I am high on.
-
Per Brendan Klak it's Eberle for Ryan Strome
Haha. Eberle is better.
-
Hall gone, Yakopov, Eberle...wow. That about clears out the stench of failure there, eh?It's like an annual rite of early summer: EDM trades a highly-pedigreed forward for a good d-man.
They probably keep Nuge, right?
Must be nice to win the lottery a million times...
-
I think Tippett is going to be our pick, for whatever reason. Just a guess from what I've read. I've advocated for not drafting him, so I'll have to come around on him, I suppose.
-
We are a better team today, because of expansion, than we would have been today, without. That's a solid win for me.
-
It's expansion. Everyone loses something. If you are lucky, it's a complimentary depth player. That's what we lost. Meh.
Expansion is also what facilitated the acquiring of Beaulieu.
I know I'd much rather have Beaulieu than Carrier, a 3rd, and 6th.
-
Yes. Except ROR's jersey. The dude sweats, what can I say?
:lol:
-
Are the pit stains definitely gone on the new jerseys?
-
The Jets moved back 11 spots in the 1st, and gave up a third, to protect Enstrom. That's a poor decision.

They always play in Winnipeg on a back to back. Damn you, Winnipeg.
