  1. agree. very principled. the Batman of GMs, I guess Im good with the strategy. The proof is in the pudding - as long as the results are trending the way we want, my only conclusion can be that his process is leading to significantly more good decisions than bad. Of course, the expectations change next season it'll be interesting to see what Adams feels he needs to do this summer to ensure our trend line continues in the way it needs to We got him? We got Matt Irwin Jordan Greenway?
  2. We didn’t make them retain salary cup push 2023 all-in confirmed
  3. Goes to what I was saying that there’s no harm in attempting to improve the goal differential of our forward group the OTHER way, too i like it He represents defence
  4. See, Adams has been trying. What’s the return?
  5. I think (thought? Have to check standings) they had the best odds of any one team fighting for 8th, but even the 30-35% number id wager would be too high if imputed into a statical model ”the field” looms large in situations like this
  6. I’m curious to hear your take if we don’t upgrade on D
  7. “Cui Bono?“ “Cui gives-a-sh*t, it’s got a freaking bow on it“
  8. See! The utter nuance!
  9. Me? You run a great website here SDS, there are plenty of posters here and plenty of better posters than me taking the time to dutifully outline their position on that front - there’s nuance here even if it can’t be found on twitter
  10. There’s a tone there that rubs me the wrong way a tad, too. A bit different from other quotes we’ve seen I get a “we know a little more than the fans, ok” vibe there don’t really need to come out and say that He’s basically echoing the “why panic?” sentiment made here sometimes when someone suggests even a small move the conflation of liking to see improvement with impatience is a poor one. And somewhat insulting considering what we’ve been through sorry donny
  11. Asked this question the other day in fun. Sounds like there are a lot of retired folks adding excellent content around here Personally, im not really old, I just work nights
  12. Right right that makes sense I was wondering why you were on tsn in the first place. I’m up north so Godspeed rebels ya ya I got that part
  13. Why Godspeed?
  14. What do you think, don’t you think practicing today makes Dahlin likely for Monday?
  15. Oh yes. UPL / Comrie would be the canary in the coal mine come on now
  16. There’s been a lot of smoke that KA has been attempting to be in the mix for a few of these deals. To me the take that that means he’s open to improvement is significantly more hopeful and positive than her other side of the coin I’ve seen being argued that KA just simply hasn’t been that interested and if he was he’d have assuredly gotten his guy If we believe the expectation is playoffs next season, I can’t personally come up with an argument for how we could, in good faith, enter into next season with UPL and Comrie
  17. True but my take is he’s likely back Monday based on this. I wonder if that’s mistaken? I had him as a big questionable for that so to me this upgrades it to probable
  18. Please keep musically posting please
  19. Good call Does Gu-wan-dus? apologies, this was turrible
  20. Ya, there will be work to do this summer. The, “if things go right, we’ll be in the mix for 7/8 into March, at least” mindset doesn’t really fly in a season where making the playoffs is truly the goal and expectation
  21. Bedard’s “like you said, the lottery was fake” was hilarious
