DarthEbriate Posted November 4, 2021 Report Share Posted November 4, 2021 (edited) That really shores up the right side of the defense, veteran leadership, grit... oh... oh right. Still, cap compliance is important. (Edit: Execute Order Seventy!) What does everyone think the eventual future consideration becomes?

SwampD Posted November 4, 2021 Report Share Posted November 4, 2021 (edited) I still cannot understand how anyone can say that we are not tanking. I mean, why spend money on actual players when you can pay someone who has already retired. Edited November 4, 2021 by SwampD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What money are you talking about and how does it preclude us from getting a center? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"You know, I like Sheevyn. I'm gonna give them that low 6th that JBott traded their high 6th for. I believe in karmic balance." A 6th in 2023 is my pipe dream.

And it's exactly what they did the last tank. The only difference is that they never use the word "Tank." Hmm, maybe that's all it takes for it not to be a tank? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabrefanday1 Posted November 4, 2021 Report Share Posted November 4, 2021 Now we have a retired d-man we are paying til the end of year and he makes good money...they clearly do not want to spend much right now so instead iof spending on Boychuk to get to the cap floor at least spend it on a center Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have tons of room for it and boychuk and his 1.25mil in actual money is not relevant to that. 15 minutes ago, SwampD said: Just because you believe it doesn't mean it's true.
