If they trade Shenn to accommodate Vinny I won't be able to see to type.

I'm guessing it will be like this until the end of June then two to three weeks of postings followed by Tangent, Skip and I exchanging tired internet jokes and gifs.

Or we will all be praising Hexy for dumping Vinny on Nasvhille without retaining any salary.

Well, it'll probably be slow until the day the Flyers trade Baby Schenn to accommodate Vinny, where I will likely get banned from the Internet forever since my rage will not be contained

I've heard them pronounce it both ways on the broadcast. I think the Val Door guys are just blowing through the proper pronunciation.

You have no idea how much I hope they sit tight this year.

If they move Schenn next year because he failed to meet expectations of a No. 2 center, then fine. I'll understand. You can't wait forever. At some point, yeah, you need to see 55-65 points. Four seasons, including three full ones, you gotta look like you can do that.

But now? No. You don't know, either way. And you shouldn't be flipping that kid until you have a better idea than that.
