Not sharing the same opinions as you does not make them automatically retarded, but quite to the contrary more likely makes them pretty effing intelligent.

Opinions are one thing....everyone is allowed to have one....but where most people make their error much like you is when they form said opinion without all of the available information thus making egregious errors....

If you're just looking for a raunchy comedy, this is the end is awesome. Not a big rogen guy myself, but that movie was great

I guess their stuff is just getting old. Seen it all in the last 5-6 movies from that group.

Some of the originals were far funnier and way way better.

Always thought Brassard n Gagner were pretty interchangeable players, Brassard slightly better. Weird how well his 5M contract has been received compared to Gagner's 4.8 last year

I'm seeing lots of people questioning the contract.

I like it, 5 years 5m is a good contract to go with, banking on taking the next steps finally being a 2nd line C. But if he doesn't, they can easily move that contract with the Cap keeping on going up, or it can be on par or steal if hes just a 50 point 2nd line C.

Low Risk in my mind

Oil Change spewed propaganda. It didn't show uncensored, or moments of intensity, or a true feeling of a live documentary. It was way over produced and shaped to sell hope. It was pathetic in those regards and I didn't fully enjoy it. No comparison to the work by HBO. Those guys did it right.

I think perception has adjusted in the last 4 months.

Is Brassard 5 mil when guys like Tavares make 5.5? No. But Tavares signed in a different market, a few years ago.

Is Brassard 5mil when Toews is 10.5? Yeah, probably around there especially considering how desperate teams are for anyone who can masquerade as a competent centre.

He's also coming off a pretty strong playoff run and has historically been a better adjusted possession player.

That Tavares contract is an absolute steal for the islanders. Garth nailed that one.

Pretty well any contract from 2011-2013 for a young player that still has any term left on it is a steal.

Yeah but this isn't any player this is an elite player we are talking about.

Hall, Seguin, Benn, Tavares, Bergeron, Kopitar, Doughty, Keith, Seabrook, Duchene, Landeskog, Karlsson, Couture, etc.

All huge (frank)ing steals relative to the market readjusting.

Doughty and Karlsson are among the highest paid defenders in the league they are not steals. Hall is making quite a bit more then Tavares. He's is the lowest paid on that list he's is the biggest steal is what I'm getting at.

Duchene and Landeskog are on fairly short deals I thought?
Kopitar is making almost 7 million and only signed for 2 more years not really a steal.

Edit: Landeskog deal is a freaken sweet deal as well.

It's the guys just a bit older that have the real ugly deals...maybe not ugly, but I wouldn't pay eric Staal, Mike Richards, Jordan Staal or Rick Nash their salaries if I were to sign them as free agents right now.

Love how people hated the Bergeron contract because he isn't a perennial top 10 scorer

- Iggysbff

I don't form opinions, I state facts based on the information available. Opinions are for lazy people who can't be bothered to take the time to base a viewpoint on facts and evidence. Kind of hard to say one movie is better than another and base it on facts. It is purely opinionated.

It took people a long long time to appreciate Bergeron...but then winning a Championship does so much to elevate a guys status.

What about people who have opinions of movies or players that they have never seen?

- Jeropotato

Players are in a different category than movies, which would fall under the category of an art form. Not everyone appreciates or likes a famous painting, yet someone may pay millions of dollars for it. If a person has never seen a particular movie, or player play for example, then they have no basis to even form an opinion. So like the majority of people who troll here, they are just talking out of their collective a$$es

Does that mean he is no longer a bust, and they were right to pick Taylor over Tyler?
