hi
- jochfr


I remember the first post you ever responded to me.

I berated 89 for his negative attitude and you told me "Lighten up Francis".

I said that you were on the list.

Good times.

Remember how many ppl were pissed we picked Risto instead of him?!
I'm being sincere
Not sure if u were one of them or not

I do remember. I was one that questioned it but never got pissed. Especially with the Grigorenko pick the year prior. I'm not a big prospect guy pre draft unless they played in college and I officiated one of their games.

Some ppl were legit p!ssed off though
I remember a lot of "we needed a forward" talk

I loved the Risto pick, & the Zadorov pick
It's cool we traded him to get O'Reilly...
But we've been searching for a partner for Risto since

We all wanna see GMTM make that move this offseason,
But we might have to wait until next offseason to take advantage of a team like the Ducks or Preds

I just didn't know you that well back then.

Understand you much more now.

Ok, thanks
There was an article on tsn.com I believe saying we were one of 5 or 6 finalists for him & that he was gonna visit each team, then make his decision.

That was last week though
Haven't heard anything since

If we miss on Stamkos, it would be nice to add him & Vesey to the mix


Here's that article I was talking about...

Thanks i'll check it out, if we miss on Stamkos he is the only player I would pay big bucks for. After him we should take our time in finding a scoring winger just to make sure we don't screw ourselves money wise later on.

Boedker, Ladd guys like that want 6 mill a year, let another team pay that. Same can be said for Shaw, he plays on the Hawks and is not worth 5 or more a year. Those are crap contracts

I totally agree
Saving our $$$ for next year is a much better idea than signing a 30+ year old to a long term deal now

Teams will have to make some interesting moves next summer with the expansion draft looming

And I don't think we need to rush things
This team is getting better
But making a wrong signing or 2 could set us back

Either Stamkos or no one as far as UFAs go

Stamkos is the only player i'm going all out and spending for as of now, unless we can grab a player off a strapped team.

Myself and an ape suggested for many years we should have signed Greiss when he was a free agent
