I don't recall threatening you, just hoping a fire randomly consumed a hateful bigot! Can I have your mother's phone number?

See you at the rodeo you bigot. Hope hockey fills that emptiness in your brain where eloquence and tolerance typically go.

For those worried about who would play where if we signed Stamkos...


If we did sign Stamkos & there wasn't the chemistry there with him & Eichel together (with whichever one of them on the wing)...

Pittsburgh is showing how u can have your best 3 forwards split up on 3 different lines & they all get their icetime

Crosby, Malkin & Kessel all on different lines, all got over 18min of icetime
And their 4th line all got over 10min of icetime each as well

so there's multiple ways to make it work
No need to worry about that aspect of signing Stamkos

So....

_____ -Eichel- Reinhart
_____ -STAMKOS- Ennis
Kane -O'Reilly- _____
Foligno-Larsson-Gionta


Hell yes I'm alright with that
Think of all the guys we have coming up that could potentially fill in those blanks

Fasching, Bailey, Baptiste, Rodrigues, Hurley, Cornel, Olofsson, Possler, Carrier, Catenacci, Karabacek, Malone, Estephan...

All those guys rated as "top9" or better talents
So we only need a couple of them to work out

And that's keeping Foligno & Larsson on the 4th line & not accounting for Girgensons anywhere

And what if we signed Vesey &/or Caggiula?


YEAH...
I'm REALLY liking what I see here quite a bit

I'm glad someone else backs this idea. The advantage of having elite players like Eichel/stamkos is that you don't have to pair them with every top winger in the lineup to get production. Look at how Pitt got Dupuis to be a top line forward.

Now think of Eichel, Stamkos and ROR on different lines and how difficult it would be for teams to defend. They can't play a shut down line against all three lines.

I am very distracted by this poster, can we please have them removed.

I'm sour because your last sentiment didn't hold true when it was buffalo's turn...

EDM won..that was an aberration..noone, including papa bettman thought it would happen again..and sure enough the Oilers got McDavid

and when the NHL finally wised up they saw the opportunity to revitalize a cash cow...letting Tronna draft Matthews so the Laughs could make the NHL a poop ton of money again

EDIT: is noone else suspicious of a draft lottery that takes place behind closed doors??!

so last year wasn't rigged, but this year was as the team with the highest odds won?

Could you Please enlighten us with Which years were rigged and which weren't?

(frank)! I can't believe we were visited by a Social Justice Warrior and I missed it. I so hope Jimmy McFascist comes back to lecture us with his holier than thou attitude.

Telling someone to die in a fire is still there but if you post a picture in EK's thread you would get banned...

Lots of tolerance in this thread....

Wow do you truly believe this? I'm literally dumber after visiting this thread.

Stamkos is not basing his decision off Matthews, if he wanted to sign with the best young player, he would sign in Edmonton. Matthews has zero to do with where he picks. Please visit less.
