I figure 942 is a safe time. If it goes to a shootout......

Yea, none of us did. That's the point. You keep claiming people are saying things they didn't

There is a lot of backtracking today. May I remind you Fedun, Falk = or better than George but let's not go there. I am piercingly accurate, take notes.

No offense to you, but this just became a thing when people realized how underwhelming Kane was last year.

This was never a thing before that

- sbroads24


I'm not really sure what you're saying. I know it wasn't a big thing until last year. What I'm saying is Murray saw Arizona was in free fall, yes they had a bunch of points on us, but he saw they were doing their damndest to not get anymore the rest of the season and they only got 9, 2 of which were against us, he needed to do something, he really likes Kane, he saw the opportunity to subtract Stafford and put a Varone in his place, because Kane was out for the year, he saw the opportunity to subtract Myers and put Bogo in his place, and I think everyone here would agree that Myers is better than Bogo, Bogo getting hurt right away was just a bonus. Myers and Stafford instead of those guys is likely enough to get a few extra goals and allow a few less which probably changes the final standings.

Unfortunately, can't be a trade. Roster freeze.

You do realize that the pathetic Drew Stafford outscored Kane last year, right? And Stafford was the worst part of that deal
- sbroads24

Stafford's stats last year shouldn't factor into the trade, he was a pending UFA when traded, and we were not bringing him back.

I'm saying this has been a silly justification for a bad trade. And I highly doubt Murray only did it with Eichel in mind.

He wanted Kane for a long time

Lackluster O Canada, but she nailed the Star Spangled Banner. See Florida? That's how you do it, not whatever the (frank) that was the other night.

Yeah, we know he's liked Kane for a long time. He just saw a way to kill 2 birds with one stone.

Maybe wanting to keep Falk in game shape; reward him for solid play in practice.
