Question- would U rather

playoffs and a first round exit

Or a lottery finish and get dahlin

Not trying to set u up. Just curious.
I know where I stand and it’s not close.

Both.

Most of their losses have come against the East. I still think if they play the west, they're going to have an easy time.

This is a awfully complicated question to be asking an individual who never mastered shoelaces.

Depends on the injury situation... If injuries continue to plague the team all year long, and Nurse breaks a few players legs, arms, etc, I'd go with the Dahlin option. If we're a lottery team with our lineup healthy for most of the year, I think a lottery finish would say a lot about the team, and there is deeper issues. So really it depends on what happens throughout the rest of the season.

Then again, if we did manage to turn this ship around and make the playoffs in spite of suffering more injuries in the upcoming months, that would also say something about the team. Considering the turnaround we'd have to make in order to make the playoffs though, I'd pick the playoffs with a first round exit over Dahlin to be honest.

Anyway... Harrison told me that the people at his father's lab have been purposely making McDavid sick all year (being McDavid, he is able to overcome this and is still awesome). He also said there are plans for Nurse to injure several top players after Christmas.

In addition to the injuries inflicted by Nurse, the labbies have also given several players syphilis, including Tablot, Klefbom, and Draisaitl.

It would be convoluted but I can see a way.

Somehow the 16th team is a west team and they get DQ'ed from the season so Edmonton somehow is the next best west team and they manage to win the lottery since they didn't finish in the playoffs.

Very simple. C'mon.

I don’t think we can afford to lose leon going forward. Too young, too good, to integral to our offence going forward

Klefbom, Yamamoto, 1st

Stole this from Henderson tbh. But yeah, it’s deec for a few reasons

We could throw in nuge maybe, but theyd have to add a deec lesser forward coming back

Karlsson for Draisaitl, Russell, and a 5th rounder now.

Karlsson feeding McDavid guarantees that McDavid gets 300 points per season. Plus, adding Karlsson gets us closer to the all Swede defensive dream. We can't give away our 1st, as that's Dahlin. I'm including Draisaitl mostly because of the value he has as a player (it will be attractive to Ottawa), as well as what he costs (gotta have money going back to Ottawa). I'd also be willing to add in Joey Moss if need be.

But if they ain’t gonna pay their franchise defender 10ish, they prob don’t wanna pay a less proven forward 8.5

My sources are saying that Karlsson wants out, and that it was always his dream to play with Lord Larsson. Draisaitl would be the main piece going back, and then Ottawa will deal him for a couple cheaper players, as nobody gives a sh1t about hockey in Ottawa anyway. The GM doesn't even give a (frank) anymore... Right now, it's all about rewarding Karlsson for the time he put in in Ottawa... The only way that will be accomplished is if he get's to call Lord Larsson his teammate.

I think the bigger crime should be wearing a Montreal Canadien's hat

Holy Fuk I’m hungover

Dude, there’s such a massive difference in the brutality of hangovers from your 20s to your 30. I ain’t even 31 yet and man, I can hardly function today. I used to be able to shake off days of drinking on end with no issue.
It’s all Just so awful now

You (frank)ing wussy. That didn't happen to me until I was 34.
