I'm very clear on the meaning. You extrapolate your information from box scores. Did I stutter?

Yes, I use High Danger chances to look at a game. How dare I use useful stats. I'll start using box scores like you do.

So 1 game where I asked a question about a game that I wasn't listening to you now say I extrapolate all my information & comment? So I don't listen to the commentary of Mike Lange & Phil Bourque?

Read a while ago, people try & sound intelligent by parroting analytics - just something I read.

Pity you don't understand the difference between speed of the game & shot location!

Last part first...

The Pens made this very mistake last year thinking they could just fill those bottom six spots with whomever. The lost out on Cullen and went in with a rotating door of McKegg and Rowney. So yeah, let's do the same thing. Move the guy that helps the depth and take a gamble hoping they can replace him on the cheap.

Can the money be spent elsewhere? Yeah. Where? The money spent on Hagelin, Rust, Sheary, Kessel, Hornqvist, etc... they can get rid of one of those guys and spend it elsewhere.

OR, they can keep the guy that works and doesn't shrink the cap space. Nahhh, let's go with your idea.

So ignore my proposal of signing Derek Ryan who is a good bottom 6 C & a lot better than the players you mentioned, ignore the fact that yes JR said he is going to make some changes, ignore the fact that our D could use help & continue on with your narrative that my comment was dumb? I proposed a player that is playing 4C because brassard is a 3C & won't be dropped for Sheahan. You now counter with players that are important to the team (mostly), & could very well be trade bait - but who replaces those players? At what cost? You obviously didn't understand what i proposed & went & had a go at my intelligence. Maybe that comment about your low hockey iq is spot on!

Better suited players at a cheaper price is good Cap management FYI.

Of course. Too hard to defend what you said & reply intelligently so resort to the mature response. And you thought using a big word would show you have intelligence??
