This is serious Gerbe absolutism.

Take away the labels for a second. Let's say you trade ror for a winger +. You now have a veteran center hole to fill.

CM may have the offense, but he's not an experienced 200' player in this league. Someone needs to come in to do the PK, take the defensive minutes, win the defensive faceoffs, so on and so forth. You don't need an OR in return, but you need I would say a 30 year old Legwand.

“Monika Caryk has uttered numerous statements wishing my unborn child dead,” says Melinda Karlsson’s sworn statement to the court.

“She also uttered that she wished I was dead and that someone should ‘take out’ my husband’s legs to ‘end his career.’

“Monika Caryk has posted over 1,000 negative and derogatory statements about me as a professional.”

Reached on Tuesday afternoon, Hoffman said, “There’s nothing really for me to say, at this time. That’s all I can say.”

In March, Sens captain Erik Karlsson blasted an anonymous online troll who, in the comments section of a post mourning his dead son, accused his wife of “popping painkiller medication” during her pregnancy.

Even Matthews was started at 3C by the Leafs...

Sheltering Casey a bit should be done whether or not ROR is still here

- jdfitz77


I know you like to point that out, but from game 1, he was getting top line ice time. The Sabres pretended Eichel was a 2C to start, but everyone knew the truth. With Matthews, it was an even bigger facade.

I agree with you on the defensive side, for sure. I'd go so far as to say they need a strong defensive 4th line as well.

That paragraph took more twists and turns than an M. Night Shyamalan movie.

Bravo.

Also, I have seen some of Selena Gomez's videos, so she's basically my girlfriend

- jcragcrumple


I was wondering why Scott Gomez was brought up in the middle of it, red herring maybe...

Everyone wants to burn Toronto. And you wouldn't have to worry about making enemies because it's not like you ever trade with TO.

But the GM club is an old boys club and probably always will be until there are more rule changes or stipulations to offer sheet. I've been pining on reporters and bloggers to finally ask a GM why there aren't offer sheets. I want to hear it come out of their own mouths.

- TheSabresTaco


That doesn't mean everyone from both front offices will never leave though.

They're pussies. Sign your players before they can be offer-sheeted and you've nothing to worry about.

That deal makes no sense. We'd have 5 LHD. If they want to talk Faulk (they don't) then that's different
- jcragcrumple


Yeah, but he'd instantly be our 2nd best one*.


*Assuming Dahlin doesn't get attacked by a Chupacabra in his time in Dallas for the draft.

As soon as we get a new shiny toy...everyone else is awful and they need to be traded.

As far as Risto..I swear half the people on here don't even watch the games. Stats can only tell you so much. You have to watch how he plays..watch how he is always on the ice in the pooptiest of situations trying to cover for the 4 half-wits that accompany him.

And now that we FINALLY get him another quality defenseman to play with....everybody wants to trade him

- feetontheair22



Agreed. Trading him is stupid. We haven't had a decent defense in 10-15 years. We'll finally have a defense that looks like, Dahlin, Risto, Guhle, Scandlla, which will be one of the top defenses in the league, and everyone wants to blow it up. It's like people are so use to losing they're afraid of finally being able to win.

Having Mitts as your 2nd line center after 6 games in the NHL is moronic. Look forward to another bottom 3 season in the NHL next year.
- GilPerreault11


thank you.

we just need to trade everybody now, next year they will be worth zero, zippo

Just bc someone is getting lots of icetime,
doesn’t mean they aren’t being “sheltered”

And that’s what the whole point is

Sure, Matthews & Eichel got plenty of icetime
A lot of it was from the PP
And a lot of it was Off Zone starts
And a lot of it was against weaker competition when possible

So it wasn’t this big facade u claim it to be
