And they probably should. But they'd be idiots to trade them for less than what they are worth. Just like the Flames would be idiots for trading Kiprusoff for less than he's worth. Starting to get it yet?
- Unholy_Goalie

That's not very respectful UG

different from a team under performing and getting in 8th, and a team over achieving or playing at their capabilities and just getting 8th

Shush, you.

I'm giving the gears to Uggie.

No one said anything about a long term approach.

Posters were arguing over who would they rather have with all the variables included (talent, contract, team in which they play on etc)

Kipper looks more appealing than Lu.

For one I tihnk Kipper is better, that's my opinion.
And for 2 Lu is paid until the year 2022.
- Lee Denault

I'd still take Lu, even on a hypothetical, if it were for just one season.

You have one dry sense of humor you know that?

- IRON.MAIDEN

That's a totally different argument in itself.

But i'd still take kipper.

And at the end of the day, I'd take either of them for nothing, but I'm not willing to give up young talent to get them.
- Atomic Wedgie

Yes!!!!

We are one 5'10", trash-talking Estonian away from being as good as LA.

You practically said it yourself.

- Unholy_Goalie

No, I am not.

So trading away Kessel, who is how old? 24? is a good idea?

That is funny.

But hold on!!

Let's trade 2 players who were in the top 5 scoring race until one got hurt.

That makes total sense.

I need my old avatar back.

I like you better with this one

If a picture is worth a thousand words, I just gave him three thousand reasons why the Kings are where they are.

Cinderella stories happen frequently. But they have never won.

The only team to win the Cup without placing in the top four in their Conference or top eight in the league, depends on how you look at it, are the New Jersey Devils. And they're at it again with arguably the greatest goalie of all-time in net.

Kind of hard to build a case for "8th place". Especially in the East. The West is where the Cinderella teams usually come from.

I like you better with this one

Let's talk in 2 weeks. I'm sure you'll be able to build that case then.

You really don't know much about hockey history, do you?

Ever heard of Jake Gardiner?

Wrong again.

How about you list all the Cup winning teams who won it from 8th and compare them to the teams that won it from 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th etc.

Good luck.

What a disgrace to hockey movies.

Ever heard of Jake Gardiner?
- prock

Justin Schultz is going to be better than Gardiner.

Gardiner is going to be as good as Doughty.

Therefore, Schultz is better than Doughty.

Boom!

What a disgrace to hockey movies.

What you don't like Julie 'The Cat' Gafney coming in cold to save a triple deke glove side slap shot from the blueline on a penalty shot?
