Youre a swell fella... maybe you B fans have been misunderstood for years (likely due to accents). That was a pleasant exchange. Habs nation thanks you for the points.

he (frank)ing told you huh?

Yeah...I'm going to go (frank) myself now.

Thanks bud! Glad I could help out. I try to pay it forward when I can. You know good karma and all that jazz.

why?

When you're not even listening to what Stuart or anyone else has to say, what's the point of arguing with you? Whether it's empirical evidence or a statistical analysis, you're going to say the same thing.

But hey, it's not like you're coming off as someone who is trying to play devil's advocate too hard for a universally panned move made by the GM of the team you root for, or anything.

Of course!

Hamilton did not want to be a Bruin. At 23 he is greedy. The D man the Bruins drafted will turn a lot of heads soon; maybe even this year. Give it 3 years and lets see what the draft picks turnout to be. Too early to grade that trade.

Well then.......I guess that's the end of the debate.

Don't apply logic. You're interrupting the candle light vigil and chick rock session in honor of Dougie's departure.

why is stuart someone that's needs to be listened to? all he hangs his arguments on are offensive stats that anyone can google. the kids a really good player with lots of upside, that right now is weak defensively. if you pay attention and actually watch him on a regular basis its not up for debate.

and should they have gotten more than the three picks? sure why not. i'm sure that a lot more went into it that than what is being (frank)ing blogged about by the lightning blogger on Hockeybuzz. not a huge feather in the cap resume wise in my opinion.

So the idea that the Bruins could have gotten more picks holds no merit?

If a defensive prospect with a grand total of 8 games NHL experience is worth equivalent value (1st & 2nd with the 2nd being 12 picks higher than your 2nd) I have to say yes.
