A must read for all 'fans' who love to wail/bit%%/complain/whine/whinge/etc. over every move: http://nhlnumbers.com/201...ral-small-mistakes-can-be

Essentially outlines how the leafs were sunk through many small moves and not necessarily a big mistake. Gives credit to every single I can't believe ___ was paid ___ more then they are worth. It is the end of the world argument.

Enjoy.

Where do we fall with the Schenn situation. Is it Schenn's camp thinking he is worth more, or the Flyers camp thinking he's worth less.

Obviously I'm biased against Schenn. I think he's not a core player and will wind up being a 3rd/4th liner on a team with more talent than the Flyers.

How many teams have a 26 goal, 59 point scorer on the 3rd or 4th line?

Just saw GoT Episode 10.

Wow. Best episode of the series. Ties up quite a few loose ends.

I've never been a huge Brayden Schenn fan, but my guess is Hextall has a price he is willing to pay at a certain term and won't go beyond it. That's just the nature of negotiations.

I think Hextall knows enough about Brayden Schenn at this point that I trust him with whatever he decides, whether it's a new contract or trading Schenn.

The problem with getting rid of Schenn, though, is you've got to figure out how to replace his output. That doesn't mean I want to see him get overpaid on a long contract, but it does mean that if you're going to move on from Schenn, you have to figure out what the next step is, on the ice.

Haven't seen past season 1. Wife got mad at me when I fell in love with that blonde dragon woman chick. When she showed boobies I almost got murdered.

Would have still been worth it.

I really think he's tried to move him but no one was willing to offer anything of value for him.

He's just not the type of player that teams are searching for these days.

He had the hype to be a core player, but hasn't become a core player - to me. He's a less talented Mike Richards with a taller body - but thinner. Minus the work ethic to outwork anyone on the ice. I speak of the Richards of old, not the new Richards. The new Richards is probably an identical match to the current Schenn.

If Richards got Schenn's ice time I'd wager he would put up the same numbers and have a larger impact. It's moot regardless, however.

Double adverb? That a sin?
