I don’t think he picked up on what I was putting down.

Some would suggest he is NOT READY

You seem like a guy who could have a minute to talk about a pretty cool guy I know. Some say he's the coolest guy of all time. Would you like to get a cup of coffee and discuss my pal Jesus?

Starbucks is great at branding. You know who is the OG #brand? My boy #jesus

You seem like a guy who would struggle to figure that out
- washedup20

So i was right
Figures

We don't have a 2C for next year, unless mitts goes to the Gary Roberts training camp if that's still a thing. Also, Hayes would have been 4th on this team in points this past year, so I wouldn't call him 3rd tier. If there are other solutions for next year, I'm open to it, but $6m to have a guy play 2C for you is not ridiculous atm
- jcragcrumple

But you’re focus is on NEXT year
I’m looking more at long term success,
than immediate band aids

Casey is training for a fortnite tournament

That's....

O’Reilly has played 300 more games than Nelson.

I think games played and wear and tear on your body is more important than age.

Only nhl games count towards wear & tear?

I think immediate success is the only metric by which to measure this team during year 3 of Botterill. Time to be good.

Of course not, but that’s where players accrue the most injuries at the highest level, no?

Probably overall
But idk that u can apply that to every individual

It’s not like the AHL isn’t physical

- jcragcrumple

Except immediate success is signing guys like Hayes to get us to the playoffs in the next year or 2

I’d rather build towards being a contender

These band aids ppl wanna sign aren’t gonna get us where we wanna be
Frankly,
These long term deals to these guys will actually hamper us from becoming a contender

And if we aren't good next year, and we start getting trade requests from Eichel, Dahlin and Reinhart because we're stuck in hell? No, time to assemble a playoff team

Yet O’Reilly would have been the player that maybe got us to the playoffs but wouldn’t be an impact player by the time we were a contender.

That's....

It’s sad but true .

Hopefully he gets that walk up call

So i was right

Conjecture

Also... can’t we get better without overpaying 3rd tier guys like Hayes???

Gotta build the team the right way

Damn well Then continue

- Pegullaville

I don’t think he’s already declining like you do

And we’d have a better chance becoming a contender with ROR than we would with a guy like Nelson, Hayes, etc
And DEFINITELY over Berglund... most likely Tage & the picks as well

How did you come to that conclusion?

Snarky remarks instead of denying it

It’s Thursday.
