looks like Montreal just parlayed Scandella into a 4th and 2nd to St Louis.

Now Botts looks dumb but St Louis needs a d-man

I don't see why - I am sure that when he decided to pull the trigger that was the best deal he had. If you're going to kill him for something then kill him for flipping the pick for Frolik.

This trade is a matter of circumstance. This is not on Botts but man it looks bad for sure.

might be worse then trading the 2018th first pick in round 6 for a later pick in the 2019 6th round

Yes.

It's unbearable and comedic, all in one.

100 GM's all rolled into one blog.

Ambriella is in 1st grade dude

Im not sure why but I thought G was a lot younger than Jack seemed more than 5 months. I cant believe how big A has gotten.

The big thing that I don't understand and would love to get clarification on is why won't Botts retain salary for a pending UFA?

89 has said Botts is against it

Makes no sense to not retain salary if you can improve your return.

Montreal is retaining 50% of the deal and got a 2nd rounder out of it.

It falls off after this season.

That is the only thing I want to know.

It's reminiscent of Steve-o dangling a t bone from his bare ass while traversing a tight rope upside down over the alligator pit.

You can't blame the alligators for taking a bite when the juicy bait is right there
