I love that, apparently, Eklund had been the first to break every single deal.

I'm citing examples to back up the theory of what an incompetent fool Lamoriello is.

what he did 30 years ago has no bearing on what he does now

just because a GM made good moves before doesnt mean other moves they make arent bad

Who is the big slow guy on the Flyers? Couturier? Hayes?

That is pure nonsense.

Ron Hextall was able to get rid of 2 albatrosses in Vinny Lecavalier and Chris Pronger without taking bad contracts back. Therefore, Ron Hextall never made a bad move as a GM.

If it happens, I don't get the Parise move at all. Wonder what is going back, salary retention, etc.
- MJL

I heard Ladd, and while they contract is bad, Parise’s is an albatross.

JVR-style albatross or Kevin Hayes-level albatross?

Or worst of all, Voracek-type albatross?

I don’t think he’s a fool. Lou is a lot of things, but he’s not a fool. I do think he’s desperate right now, and it’s showing. You have a picture of Homer calling him a clown next to your name. What Lou has done today is EXACTLY what Homer did and here you are praising it! Hypocrisy at its finest.

What buffalo is doing makes absolutely zero sense hahaha

The rodrigues pickup is pretty good for Pitt. In sheary, JR fulfilled his innate need to trade for a player he traded away

Rodrigues is a forward. Sheary is okay. No different than the Grant trade so not sure why you think this one is better?

Also they traded away Kahun who I think is better than both of them
