Are you too cheap, not that good, or both? I'll surmise the later.

Too much money it takes away from the fun of being out there.

Byron Bader

Cale Makar... he is absolutely incredible. Reads plays. Amazing skater. Can rip it. Smart as hell. He is just awesome

Even Benning knew this kid would be good.

Looks as if Washington is going to be getting about 9m in cap space. Backstrom might be finished. Another player for the Miller sweep stakes

I always get a kick out of people who quote the founder of this site.

This guy is worse than Pronman and Robinson.

Btw im excited for your draft hot takes this year. I know you fancy Pickering and Bischel but im still waiting for the Zadina 2nd best player in the draft or Vilimaki top 5 D in his draft kind of stuff.

Don't make me wait till the last minute. 👍

Are we saying players traded from the Canucks who then came back and did damage against the Canucks, like in the playoffs?

Can’t really even think of one.

Gelinas?

Does Willie Mitchell count? I can't remember if Van played them or not after he went to LA.

Ron Stern might be another if we go back far enough.

Actually I have been tooting the horns of Jiricek, then Nemec, for over 2 years now, and have wanted Pickering or Bischel at 15, if available.
In the case of Jiricek, I stated 2 years ago, that this kid has the potential to be a true #1 defenseman and Nemec is a future top pairing guy.
All this was done by actually watching these kids play and following any reports I could get on them.
It wasn't from watching a 5 minute video clip put together by scooch.

Also, your boy Byron loves his 5'10 hockey players, even more so than that twit Robinson.

Byron is pretty meh to me. Just because I copy and paste some tweets out don't mean much of anything. Everybody knows Makar is solid.

Sounds like you put in a lot of effort. 👍

Scouch's clips are way too much of him talking. 😆 usually mute and fast forward a bunch.

Im not old enough to know who that guy is.

So the answer is no one?

I answered the question when I said once, because the only person I could think of was Doug Lidster, but hey wtf do I know, I only have hot takes that are on occasionally wrong.

What do you want for Garland, you can keep DiPietro.

Messier. He did the damage b4, during and after his magical time with the Canucks.

He was everything many in here crave. Just not for the Canucks.

Probably. Salary cap era is something else, isn’t it. Still, the Cup, even if it’s only one , is always worth the cost, IMO, no matter how many years of suckage bookend it.

Not looking good for Tampa Bay!!
