Not sure you have been following along here, but I have stated several times that there isn't 1 player on this team that I would keep.
Tear it down completely.

He deflects like air hockey. I can almost hear the plastic clacking away.

You also tried to flip it on Ruby by projecting what he thinks is a fair contract for these players. He never even implied it let alone said it and you more or less deflected what you said onto him.


You always sucked at squirming out of statements made.

You can twist it any way you want it, Mikhayev’s contract is currently neither an issue nor an overpayment…end of story.

Lefty is drunk on wine, ready for bed, embarrassing.
- VanHockeyGuy

Buh bye Phillies.

Why the hell do think I care about what Horvat’s worth? I want a rebuild. He’s worth nothing to me contract wise, he’s worth everything to me regarding trade value though.
- Pacificgem

Because you've stated what he lacks as a player to get paid the money you think he's going to make on his contract that's why. You are blending a whole other conversation into it to squirm your way out.

my mouth is still healing from taking a puck in the yap, although all the stitches are out now. Just had new dental implants installed on Wednesday, front teeth. On penicillin so I haven’t drank alcohol in awhile.

How is not letting you twist out of comments you've made twisting it?

No, that was Reuby who started to talk about Bo when I made a comment about Mikhayev’s contract. I never brought it up

Kuzemenko isn't worth his contract because he is too old for a rebuild.

Looks like Dusty Baker and his toothpick’s are gonna finally win World Series.

Why the f*ck do any of us need to know this?

Clearly a narcissistic personality disorder.

To dispel your drinking myth

- Pacificgem

We are referencing your past comments why Bo wasn't worth 7m when you argued that Mikheyev was worth his contract... moments before you flipped and argued that he wasn't worth his contract. You can't keep up with your own twists. It's easy for Ruby and I to keep up because we are making no statements in spite of you trying to project them.

Will the team need to attach a pick, to get rid of his contract, so they can get on with this rebuild?

- Pacificgem

I was wondering when you'd realize that.

Kuzemenko isn't worth his contract because he is too old for a rebuild.
- boonerbuck

Plus, most of his goals are scored on the PP.

You need guys like him when rebuilding, you can’t get rid of everyone, you’re still required to ice a team. You can’t just sit out until you’re ready.

Missing the point completely, but that doesn’t surprise me. Guys like you can only see what’s in front of them, the bigger picture eludes you. Horvat could be, and is, a very good player, you need his skills on a WINNING TEAM. It isn’t about one player, it’s about collecting a group of players and different skill-sets that mesh well together.

Horvat is an extremely valuable asset that needs to be utilized to grow a better future. The organization doesn’t have many, so use him wisely!!

Well said.

Building a roster is more than singling out a player for strengths or weaknesses. The back end is always the challenge. Few teams can claim to be set there. Mobility & passing is todays game. That goes for the top 9 as well. Goal scorers disappear without it.

His ELC is one thing, but can the team afford him next season? Think he’s coming back for a team friendly $1.2m?

You don't even know what the discussion was really about.

Bo Horvat is not worth 7 million dollars

Neither do you.

- Pacificgem

So, a rebuilding team should be signing 3rd liners to 4 year, 5 million dollar contracts, leaving 0 capspace for potential cap dumps and assets?

There it is, Dusty Baker is a World Series Champion.
