See, this is why you’re a joke. No, of course, those 2 moves don’t win the Hawks a SC. But those are among the 1st moves that need to be made, to begin the process of even making the playoffs again.

And BTW, the tactic you used there is called ‘reductio ad absurdum’, Latin for ‘reduction to absurdity’. It’s taking an argument to the extreme, to make the original argument seem absurd.

You’re not as smart as you think.

Scott,

No tactic, I take your words with literal meaning and draw the conclusions you infer.

I guess I am lucky my self esteem is not derived from the opinions of posters on a hockey blog...

And, another point for your edification, unless you’re getting a check as a member of the organization, It’s ‘they’ not ‘we’.

You do realize that the only adults that take everything literally are those on the autism spectrum, or with other cognitive disorders?

Understanding nuance is a sign of intelligence.

Pretty sure it's implied...

Someone scored! Saad or Kubalik.

Kirby Getzlaff!!!
- TrueGrit

We need him to become a better player than any Kirby be it Getzlaf or Rychel. And I bet he will score more

On the trade front just a fyi from myself to trade prognosticators: if Beaudin really was dealt to Montreal.....then beware one of those young.centers already has concussion history. The center who had the NHL hat trick last game of last season and sat out beginning of season with concussion. I believe he is playing again for their farm team

I value a future solid dmen in Beaudin over any of their young centers.. maybe more than Drouin too. Drouin also is out- is it concussion with him too?

Traverse City area's great. We were up there over the summer. How's things in FL? Bit warmer I imagine.
