That was referring to me? Not mad at all don't know how anyone came to that conclusion? Was just trying to stop someone from saying I was comparing Tavares to Gretzky which I was not. Comparing the hype and juniors their draft years not them as players overall.

I like to fish. My kid and I go after lake trout with spoons, and large mouth bass with surface lures or minnows.

But Darcy is better than Murray. And Kane is better than Kane. And Myers doesn't try hard. Grigorenko is tall. Brie is not that tasty. Grass. Coffee. Naps.

I we can vote on the choice of Tavares and Nolan being deusched over, I would prefer to address Tavares.

Sounds great. Where would you like to start?

i find forks work better when sitting at the table of a restaurant as opposed to spoons from a boat

captain douche here..

a avatar or an avatar?

So what are we even talking about? Did I somehow switch who I was debating with without realizing it?
- Cptmjl

Yes you did, I read your post about comparing JT and Gretzky's Jr numbers and knew they were nowhere close to comparable. Not by a mile.

And there was no hype about Gretzky being drafted during his draft year.

Does the Peg make the playoffs? They are now a softer team with losing Bogo and Kane and replacing with Myers and Staff.. that was their strong suit.
- IndianaSabresFan

I'd say they do. Kane wasn't playing and when he was he was on the 3rd line so it's no big loss. They did lose some physicality with Bogosian though.

I outscored Gretzky in a hockey tournament once.

i agree i don't think Kane is a big loss for them.. i wonder how the different skill set between myers and bogosian plays out

I figured they'd be bad, just not this bad.

I know, and again I was with you (I think I laid out some talk this offseason as to why they would score more goals....). You just haven't earned my respect yet in your predictory ways.

I cannot believe you won't even give him an opportunity to predict what some talented players will do.

They lost a lot IMO.

This deal comes down to Armia, Lemieux, and the 1st and what they become. They meet expectations then it's a landslide in Winnipeg's favor. They don't then it's a win in Buffalo's favor. Right now it was a good hockey trade.

He broke his scoring titale as a 16 yrold in juniors. Proably bcs there was no draft. Go back and read my posts to understand what my ambition was bcs you completely misinterpreted the point I was making and this is getting beyond tiring.

Big drop off after 20th. This brings me comfort.

I called the exact Staal trade to Carolina, Yak was a bust, and Evander Kane would be a Sabre.

So you can take your respect and shove it.....

You might as well let it go, I'm going to guess he doesn't give a poop anymore.

That's only 3 trades. You need exactly 12 trades to earn respect. Or 20 years, whichever comes first.

Sorry.. 2 trades and a prediction.
