"Pegula remarked about how much rain had fallen"

Maybe Pegula dropping a hint about the check he just wrote Babcock?

I also question the Gringo link. If anything Roy might know more than anyone that this guy is at best a questionable prospect. I'd really have to give up Z but I know you have to give to get.

Z for that pos? (frank) that. Let's deplete our talent on D even farther for some dippoop (frank)tard at a position of strength.

(shrug) he reminds me of Drury. My issue is that I don't know if he is worth that money as I don't know that he is a top-line guy.

No'Reilly wouldn't know what to do with St. Drury's jock.

Nope!

There's like 30 other players I'd blow my load on over Dippy. Top RW/winger comes to mind.

Your hate for a guy that wants to make the most money possible is incredible.

And the best part about it is that it's him and only him.

I've explained my hate for him numerous times. But to sum it up, I don't think he's a good fit for this team at the price tag he will be traded for and the price tag he might, or (frank), might not be signed for afterwards. This team should be targetting a real scorer and not another Jason Pominville. He does fit the age bracket and if he was a free agent and could be had for 5.5. million, I'd say what the (frank) ever, but that's not the case at all. His contract makes him a garbage high risk acquisition. Ya know, the kid might actually be a decent guy. Good for him. Stay the (frank) out of Buffalo and don't ruin our prospect/defense system and our salary cap.

You've never asked for a raise or looked for better higher paying job in your life?

I don't personally blame him for wanting to rip teams off. Granted major league athletes function a little differently than us making another 2 bucks an hour. But that isn't why I don't want him here.

Let it go, he's one of Murray's targets.

2 bucks an hr is a $4160 pay increase which is an 8% raise on the US median income.


That would work out to ROR getting a 480k increase.


Which is right in line of what ROR will probably get on his next deal (6.5 cap hit).

Would you take him over Kessel? I'm still skeptical that there is anyone that we could get that would be better than ROR or Kessel. Kessel has a ton of flaws but the production can't be denied.

I'd rather not have to give up Zads and/or the other 1st but it is what it is.

24 year old centers that has regularly put up 55+ points are not cheap to obtain via a trade.

IMO Murray is trying to build a 4 line team with a move like this(if they do get him).

ROR over Kessel.

IMO Murray feels the same way.

I believe he said or it was reported he said earlier in the season he wished Eichel was Canadian.

Hey just pointing out how asking for 2 bucks an hr raise is more right in line to a pro athlete asking for more cash than 1st thought.

Yes I would take him over Kessel and his horrible contract

Looks to me like he's trying to build what the Ducks have, IMO.

The increase in pay is great. Not if I'm working at McDonald's flipping burgers for $57 an hour.
