Are you sure? Apparently his corsi says he is worse than a #7 defenseman.

I don't know. Apparently I don't know anything since I make lame jokes about stupid (frank)ing trade ideas and I'm a fan of the ashes of a team left in Chiarelli's mismanaging, poor drafting, candy coated contract signing wake.

Wait you're talking about Weber?

He's going to improve the powerplay for the Habs, I think that's a given.

Oh and having Kirk Muller back to handle the unit will help as well.
- Scabeh

Muller is coming out of retirement to play defense for the Habs? Well he was solid defensively in 1993 for them. Does Muller have a good corsi? Sorry I couldn't resist.

You guys are gonna be in on him. Not us.

Oh

Last year, Shea Weber had his:

Lowest minute totals in 6 years, lowest shot rate since 2008, fewest PIMS ever, fewest EV strength goals since 2008, Most PP goals ever, fewest takeaways since 2009 and fewest giveaways sine 2009.

His hits and blocked shot rates stayed about the same.

So he played less, shot the puck less, acquired the puck less, HAD the puck less, but blocked shots and hit people at about the same rate.

What does that tell you?
- BINGO!

So he scored just as much while shooting less? Increasing accuracy!, hits people at the same rate while playing less? Even more effective!

Less time with the puck? He's passing it to the forwards even faster! Awesome!

He scored less 5 on 5 but scored more powerplay than ever? Who cares?!?

Less takeaways? People are so scared of him he doesn't get the chance to steal the puck!

See? He's great. You're great. (frank) off I won't change my mind until the season begins.

I like it when you want to hit me.

Yep and now he doesn't have a Josi on the other side of the blue line.
- Feds91Stammer

Markov has made a career setting up people on the point, it'll be fine.

And It will be interesting to see Josi without Weber as well....

I see. But my burning question to you is this...do YOU have a higher Corsi than Shea Weber does? If yes then Marc Bergevin will offer you a contract. If no then you will never win the Stanley Cup.

Thanks for your unbiased opinion.

Hey where did you get that cool pic of the Nylander brothers?

Enjoy the draft lottery.

I seriously doubt they are anywhere near the draft lottery with that roster if Price is healthy

That roster is hot garbage outside of a few players.

So yesterday we saw 2 intelligent teams make a trade, might as well see 2 incompetent teams make a trade.

I wish I had a comeback but that's all I got.

It's ok I hate my team too.

The Red Wings?

Turris is the comparable trade to me
- Tumbleweed

To whom? Yakupov? It's not impossible, Yak should use Turris as an inspiration to change his game, he might still be able to, but right now he sits as a 3rd liner, not a first liner.

The Red Wings?
- gergeswillems

They have 3-4 good ones. The rest is trash.

- PtotheY

That's the point...

Yak is worth a third round pick. He has little value based on his results and please don't make excuses Edmonton fans that he was used "improperly" He doesn't have a high value. Busts normally do.
