Not about getting worked, it's about critical thinking. Sadly something that's not taught much anymore, especially when I was in high school.

Whether we're talking hockey or politics we tend to circle the wagons around our opinions and defend at all costs.

Trying to take emotions out and just look at facts is the tough part.

Wish they had a debate team in my high school, that would actually be one of the best things to participate in.

That's along the point I was making. the "older generation" still has some of these skills. The newer generations tend to argue with their emotions and feelings. That's kind of why people are setting things on fire all over the place. they cant handle hearing things that they don't like.

The leafs prospect pool is extremely shallow.

I would trade any of our wing prospects besides nylander forJeremy Bracco

This is interesting...

Eichel vs Laine

Who do you pick ?

Eichel due to being a center, they're both star players probably pretty even

If William nylander is available it would probably cost our 2017 first round pick +

That's a tough pill to swallow

He has all the makings of our generation's next gerbe or conacher.

Darren Dreger said Shattenkirk wants 7m a year lol have fun with the Rangers bro

We have 22.5 million tied up in Bogo, Franson, Georges, Moulson, and Ennis... Shattenkirk's 7 million looks like a steal compared to this waste of cap space.

That is correct.

However, the birth post modernism hasn't helped.

If there is any silver lining, it's that a lot of this money will be freed up soon. And, hopefully we can convince Vegas to take Bogo or Moulson.

Never trade a franchise center for a winger. Eichel all day.

These plans with businesses happened long before Trump was elected. I didn't vote for Obama, I was a Romney supporter but many of these plans were discussed and the VP's put the studies together that went up to the CEO's when Trump was a TV reality star so for him to get credit after a couple bumbling weeks on the job is preposterous.
