In all honesty, I wouldn't trade him for anything. Even hypothetical trades. I want him to be OUR guy and to be great and stay great here.

Kucherov and Hedman

did anyone score a pp goal in the sens/pens game?

lol Ottawa still can't sell out a game.

Nor did most of the fans that attended stay 'til the end.

The Bills 4 runs at an NFL championship in the early 90's is exactly how a Disney movie would play out in real life. Inspiring, against all odds, heartfelt, crippling, depressing disappointment.

Yes. The team that won.

You don't think it matters, do you?

Kucherov and Hedman
- homiedclown

Hard pass.

I personally don't care about goals, I just worry about the corsi

Kucherov and Hedman
- homiedclown

I was gonna say...

Kucherov & Hedman
for
Jack & Risto


I don't think Jack gets them both on his own

He could probably get...
Johansen + Ekholm, and maybe another piece
Or maybe Forsberg + Ekholm?

agreed

it was my 22nd birthday

we were 5th row between the uprights where the bills did most of their scoring

my guess is 25k there at the end

but damn we were loud

Hard pass.
- BeadyEyedDouche

Really?
May I ask why?

I'd trade Jack for Hedman & Kucherov in a heartbeat!

I was there
Had seasons tix with my mom & grandma
We sat 3 rows up in the end zone, right next to the tunnel

For something that's held so sacred by so many...
it sure is funny how often "luck" plays a role

I can't remember who first said it,
but I've heard something along these lines multiple times now

Whether it's a player, team, etc

"Luck" is created by:

having the confidence in your skill to be able to follow through on the situations that arise from being more prepared than, & outworking your opponent


I don't think it's "coincidence" that some players and/or teams are more "lucky" than others

Kucherov and Hedman
- homiedclown

No, this is a situation where NHL16 "value" doesn't work. Sure, Kucherov and Hedman both have the same "value" as Jack. But no way in hell do I do a trade for anyone other than McDavid.

Totally different.

This is the Conference Final. And it's only 16,000 seats or whatever. Not the ~72,000 that Rich stadium was in those days.

Really?
May I ask why?

I'd trade Jack for Hedman & Kucherov in a heartbeat!

Just, no, not in a million years.

Ok, but...

Kucherov makes up for Jack's scoring, does it really matter if it comes from the wing instead of center?
And we still have O'Reilly, move Sam back to center, Nylander has played center, Larsson & Girgensons are at least "ok" as bottom6 Centers
Pu is also a center I believe in Juniors
Asplund is almost "ready" as well

Plus, Hedman-Risto is a legit Stanley Cup top pair

I'm doing that trade in a heartbeat

This almost reminds me of that conversation my wife and I have where we discuss what we would do in the tragic event the other died.

I think the scenario my wife and I talk about is much more likely.

We tend to shrug it off because our combined corsi says that's probably not going to happen and don't discuss it due to the painful nature of contemplating our life without each other, essentially we waited 30 years for each other.

The Sabres fans suffered extremely to get Jack Eichel. When we did we were elated.

This period is like we're on our honeymoon and we just consummated the marriage, pure bliss.

Then you decide, "Hey, let's talk about our inevitable deaths and what we get out of the life insurance policies...."

Anyone else use the wgr app? It looks like the only show they updated since March is something about beer. Or is that just my phone? I wanna listen to botterill

This is dead-on. (No pun intended)

Plus, I think Tampa makes that trade without a second thought.

I tried to come up with a trade where we get 2 all stars back, on a long term deal with hedman and rfa rights for kuch

if jack is going to be a top 5 center, I think that is the type of return you should expect if you moved him, a trade that wows you
