What is wrong with saying I don't think she's attractive?

That's great the guys like her she's just not my style

- GERBE!!!75PTS


You can say she's not attractive. That's fine. But the "she's pudgy" part was unnecessary. Some things are better left unsaid.

It's fine if that's how you feel, but the rest of it was unnecessary. Being honest isn't a bad thing, but you have to know when it's appropriate to be that honest and when it's just not needed.

more because your only factor in attractive is weight and presence of a penis

Shes not attractive to me I'm sure people here don't find demi lovato , Olivia Holt , Hailee Steinfeld ,Dove Cameron

So what's the big deal

no clue who murray would have taken though
- homiedclown



Idk about "no clue"
You can reasonably guess he'd have chose one of the highest ranked forwards left or one of the highest ranked defensemen left

I'd trade Lehner for Jacob Larsson (d- Anaheim) straight up
Idk much about Juulsen lately though

And for Konecny (f- philly), White (who Ottawa took) & Boesser are pretty good forward prospects too

Hell...
I'd trade Lehner for Samsonov (g- wash) too
He's is one of the better goalies not currently in the NHL


4/5 of the next guys picked look pretty good to me

I agree
There were good choices for us with that pick

The best argument I've heard is that we probably would've had to give that pick to Colorado for O'Reilly
That's reasonable to say they'd want it
But since pick 21 > pick 31,
U could also assume that we'd have given them a lesser prospect than Compher (who I like)

Of course this is all supposition, & not much we can do about it now
Hopefully Lehner does well this year
His game certainly needs work

Were a Tyrod injury and a mediocre D away from bottom 5

McCoy getting hurt would probably hurt us more than any other player
Some games, he's our whole offense

I just don't get why he did it he was a scout first GM I forgot what backup we had that year but I'm pretty sure he Would of put up the same stats

( That's when he did that trade with the blues right ?and that goaltender put up the same stats as Robin and he was pretty solid)


Looking at the Players we could have had makes my stomach hurt

So what you're saying Robin wasn't worth a first round pick

Oh my

- GERBE!!!75PTS


Jesus Christ.

That's not how it works. You don't draft goalies there because you don't know which ones will be any good. Once they are good it's fine to pay that for them. Andersen was a 1st and a 2nd and then immediately signed to a huge contract. 21 in '15 was an overpayment sure, but we needed a goalie, very badly, and when you need something badly teams know that and you pay a premium. Plus we got him cost controlled for 3 years, something no one factors into the cost, you should.

I was there 17ish years ago. It was pretty fun, some decent rollercoasters. Smelled like chocolate. Did the tour.

Well, I mean, it depends on what you're looking for I suppose. You probably want to make sure both are nice and clean when you get there.

I get why he did it
GMTM thought Lehner was a franchise goalie

He's not bad, but still needs a lot of work

Now we just have to hope he can keep getting better
This 1 year deal seems like a make or break situation to me

I doubt it. There's only one of those and he's a hell of a lot more expensive than 21 in a deep draft.

We weren't a Cap team though,
so his salary was of little consequence

If we were getting him NOW for 3yrs at 2.25m,
then u could add that to the value of the deal

By "franchise" I meant would be our starter for the next 10years-ish
