Nope...

I didn’t come at you tonight
You came at me


I was just joking,
but are u really drunk right now?
I know a great coffee shop that’s open right now

No, but if he's slow because he's lazy then just putting in the effort will make him "faster".

I honestly don't know what to do with him. He makes a lot of money, but not prohibitively expensive at the moment, has a poopty structure to his contract with all but $1M in bonuses, it's got many years left, the only (slight)positive is that we'll already have paid him $28.5M in the first 3 years, leaving $24M over the final 4, so it should make it a little easier to move after say next year.

If they can get away with holding say $2M I might go for that, but that means no buying anyone else out because with his $2M and Hodgson's ~$792K that's ~$2.8M on the books in dead cap for a team we hope can be competitive in 2 years.

I think he's pretty much untradable at this point and I like the guy.

All fair points.
I dont think its effort. I think hes just not a great skater to begin with. He is pretty shifty in traffic and makes some nice bang bang plays but hes not rushing up the ice creating chances.
I dont dislike him but if we can package him for a good young dman now i think its worth a thought. I dont think he will be missed 3 years from now.

He’s only 27 though
U guys are acting like he’s 35
- jdfitz77

I'll assume you know this already, but NHL players peak around 25. The idea that he's already in decline isn't crazy, it's common. The concern that his drop off could be dramatic (given his minutes played, injuries, and average speed) isn't far fetched either.

I’m usually pretty good about grammar,
but the damn auto correct gets me

I’m on my phone,
so i often have to go back & fix stuff

Thats all relating to your drunk comments. When you are adding extra letters and apostrophes to words in response to someone who you are proclaiming to be drunk it is noteworthy. That whole post you just quoted was bang on in relation to the comment it was about, and there were no spelling errors from this drunk dude.

We will be better next year with him though..... Maybe 8th worst again.

Yeah, it's funny, Fitz. You're

Oh well...
i guess it’s just not my night

Crap...
i just noticed that my “i” doesn’t automatically capitalize

I hope my 3rd grade teacher doesn’t see any of this!

😂😂😂😂😂

Neither do I. I think his back is (frank)ed. His skating form changes from game to game. This is also why I think he disappears for stretches.

I just hope it's an attitude problem, because that, in theory, is fixable.

You are worried about what your teacher next year will think?

I heard many stories


only thing I can't figure out, did he give, receive, or both?

Yeah, i get it hank
You’re still just being a d!ck though
So I’m just gonna try to crack jokes to lighten the situation

Idk why you’re so fired up?

Take a chill pill man

- Wetbandit1

Also fair, but if it is an attitude problem i would think thats almost a worse problem to have.

Ok, that's pretty funny.
- Wetbandit1

this is what I expect from NYers


pissing contests

back and forth


jab here
jab there



watch these will all be deleted and bans handed out

U can just overlook my posts ya know

I mean, if it really bothers u that much...

And he said he’d be ok with Zemgus or E Rod at 2C for a year...
so yeah, I’d say that’s akin to “tanking” again
- jdfitz77

If you're just trolling everyone, good job, you win.

I've never said tank next year. This team is in transition from Murray's core to whatever JB wants to build. They aren't contending next year, so looking further out only makes sense. If RoR isn't part of that, then move him while you can. I don't care if that creates a hole next year. There's ways to fill it.

I’m on the iPhone

Not sure what’s up
My phone jus had an update last night
So it might be that

Whatever though
Just one more thing Hank can correct me on

I’m lucky to have him in my hockey message board life
Idk what i’d do without him

someone should tell RoR not to worry

It's not his fault Lehner couldn't stop a puck 5 feet wide of the net and allowed it to fumble into his net
