I would have done

Dion (25% retained)
for
Moulson.

All well.

- ImThatGuy


You want a crusty old decaying Dion polluting our blueline for 3 more years at the same price as Moulson for 1 more year?

"His pairing with Cody Ceci has been one of the league’s worst by many measures for going on two seasons."

Sounds (frank)ing awesome. Cause we don't have enough poopty defenders.

I'd take him for 90% retained. If it were possible. Which it's not. And doesn't make sense for the Sens anyways.

I'm pretty much thrilled to be on the other side of the fence of anything you say. I don't know if thrilled is a strong enough word for the point I'm trying to make here.

I usually decide not to comment on most of your posts, in observation of the "skip over" rule.

This post is rock solid.

And while I don't know if "thrilled" is the word I would use when I'm on the other side of the fence from Gerbe, I know that I find it to be "self-affirming"

Don't be hard on him, he's our best and most accurate scout.

Hunter Shinkaruk disagrees, and I don't have time to pay attention to an entire universe of prospects and teenage hockey boys - I don't have enough time to pay attention to the all guys that are already in the franchise.

No it’s exactly what’s happening where was this player for the whole year I would like to know and I would like to know where Sam Reinhart was to




It’s like some of these players realize it’s almost golf season and they want to get their stock up enough so they won’t get moved

While I did mention we were talking to Philly a few days ago, it is just that; talking. And I was told it included a goalie but was not based on that. Unfortunately after asking for more info, I was told, 'it's just talks at this point, can't say much more.'
Latest I heard there are 8 different teams interested in Kane.
You're welcome for the pointless, obvious, and basic news. Sorry wish I had more

When the teams consists of scrubs for the most part... that is expected. They will likely lose more than they win in this tournament.

O'Reilly has been pretty consistently good all year. He's had a bump in points recently, yes. Your original comment that "he sucks all year" is hyperbole to the max

He started very badly, there's no denying it. But keeping up some poopty narrative about him being garbage until Jack went out is sad.

Thanks for the update. The next 2 weeks mean a lot to me as it shows what Botts is all about. I do think he understands as a team at the bottom, if there are players in the last year of their deals and you don't plan on resigning, you need to get future assets for them. Hope he gets us back on track!

5-6 teams in on Kane, 2 are solid but the offers are weak.

12 pts in his first 15 games

7 in his next 15

11 in the next 15

13 in his last 11

Pretty consistent. Q2 was a little bad, Q4 is very good
