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.

Solid

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

I more or less meant his overall play, not so much his offense. However, one should expect more for the highest paid player on the team (this year).

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

Heard very similar to you. I think you will have more solid info as I get it from a friend who texts someone inside, so the telephone game is in full effect! I just enjoy hearing whatever I can and being entertained.

With multiple suitors on Kane, I would think we can fetch a 1st, even with his contract expiring. From what I am told, if we don't, we'll keep him. Still blows my mind Gaustad got a 1st in the past! And to relate, Shattenkirk was dealt for a first and then signed with NY. Hoping we can piggy back off of those.

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
- jcragcrumple

No he hasn’t it was Jack Eichel the great elite Kane half the year sure he would chip in a few shots here in there the only thing he did that was elite is the face-offs

And do you still think he’s better than Bergeron

I think Botterill overplayed his hand.

I think the return for Kane is going to be Conditional 2nd rd pick and prospect, also a Cap dump.

You're wrong. End of story.

I'm just waiting for the I told you so's. Those are the most exciting parts of trades.

- TheSabresTaco

I expect around 20 goals and 55-60 points. That's what he usually/should do imo

You're wrong. End of story.

Are we in the playoffs?

Nope 30th he sure made an impact on this team

Go back and read the points breakdown i posted on the last page. Your first paragraph is silly.

And re: Bergeron, i said i'd rather have ROR under contract than Bergeron because ROR is almost 6 year younger. Yeah, i stick by that. Bergeron is 32 and will hit a wall well before ROR. He's on plce for a career year at 32. You tell me: is that sustainable?

Bergeron is having a good year though, good for him. But like everything on hockeybuzz, Bergeron has more points right now, so he'll always be better at everything in every category

For the amount of money he gets he should be top 3 for Selke every year

by that theory

OEL
Erik KArlsson
Matt Duchene
Conor McDavid
Jack Eichel
Leon Driasaitl
Patrick Kane
Jonathan Toews
Duncan Keith

All terrible hockey players because their teams are not in the playoffs.

- Simple

Like you said, the back and fourth game. Deals change all the time and i'm sure what we are are hearing will change again also.

I think Nash is going to go before Kane, but Kane may bring more due to his age. Nash also has a NTC and Kane does not.

- ImThatGuy[/quote. The fact that you’re even bringing up those great players and comparing it to a Ryan O’Reilly ends the discussion

Just like two months ago I said Z would be a top 2 pick you went on to say I was wrong
- GERBE!!!75PTS

Hasn’t been picked there yet and not like it was a stretch going from #4-5 to 2. Happens all the time.

You also said that the Browns will take Allen #1. We will see when that happens(or doesn’t)

If my grandma had wheels, she'd be a bicycle.

Things could be different, but they're not.

He's a good player making a good salary.

Happy lent day !!!!!!!

I'm not, I'm using your theory. you are the one that said it not me, maybe you should actually think before you type and not back yourself into corners.

Ok I can understand that response but can you finally say he’s a HOF player now ?

So 2000 years ago a jewish prophet walked around and made an impression on some people. Then he died and 3 generations later, some people made up some stories to make him sound cooler. Now we eat deep-fried fish on friday as a symbol of our love to this man.

I think

Ok I can understand that response but can you finally say he’s a HOF player now ?
- GERBE!!!75PTS

Yeah, he'll be HOF.

My whole thing on that is that his offensive statistics were never THAT great. this year helps that argument and maybe he can put together 2 or 3 more good seasons

I'm not, I'm using your theory. you are the one that said it not me, maybe you should actually think before you type and not back yourself into corners.
- ImThatGuy

But that’s just idiotic to say you know why those players are having a bad year .. but yet again ROR gets a pass

I just want your honest opinion are you happy with ROR or did you expect more

Yeah, he'll be HOF.

I was sour on him i the very beginning, but he is literllay being run dry by this team.
He is on pace for 65 points, on this team playing with Benoit Pouliot, Girgensons, and other crap wingers.

When this team is finally good, and gets some actual talent on the D and Wing, ROR will be a damn good 2nd line center at a great contract.

Anyways with the deadline coming up I’m hoping we are actually adding “Max Domi”

He hits the number one thing that we need speed and he fits the right age group but I also think this could be a Danny Briere story
