As long as we get a good return, fine
Otherwise I’d keep him
Idk that we agree on what a “good return” would be though?

Also,
What u said above is super reasonable
It’s when u go off the deep end about him that i fire back at ya

- jdfitz77



How about the islanders 2 (1st) round picks 11 and 13 maybe?

For ror, after jt leaves

$7.5 million for the 25th best center in the league gets you nowhere near a championship.

Again. Sell high.

- buffalofan19


So then why wasn’t your initial argument Cap related?

He’s a good played
We got Buff-a-taxed to keep him

We aren’t Tampa or Pittsburgh
Players aren’t taking discounts to play here

Jack is gonna be getting more per year than Stamkos
The deals were only sign 1 year apart

It sucks...
but we are gonna have to overpay players for the most part

Maybe that changes once we get good?
But for now, that’s how it is

And? There was a world before you came into it believe it or not...

I know you know who AC/DC and Jimi Hendrix are, and Jimi died in 1970.

I’d like to not give up that much...

I’m sure I’ll forget about it when he becomes the next Hossa (and possibly a better scorer)

Because there is a consensus
Even in Sbroads own words,
“the analytics community loves O’Reilly”

His peers voted him “most underrated”

Everyone on here, even those who wanna trade ROR, say that he’s held in high regard across the league (by GMs & Coaches)

So u tell me...
how is that not a “consensus” sir?

- jdfitz77


I guess if you want to construct a strawman and call it a consensus, you can.

Jesus Christ...

Queen

And don't give me the "they were big before I was born!" which is bullpoop, they're still touring.

Do you know who the Rolling Stones are? Jimi Hendrix?

- Wetbandit1


Queen is still touring?
With who as the singer?
That seems like a bad idea without Freddie

Btw
I know it’s Allentown, but Queen is probably one of the top20 bands played on the jukebox where i work

Ghostbusters wasn't supposed to be a reboot either but that changed
- gerbe75pts

But Ghostbusters was, in fact, a reboot. Ocean's 8 is done. It is, in fact, not a reboot. That can't change now.

Would you trade ROR, Nylander, Bailey 32, and 1st rounder lottery protected for Laine ?
- Pegullaville


Yes, but it’s still “a lot”

And i never said i wouldn’t do the deal

Dude they're probably one of the top-20 bands played on all jukeboxes if only for Bohemian Rhapsody.

I’d be on the fence about that
I guess I’d take it if we were definitely trading him & that was the best offer

Who we getting at 11 & 13?
I think we are probably missing out on that tier of guys who come after 2-4/5

Also,
hard for me to say bc i haven’t spent much time on that part of the draft
All along I’ve been putting Dahlin into our lineup

They never really stopped.

In 2016, the group embarked across Europe and Asia on the Queen + Adam Lambert 2016 Summer Festival Tour. This included closing the Isle of Wight Festival in England on 12 June where they performed "Who Wants to Live Forever" as a tribute to the victims of the mass shooting at a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida earlier that day. On 12 September they performed at the Park Hayarkon in Tel-Aviv, Israel for the first time in front of 58,000 people. As part of the Queen + Adam Lambert Tour 2017-2018, the band toured North America in the summer of 2017, toured Europe in late 2017, before playing dates in Australia and New Zealand in February and March 2018.

Meh
It’ll probably be ok, but I’m not expecting it to be as good as the Clooney pics

- jdfitz77

I'm not expecting it to be as good as the Clooney ones, either. But that's because Steven Soderbergh isn't directing (he is still a producer at least).

We would probably have to take salary back and add more realistically.

Why would. Carolina consider trading him?

Although that #2 pick must feel like found money

- Boss34

I have no idea. But the VP of Hockey Ops said himself it could be had.

It’s not a strawman argument at all

O’Reilly’s peer view him in high regard
True or False?
*named most underrated

GMs & Coaches around the league hold him in high regard
True or False?
*pretty much all of us take that as true general knowledge
*wasn’t given a letter to wear for team Canada without being highly respected

The “Analytics Community” hold him in high regard
True or False?
*i say that based off of Sbroads own words, bc he’s way more into that stuff than me

So please, how is any of that not accurate?
