In his defense, he had to trade Myers to get Kane & Zadorov to get O’Reilly
The problem was that every defenseman he brought in sucked
The McNabb thing especially didn’t make sense to me bc it left us with no NHL ready depth to bring up when Bogo got hurt, etc
And then,
he pretty much ignored defense in his drafts, at least early on
I wanna say he had something like 17 picks in the 1st & 2nd round- and only used 1 of them on a defenseman
That always blew my mind

Thank god we won the lotto this year
Otherwise we’d still be trying to recover from how bad GMTM Fd up the defense

Let's not offer defense to a guy who not only sank this team to the bottom with Jack Eichel, but also had no (frank)ing clue how to fix his own mess 3 years into it.

So based on the additions and the Pythagorean theory, I came out at 100% total. Standard Deviation shows a -100% chance that Gerbe is correct, which is again a double negative.

-100 + 100 = 0%

Thee is a 0% chance Gerber is correct, which is basically 100%.
- ImThatGuy

Actually the zero becomes a 1 % and you have to add the two 50% so that comes out to 3%

So I technically have a 3% chance of being correct

After next week is a going to be dry here and that's when most of us take vacations
- gerbe75pts

You don't work. Your whole life is a vacation. School doesn't count, because you have like 4 weeks between fall/spring semesters and then like 3 months between spring/fall semester.

I get 4 weeks and 2 days of vacation time a year. And I've had to bust my ass to even get that. Only had 2 weeks total for a whole year for what felt like an eternity.

Jack Eichel has been dominant in his NHL career so far. Can't believe a team could be bad with a guy who scores 60 points a year. Stop it.

Revisionist history. He was so good for the Kings they didn't protect him. Just because McNabb developed for Vegas, doesn't mean he'd work out for Buffalo. I did like McNabb, sucks it didn't work out here.
- Hatboro_Swords

He wasn’t really given a chance once GMTM took over

I hated that trade right away, and so did others
So it’s not revisionist history
We traded an NHL ready defenseman for a power forward prospect who we knew wouldn’t be ready for a couple years
And like i said,
the Kings were pretty much playing him right away
and they didn’t leave him unprotected bc he sucked
They had to protect Doughty, Muzzin & Martinez
I’m sure they’d have loved for Vegas to choose someone else

So based on the additions and the Pythagorean theory, I came out at 100% total. Standard Deviation shows a -100% chance that Gerbe is correct, which is again a double negative.

-100 + 100 = 0%

Thee is a 0% chance Gerber is correct, which is basically 100%.

Precisely. It's simple derivative calculus.

Well, looks JBotts is warming up with that monster of a trade yesterday.
Wonder if he is focused on moving Tennyson...for a warm bag of ice next.

Seriously, if he is on Max Pac , I do wonder who he is offering up.

I can’t believe Beady still defends him

The best we can say at this point is that he messed us up so much that it got us Dahlin
Lol

Those were the days....

You don't have to yell at me I'm just enjoying my time before I have to be in prison like you guys

I don't want to look back on my life and say hey I should have done that but now I can't

Once you have a career and kids those are the number one things in your life and I can't focus on surfing or doing stunts or rock climbing because that's endangering my life and leaving my future kid without a father

There was 0 yelling in there. It was a simple statement. If you can't handle that and this is how you react, you're never gonna make it in the real world kid.

Nah.

Players union would have a huge issue with it.

People don't realize (not directing at you, just the casual fan) how much input the players agent, and union have on contracts.

It's in there best interest to squeeze the most $ and term out of any deal they can
- sbroads24

I get it, much like the Stamkos thing and how he was pressured not to take less than max term and money.

but how much would it take for a guy to tell his agent to F off.

2 Years 20MM, and then 5 years 25MM?

You will never survive with that outlook.

There's only a week between the draft and UFA day...

Pretty sure summer is more than a week. Plus this is how it is in the offseason of the NHL every year. The next month should see some movement in terms of trades and then UFA signings. Things then tail off for the most part until training camp. You'll get the occasional UFA signing in between there, but that's about it. Every. Single. Year.
