I was trying to find the article, but Briere told WGR after his arbitration in 2006 hearing that "4 years 4.5 million per year was never offered" or something like that. Supposedly that pissed Quinn and Golisano off.

People can say what they want about Darcy but he did bring in 2 centers, one that was a ppg guy in his career here and the other was the heart and sole of the team.

A d corps with all puck movers and no defensemen is either going to get Botterill fired or get him a medal
- jcragcrumple


True, probably the former, but Risto is no good defensively either, so I'm not sure it's a change for the worse.

Gardiner and Risto are pretty equal. If that's the case, if you can sign one to a decent deal, trade the other, then I think you're creating assets in some sense. I would not mind that.

On Twitter, I'm a famous educational theorist-philosopher so I can express my political views freely and not have them held against me when I apply for my next job.

Everywhere else I am a professor in one of the worst countries in the world.

Bottcoin plummeted once the league found out:

Except one plays the right side and the other the left.
One is going to be 29 (tomorrow) and the other is going to be 25(October).

If you can get Gardiner on a 3 yr deal in the 6-6.5 range then I guess but I doubt you can get him to sign for 3 yrs.

Where did the Jake Gardiner rumor come from?

And my true identity is a plumber that wears red suspender jeans / red hat and married to a princess.

I piss in a lot of people's cereal depending on the situation but I must have pissed in a big bowl because @WGR55 blocked me and I have no idea why. It could have been when I pissed in Schopp's that's all can equate it to.

One is an offensive defenseman and the other collects secondary assists on the second PP

I can't listen to that guy. He's a smug, arrogant, degenerate gambler. He also seems to hate his job and his sports takes are uninformed and preposterous. Eff that guy.

And we're overloaded on rights currently, so you can add correcting handedness to the list of reasons to do it.

6.8M x 5 is fine with me. You aren't going to get him for 3 years and I think the return for Risto makes that worth it.
