I would like to kick all of you in the scrotum.

I think the point was what teams turned around in a year, both NJ and COL finished last and then made the playoffs the following year.
- Sabres1523

And then they sucked again. If my choice is miss the playoffs this year to have sustained playoff appearances in the following years or make the playoffs this season then suck again the next season, I am picking the former.

Aim a lot lower than you would expect.

Has anyone else seen these value charts on Marcus Davidsson?

He's #15 per Pronman, but I've seen him discussed as a top 5 prospect for us. I thought he had a down year this year, so can't argue either way, just curious on what we thought.
- RhinoFan

That we will know more once he starts playing games for Rochester next year
Seems like a bottom6 prospect from everything I’ve read

Joke's on you. I'm a eunuch

I was reading this MSN article and I thought of this board when I saw that pic. Black & green olives, everyone's favorite.

Green olives are basically just black olives that haven’t ripened yet

I'd rather read any one of those than read/listen to people discuss fantasy football strategy

At least there's hot women

The Sean Tierney value charts are garbage. And the DBTB droids are sucking its Richard.

There's my thoughts.

I've seen a chart where not only is Johan Larsson a forward AND a defenseman, he's also slated as 0% chance to make an NHL roster.

So, what the (frank) ever. Samuelsson is low ranked because of his lack of offense. Borgen is similar, for the same reason. Yet both project to be bottom 4 dmen the can separate players from the puck and get rid of it.

Cut whatever grain of salt you want to use with some of these charts, in half.

The simple fact is, too many people take a singular chart waaaay over the top and try to define players by one singular facet and it's really (frank)ing annoying.

Botterill could've easily added 2 veteran players at this draft, but instead he moved up in the mid rounds. He got Vesey for a 3rd, I'm sure he could've gotten 2 pending UFA vets instead of throwing them away to move up. So he gets a player for now AND the future, but instead scatters the picks to the four winds. I don't even want to get into the 6th for a future, worse 6th and trigger Homie.

I'm not saying he sucks, and I don't give a single flying (frank) about "prospect rankings" because of the myriad reasons already stated, but people are on their knees for this guy and he definitely has Murrayesque tendencies. There's no reason to trade a young guy and a first for a slightly older, more developed guy unless you're trying to speed things up. And moving up outside the top 10 is a fool's errand; if you think you know something that 30 other teams don't, you're a fool.

I'm sorry, but "not Tim Murray" is a mighty low bar to set.

No one is “on their knees” for Botts

They’re just defending ridiculous criticisms by those going overboard

I have said it’s inappropriate to make jokes about a guy’s wife and I’m sticking with it.

Colorado- Traded away the cancer that was ROR (this is for my entertainment purposes) and got Rantanen. This team was rebuilding for a long time prior (1 playoff appearance in the previous 7 years). This team is going to be good for a long time if their goaltending holds up

New Jersey-turned into a lotto team after 1 season after stealing Taylor Hall (damn it Chirelli)
- Stripes77

Colorado just won its first playoff series since trading ROR
Meanwhile, he just won the Cup

Just over 2 weeks till we get to officially call cozens a bust for either not playing in the prospects challenge or not scoring more than 5 goals in it.
- IndianaSabresFan

He came in for lunch 2weeks ago
Cast was off
Said he was on pace to play & expected to be cleared to do so

Huh?
I didn’t do that?
Was repeating a line Bandit used & disagreeing with it

Are u not interested to know that Cozens is on schedule to play?

I think what u meant to say was “thanks for the info”

Btw, you’re welcome

What is your position on mayonnaise-based salads?

A tuna based pasta salad made correctly is sublime. Zero olives always and forever.

What are you talking about, he was a bust the literal second he was drafted by Buffalo
