Right!?

More I dig into Zacha, the more I want a hard (frank)in pass. Pavel Ristolainen is enough for me.

Button was wrong, the only 'condition' removed from conditional picks is an upgrade of pick if the player re-signs with his new team.

Teams have requested and recived Taresenkos medical records.

Has this happened with Eichel. I assume it has, but I have not heard/ seen it reported anywhere.

Several posts on this and the previous page that quote the CBA as to the change that restricts conditions the conditions...effectively the outlawed conditional compensation based on signing a contract with the acquired player. That is it. May impact thexSabres as it would apply to a potential Rhino trade.

This is the rule. No more discussion needed on it

I'm planning on Risto being here until the trade deadline where they'll probably land a 2nd plus a prospect for him as a rental

He’s better than Ristolainen and it’s not remotely close man.

I’m not sure why you’ve limited the research to two random years of their career either but from what I remember Zacha has some strong defensive metrics for at least a few years of his short career.

Nothing is being reported, but initially it sounded like they were only going to release the records to a team who essentially agreed to a compensation package.

Tarasenko's value is in the tank and he 'should' be completely healed. Think it's a bit of a different scenario.

Not a bad read!!

- Buff36

Hey Fluffer, you PM the bunch of dopes an Eichel deal for every team in the league from your made up source yet? Got to make sure you cover all bases you now. If my calculations are correct, Eichel will be traded between Monday and Wednesday. Sabres will be serving up an Eichel and #1 OA combo meal. 3ER’s intuition >>> your source.

I limited it to this year and the past 3 years combined. So I didn't simply 'pick' two random years.

Can you show me how and when he ever excelled defensively?

Every number, every chart says he's basically Tage Thompson on defense. If you can show me a model that shows otherwise, I would love to learn.

He's played 5 full (w/ injuries) seasons.

Ok. I’ll concede because for some reason I can’t renew my patreon with evolving wild and can’t find his WAR card on Twitter anywhere.

I must be confusing him with someone else

I have the EH sub. All of their information points to him being bad. It's not easy posting his player card, I have to do a work around.

Edit-This is the past 3 seasons combined

OG Larry blows Zacha out of the (frank)ing water. Eye test and player cards show he's an exceptional defensive forward, (frank) off Ralph and Kevyn.

Its a forum for talking hockey. Why are you and your butt budd the only ones that make a fit about his posts?

The league went a little too conditional crazy a few years ago. You can see why the PA would take issue with the re-sign condition. It actively discouraged the team from resigning the player.

Cody Eakin: Twice as useful on defense as Zacha. Christ.

*Zacha a significantly more useful player, on offense.

I don't mind the value, I'm not sure I understand the reasoning of acquiring Marner.
