It's my understanding that late 1st round picks are waste of time.
- Marwood


True. It’s the 5th round picks(Kaprizov) and 7th round picks(Pavelski) that matter.

How hilariously young and privileged this statement is. Who's said anything about a 40 hour work week? We haven't got you past the concept of working a single 8 hour day yet.

I enjoy my job btw. I get to choose my schedule and amount of hours I work....because, ya know, I earned it through proving myself to people.

5 x 8 = 40 – the concept of an arbitrary work day or week is the same. Why is a work day 8 hours? Can a highly productive day not be 5 hours? Can a sit-at-a-desk-and-do-nothing day be 8 hours?

How hilariously naive and filled with juvenoia this statement is. There are young people who work way harder than you, there are also young people who work way smarter than you. The youth aren't the problem, it's the decrepit aging people slowing down the path of progress with outdated views and brittle bones

I enjoy my career too. People pay me for what I make, I travel the world for it, and I add to the cultural milieu. I, too, have earned/am earning it through proving myself. You ain't alone in that, gramps

Late first round picks just aren’t that valuable. If they trade miller it all depends on how good of a young player they can get back. I’m not optimistic
- CanuckDon

A late 1st is the 3rd best piece in any deal for Miller imo.

You interpreted "I could see them moving Hoglander" as "I think they should trade Hoglander"

Give him some slack... he's not very bright.

Jesus. Vancouver is trying to get better and tougher to play against. Not weaker and softer and way worse.
- TurdFergeson


Give me some examples of them trying to get tougher to play against. So far I see Hamonic and Motte, two players you can call sand paper out... and Dermott and a couple of Swedes in...

For Hoglander? You won't get much for him, futures maybe. Boudreau hates him.

Boudreau hated Fiala and stifled Erickson-Ek. I liked Bruce. But sometimes his decision-making is mind boggling.

Better watch out. Nathan Gerbe could be lurking here.

That's fair enough, we'll see how he makes out over the course of a whole season.

John Shannon re-upping his mantra that we’re going to see massive changes.

So how can this be spun into country club dressing room and everyone will be moved including Demko, for all the aging vets on Pittsburgh?

I have no idea. I just assume they want their own team/style and they’re going to go ahead and change things.
