I did shrooms one time in college for 4 months.
Heard a comedian say something like that recently.
Really glad I never tried anything besides alcohol until much later in life, I certainly was not ready for that when I was younger. Probably not ready for it now anyway.
My stoner friends were idiots and that turned me off back then.

Don't watch That 90's Show.
We tried.
It sucked.

It’s quite possible I heard that but it would’ve been from years and years ago. Not shrooms but the “tried something once for x amount of time”

I think the quote was about losing vast amounts of time. Not sure from your post if that was what you were getting at or if you were taking them for a while.

We got sucked in for a few episodes when the original actors showed up and that was bad. It got worse from there. The chemistry from That 70's show is not there and it's not working for the new actors at all.

The crazy thing is that even if he gets brought back up and catches fire (relative to his abilities), he probably won't even get a fair shake from most of the fan base.

The Timo Meir rumors make no sense. They are really going to move a laf or Kakko for a 3
Month rental? If you move them better be for something long term or you are franked

I would not trade any top assets for a rental this year. The team is not balanced or deep enough to make a long run in the playoffs. That being said, I wouldn’t be opposed to dealing Laf in the off season. I don’t believe he’ll ever be more than a 20 goal scorer. His lack of skating skills will hamper him throughout his career, hardly what would have been expected from the #1 pick.

The only way I’d trade Laf is because of the LW excess. It’s nuts how everyone were hoping on is LW I do think he’ll will be a PPG player eventually tho, with the right circumstances. Maybe it isn’t here for that to happen idk. They have to be smart tho and not just trade him for the sake of trading him. The kid line can buzz all night as we’ve seen, so we could be for a treat down the road. Patience is very hard so I get that part.

As this season has gone along things can change and I think right now the smartest thing Drury can do is plan for next year. With that means he should probably sign these 3 now, and not wait til the summer. The 3 meaning: Chytil Miller and Laf. At least if Laf is signed you can trade him anyway. Risking him to an offer sheet in the summer is the worst thing possible imo. Get those 3 set in the core and move forward after that. Chytil and Miller have imo been the best rangers lb for lb all year so we definitely don’t want them offer sheeted

Chytil and Miller would be wise to sign now, I doubt their stock will get much higher than it is.

LAF on the other hand would be wise to wait since his stock is very low.

But it would be nice to get these things out of the way. Im sure Drury has numbers in mind already so that may play a role in our trade window.

I say laf too because I do actually think he could get an offer sheet. Give him 2 years 2.5 or something like that, I think we can do that

What would Miller & Chytil numbers be? 5 million I’d hope is the max 😬

Yea, Im hoping no more than 5m for them, maybe a little less for Miller, but Chytil def getting that if he continues to play at his current pace.

As far as LAF goes, Im not saying Drury should wait, Im saying LAF should wait. Maybe his play improves and he could get more $.

Would love to have him here, but we simply can't afford to keep him past this season and I'm not giving up the house for a playoff rental.
Bring back Frankie with half his salary retained.

- Fenrir



I wonder if Verbeek would do that... I think he's gonna wait till he has an actual coach for Frankie and Strome before he guts guys with term left.

Now all the guys that are UFA's this yr.. yeah they be gone.

Although I think he would move both Silf and Uncle Rico if he could find a taker with 30 or 40% retained.. Rico could work for you guys as a pivot and wing who is a pro's pro. And knows what it takes to win in playoffs.

Haven't backread here so don't know if it's been discussed. Sharks supposedly want Othmann, a 1st, and either Chytil/Lafreniere for Meier. Obviously you have to sign Meier long term for that package, but how can you afford another 8M+ player given you only have 16M in cap space next year with what, 14 players signed?.

Nope, he would have to be a rental. And that's a lot to give up for a rental.
