you know how much Tom laughs his ass off everytime he's able to pull this off

oh that's right you absolutely do, he sends you PMs about it

Holy paranoia Batman. If i knew how to screenshot and post in here i'd show you that's wrong because i'm kind of worried that you might have one of those Pepe Silvia string boards up in your room that you smoke cigarettes and do blow in front of all hours of the night trying to piece together the HockeyBuzz Conspiracy

Only way Nash sees the ice is if:

The Rangers are terrible or the Rangers are very injured. That dude is cooked.

Meh, low risk possible high reward if he can mesh with some linemates. I have no issues with it.

Im actually sure you think it's a good move, but stating it on here would put you at odds with Tom, so you had to lie and say you are indifferent about it

definitely wouldnt want to be caught agreeing with me on hockeybuzz!

Makes sense. Every year team pick up role players. Some surprise, some end up in the AHL. Vesey is a good example had some crap years and a good year last year. Granted he is still only 30

He's one of the 800K players you keep. He's rebounded nice into a 3rd line option. Probably most useful on the 4th line. But for his production. Big time value with hm.

I mean I can post the two message about when rick was banned for repeating the line of him being kicked in the head. There is no conspiracy theory.

Always loved his work ethic. Dude played hard every shift. Just has some awful hands, and horrible scoring luck. Smart player though

Ok i swore i woudn't repeat myself regarding wheeler because A) i don't want to give in to the lunacy and B) i'm sick of talking about him but because of my previously mentioned concern for your well being i will restate it:

(not that anyone cares about my take that much)

At $800k it's a low risk signing. So long as he doesn't box out the kids from top 6 ice time (unless and until any of them prove they don't have what it takes) I am cool with throwing him out there. Just has to be in a role that makes sense. All he can really do right now is set up teammates. He is slow and bad defensively, so play him with high energy/high motor guys who will shoot the puck like trocheck and/or kreider. Definitely don't put him on a line with Panarin. That seems wild to me

You see, while Tom is a pessimistic, sometimes annoyingly-analytic downer, he does so without slinging personal insults and claiming everyone is uniting against him. So yeah, we tend to be more outspoken toward you and TJ. You guys are far too often belligerent, nasty and simply wrong in your insinuations. With nary a thought of whether its warranted. Grow up, take some responsibility for your own actions and we can all just move on together and talk hockey. I have my doubts, though.

Wheeler is just a place holder.

TOM DOESNT LIKE THIS MOVE BECAUSE JIMMY AND I LIKE IT. that’s all we need to know Hell he may even like it, but that doesn’t fit in with his schtick
