I’m willing to make a huge bet with you that UPL will continue to suck next year.

I’m ready. I’ll be a rich man

And the point of my post was based on trust.

Do you trust UPL in crunch time? He said we 0-8-1 in must win games this year.

He didn't play much in October did he? They were out by November.
Must win games.

Just trust me bro i don't notice the panthers best players because Edmonton is slow

Actually no I don’t. I’ve given upl credit when he deserved it.

Again. Do you trust UPL like you would for Ryan miller or Hasek?

If you say no. Then I’m right

Hey, but that 1 year Deal was fine, didn't hurt us at all.

Funny how Edmonton was fast untill the finals

Has nothing to do with how Florida plays

It's in his contract, just in the corner where they put all the stuff you need a magnifying glass to read.

Imagine being a GM of an NHL Team (well, kinda a, sort of) and thinking I have to get Okie and SirFallsAlot back no matter what...just have to have that veteran leadership.

If Kevyn even mutter Girgensons name this offseason, even in a nightmare dream state, he should be executed on 1st and 1st.

Be a tough one if Girgensons is back again this year. To many players available that would be a upgrade.
I think Adams is gonna have trouble getting anyone to come here FA wise, think he hasn't done enough to make it a appealing place to come. Of course he can overpay a few mill

The conundrum is there are some very good FA targets for their needs... But like you said he will have difficulty attracting them here. In order to do so, he needs to pull off a trade that players will notice in a positive light. And there lies the problem, the whole league recognizes it so the prices will be high. 11-OA isn't strong enough on its own, especially now that
10-OA is in play as competition.

Good Post! I would actually like to keep 11, Sabres have enough Prospects that they could use a prized one or 2 in a deal. Use next years 1st if need be.

Time traveling back to 2016 to tell myself that by 2024. Eichel, ROR, Reinhart, Okposo, Erod, Bogo and Kulikov will all win the cup.

Yup.
I have stated that awhile ago.. some idiots laughed.. but that strategy is growing in popularity... Comments for a article on The Athletic were riddled with them.

I mentioned 11-OA because the GM-in-teaining has stated over and over again it is in play.

Samuelsson has drawn interest from several teams

According to multiple sources, TFP has learned several teams have poked around on the potential availability of defencemen Mattias Samuelsson.

Samuelsson, 24, is going to enter the second year of a seven-year, $30 million contract and comes with a healthy salary cap hit of just over $4.285 million per season.

While teams have inquired, Adams has told them he is not interest in parting with the young blueliner.

Yeah, I remember. Really gonna be interesting if he can get a Player to say Yes that fits are top 6 need or even middle 6. Who in trade is decent enough to help that doesn't have a clause.

It's a variable decision you can't make without information.

Emotionally I want 11 because I have a little draft tradition and having 11 is more fun. To keep the pipeline healthy it also makes more sense to me to get a younger kid at 11 and send out a 19/20 year old instead.

But you're looking for a top 6 wing or a top 9 center, and depending on the team, their caps and their pools, you have no idea what they want back.

So, I demand a trade using a prospect or pick, but I prefer keeping the pick.

Yea but ROR, Reinhart, Bogo, Kulikov and Okposo are all slow so does it really matter?
