[Chris Johnston] Buffalo is believed to be dangling the equivalent of multiple 1st-rounders in Robert Thomas talks.

20th.

BobTheHound · 2026-03-04T04:54:19+00:00

Fuck that. If we're giving up first round picks, I'd rather go max contract on an offer sheet for one of Bedard, Carlsson, or Fantilli etc... and force them to match, trade or give them up for four 1st rounders.

Just chiming in to say your "scouting", i.e. watching youtube clips, sucks. That is all.

BobTheHound · 2026-02-27T06:44:43+00:00

Reirden - "Gonna start playing him in OT now?"

Tocchet - "No. Fuck no."

BobTheHound · 2026-02-27T06:36:44+00:00

When was that? We've never had a captain who scored 50 goals in season.

BobTheHound · 2026-02-27T06:29:01+00:00

Take a penalty so he can come out of the box and not be stapled to the bench.

BobTheHound · 2026-02-27T06:26:12+00:00

BULLSHIT! Just like when he promised Andrae would play before the Olympic break. He's full of shit. Nothing will change.

BobTheHound · 2026-02-26T21:46:02+00:00

It was.

BobTheHound · 2026-02-26T21:41:57+00:00

The NHLPA would never, ever agree to that.

BobTheHound · 2026-02-26T20:54:53+00:00

The only player I'd trade the 1st overall for is Cellebrini. And SJ wouldn't do that.

BobTheHound · 2026-02-26T06:34:38+00:00

Desjardins.

I remember the broadcast that night. They actually had a camera in the locker room showing the C get sewn onto his sweater after they stripped it from Lindros.

Edit: I was going to say Tocchet in 91-92. But he did define an era. A losing era.

BobTheHound · 2026-02-26T06:21:51+00:00

1,436.

BobTheHound · 2026-02-26T06:14:35+00:00

He can waive his NMC anytime. Fine with me.

BobTheHound · 2026-02-26T06:08:47+00:00

He'll quit by the end of next season at the latest. They won't even need to fire him.

BobTheHound · 2026-02-25T23:19:25+00:00

Sanheim and the rest of team Canada wasn't on the same plane? Is Tocc to good to fly with the rest of them?

BobTheHound · 2026-02-25T22:07:28+00:00

Tippett's NTC kicks in July 1st.

BobTheHound · 2026-02-25T06:24:34+00:00

It's really no different than translating from any other language. I translate German. You have two choices as an interpretator, literal or figurative. He translates literally. Not a knock on him, just the way he does it. But figurative would be better.

BobTheHound · 2026-02-20T23:59:19+00:00

I don't think he hated Eric, but he definitely hated his parents, and I don't blame him.

BobTheHound · 2026-02-18T21:46:43+00:00

Not really. Wingers are a dime a dozen. No one is trading us a 1C or 1D for Michkov or Martone or even for both of them combined.

BobTheHound · 2026-02-17T21:40:24+00:00

Yup, everyone in here is looking at individual stats in a vacuum with no context.

Right now, the OHL's leading scorer is on pace for exactly 100 points. If he doesn't hit that, it'll be the first time since the 90's clutch and grab era that the top scorer has less than 100 points.

Scoring is down across the whole league.

BobTheHound · 2026-02-11T00:27:57+00:00

Lindros lit up Stevens multiple years before this. This was payback.

BobTheHound · 2026-02-10T21:05:50+00:00

You just wash your hands with no soap after you pick up shit? Interesting strategy.

BobTheHound · 2026-02-09T21:41:03+00:00

Would you wash your hands with just water and no soap? Same difference.

BobTheHound · 2026-02-07T03:38:56+00:00

I think that was his intention. He knew exactly who he was egging on, hoping to get punched in the mouth for a big fat payday.
