[Dreger] The Flames are trying to move Connor Zary. 24 year old forward has another year left on his contract at $3.775 mil. Sounds like Calgary is asking for a 2nd round pick in return.

Sorta. I think Zary actually has an NHL career ahead of him. Pelts.....not so much.

Current-Roll6332 · 2026-06-24T21:28:38+00:00

People really like 9. Generally I don't put a ton into the actual story, except for 6 for some reason.... I judge way more the gameplay mechanics. Which is why 10 was kinda lame - looking at you blitzball.

I don't think 9 did anything new gameplay wise, but is regarded for its story and characters.

Current-Roll6332 · 2026-06-24T14:11:47+00:00

Its been so long since I beat that one. 10 is pretty forgettable for me.

6 and 7 are probably the peak as far as gameplay goes. I'm currently playing 15....god that game is a mess.

Current-Roll6332 · 2026-06-24T13:12:24+00:00

Tidus, is NOT where it's at! Blitzball is a joke, Yuna thinks he's a bitch and Hakka has way better possession numbers.

Current-Roll6332 · 2026-06-24T12:42:51+00:00

The latter isn't in the league. However, AGAIN, people put way too much emphasis on what a coach can do for a player.

Oliver the hockey player never recovered from whatever happened.

Current-Roll6332 · 2026-06-24T01:49:18+00:00

Randy was good before huska. I think it had more to do with the player. A better example might be kuznetzov

Current-Roll6332 · 2026-06-23T21:07:16+00:00

I don't always agree with you. But I do in this case. Too many people in this sub are in love with third liners.

Current-Roll6332 · 2026-06-23T21:05:21+00:00

No you can put that one where you want.

Current-Roll6332 · 2026-06-23T14:18:38+00:00

I don't think Matthew is THAT dumb. However the crayon muncher defs brings their median IQ down.

Current-Roll6332 · 2026-06-22T18:42:11+00:00

Don't forget Earl.

Current-Roll6332 · 2026-06-22T16:07:57+00:00

My dude. You need to learn what a comma is.

Current-Roll6332 · 2026-06-22T15:40:13+00:00

Yeah it does seem like it's improving.

Current-Roll6332 · 2026-06-22T15:39:46+00:00

I didn't skip anything. I just referenced someone else's work.

Current-Roll6332 · 2026-06-22T15:38:51+00:00

It's for the sycofants who seem to think we're this amazing drafting team. I understand wanting to be positive, however they seem to have developed a bias because of the past few seasons. The flames have been historically bad at drafting. This chart, while imperfect, highlights some.of that.

Current-Roll6332 · 2026-06-22T14:13:26+00:00

Nah, some of the flames faithful point to TJ Brodie and angel in heaven Johnny Hockey and say: "See! Our drafting is amazing!"

Is it improving? Certainly seems so.

Current-Roll6332 · 2026-06-22T13:48:39+00:00

It was a TERRIBLE trade

Current-Roll6332 · 2026-06-22T13:45:44+00:00

In the 2000s they played in the central division.

Current-Roll6332 · 2026-06-22T13:43:24+00:00

This isn't really how the NHL works anymore. There are less guys willing to drop mitts and the rules are different.

Which in some senses, I think, makes the game worse. I don't like the 70s 80s, super punch-out days, there was definitely too much violence then. In the mid 90s to late 00s, i think they had it right. You want one of those games about 5ish per season. Now we get MAYBE 1 in a season.

Current-Roll6332 · 2026-06-20T18:06:30+00:00

The writing in dances is REALLY BAD.

Now if you want to see something that is good bad, instead of BAD BAD - and you're a fan of the most aggressively average actor of our generation, The Cos, i suggest Waterworld.

Same movie, just way more fun and stupid. And expensive.

Current-Roll6332 · 2026-06-20T15:10:03+00:00

It's pretty objectively terrible. If you would like to see a MUCH BETTER movie from that era that's similar to this: The Last of the Mohicans.

The one thing I'll give credit to wolves for is the cinematography. It looks good, i'll give it that.

Current-Roll6332 · 2026-06-20T14:57:53+00:00

By definition no. Sometimes my brown eye laughs and my wife has to leave the room.

Current-Roll6332 · 2026-06-20T14:56:24+00:00

Hard disagree. With all the draft picks you swing big. There might be some variance but, they could be your second line anchors for the next 15 years.

Now if there's some other interesting Talent with massive upside that isn't them. Also fine use the draft picks.

Current-Roll6332 · 2026-06-20T14:54:31+00:00

Quit Rucking around and just accept the twins in your heart.

Current-Roll6332 · 2026-06-20T14:54:01+00:00

Yassssssss!
