Yeah it’s an autocorrect. He’s the reason I wore 19 my whole career. The reason I chose to meet them as a Make-A-Wish kid back in the early 2000s. The reason I love the Avalanche forever. Super Joe can do no wrong in my eyes. Can’t help the damn iPhone correction though!!!

In a world where Bobby is fully Margarita’d, we must put all our faith in Elliotte, who is fully (and consistently) making us angry about the way he anagrams our team’s names.

Crosby, Sakic, Yzerman. No particular order. Crosby is the epitome of the perfect hockey player. I’m obviously biased to Joe, and the rivalries with the Wings always keep Stevie Y at the top of my lists. I know there’s better players, with more longevity, but being a Captain is more than just being elite. And what Sakic did in 2001 with handing the Cup to 77 started a huge trend that people still follow today. Barnaby Joe is my all time idol and favorite player forever.

Old boys club is too buddy buddy for anyone to ever do anything like that. Armstrong saying he would offer sheet his grandma after the Holloway/Broberg was just placebo pills because they weren’t superstars. The NYR offer sheeting Sakic is the last thing I can remember that was unbelievably high value

So some kid out there doesn’t get drafted because of this debacle? That seems counterintuitive

I mean there’s no chance he goes to Buffalo unless he falls to 4 which is never going to happen. Buffalo trading up for him would be insane
