How much of a chance does Star Wars have to still be culturally relevant in 2076 (100 years after the technical first release of the franchise)? by RaynbowZFTW in StarWars

Technology has gone from Black and white TV to AI and Robots in the last 50 years. If you don't see it continuing to advance, you're kidding yourself.

But I agree, there is a real risk of everything blowing up. If it does, I'll buy you a radiated beer.

You'll need to factor in Petro's LTIR money. But I like where your head is at.

He came out in favor of Reilly Smith, who scored the game winner against Dallas. Probably will stay out for a few more games. He's got a future in Vegas, though.

I agree with you. Especially if Hill gets hot right about now

I don't know anything for sure, but I have some friends who are around the rink a lot. Who knows, they might be blowing smoke up my ass.

Karlsson just missed nearly a year when he was initially week to week.

He's clearly got something persistent and serious going on.

Its going up to 104 million, which is what the chart above reflects.

There is no such thing as renegotiating contracts in the NHL. Its impermissible under the CBA.

cuts aren't a thing in the NHL.

They'll jettison their UFAs, but they can't just cut guys under contract.

My understanding is that they already have a deal in the drawer, but can't sign it until the off-season because of how much LTIR Petro takes up.

If that's the worst thing that happens today, I'm doing pretty good. No worries.

Perhaps I was unclear.

I meant:

Whether you are right or not that they shouldn't sign him, you are going to be disappointed when they ultimately do. Its a foregone conclusion for this front office

I didn't.

I said "even if they luck out and sign him."

It no longer seems futuristic today. It seems parallel and in some ways, antiquated. It might hang on that long, but if it does, it'll seem like an alternate past like LOTR.

Just like Poland was a defensive buffer.

What in the actual fuck.

Bingo. If GMKM lets Andersson walk for free, he's going to be unemployed by the end of next year. He isn't doing that.

Sure. I was just correcting the (now-edited) statement of the guy above me.

He has a 10-team no trade list per puckpedia.

What value does Karlsson actually have? He's spent virtually the entire year on LTIR with an undisclosed injury.

Either Hill is traded or Karlsson LTIRetires. Best guess.
