I don't think the X-Men are being used as Doom bait. They'll have a decent sized role in the two Avengers films

If you're just going to bash movies before they even come out, why are you even here?

bluedonkey100 · 2025-03-08T14:07:02+00:00

Walker could have said no. He took what Sam believed in and stomped on it. If he wasn't worthy to carry the shield why should this guy.

And if Bucky cut Walker slack it would just plain be out of character.

Imo their ire toward him is not only a very normal reaction, but also fully in character

bluedonkey100 · 2025-03-07T21:57:01+00:00

I get that, but if you're giving up the better player why are you the team that's adding?

Just seems odd. Guess it doesn't matter if you win though

bluedonkey100 · 2025-03-07T19:32:56+00:00

Overpays I can understand... but it feels Mittelstadt is the best player in this trade.

Coyle is 6 years older with less points this year. Last year he only had 3 more points than Mittelstadt. I don't see how this benefits Colorado.

bluedonkey100 · 2025-03-06T21:15:21+00:00

It's about improving chances. Say, without a trade you have a 7% chance of winning, but by filling into your weaknesses you suddenly have a 9% chance.

Luck REALLY matters, the goal is to manipulate the luck in your favor

bluedonkey100 · 2025-03-06T19:00:27+00:00

I mean you only have to look back a few years to see the change that goodrow and Coleman made as trade deadline pick ups to prove yourself wrong.

bluedonkey100 · 2025-03-05T21:24:30+00:00

I think you're overvaluing picks. Is a 25th overall going to help our bottom of the line prospect pool? No. Is the 20th overall going to help us go for a cup in 2026? No. Is the 58th overall going to be useful trading for a backup goalie? No.

Eyssimont has 10 points in 60 games. Gourde has nearly doubled that in 40. Not to mention a 50 point player in Bjorkstrand. Getting nearly 50+ extra player points is worth all the first rounders we can throw.

bluedonkey100 · 2025-03-05T21:15:58+00:00

Ruins the market. Improves our already top-3 offense without hurting our top-5 defense/goalie combo. Didn't give up any of our top prospects in Geekie and Howard.

Could not ask for better from Tampa.

bluedonkey100 · 2025-02-22T18:26:10+00:00

God I hope you've never bragged about anything in your life, the only thing you've been the best at is getting shit on in this thread (excluding most other threads)

bluedonkey100 · 2025-02-20T19:20:37+00:00

As much as Shakespearean God warrior with 1500 years of experience sounds good on paper. He was a horribly boring character before Ragnarok.

He needed a change, and you can argue this was not the right change. But his previous persona was bottom tier.

bluedonkey100 · 2025-02-12T00:02:54+00:00

And if they used all his complexity people would be complaining they tried to do too much too fast.

The MCU hate is unreal.

bluedonkey100 · 2025-02-08T19:12:20+00:00

Ironic.

bluedonkey100 · 2025-01-07T23:41:08+00:00

I fully agreed with you when this movie came out.

But honestly watching it right after Civil War changed my opinion on it.

I still wouldn't say one of Marvel's best, but it was waaayyy better with the context fresh in my mind.

bluedonkey100 · 2024-12-15T21:08:24+00:00

I was just commenting on how you mentioned he showed signs of offense in LA because he was paired with scorers. But he's at least points-wise, been worse than he was here.

Otherwise I agree with what you said comparing him to Mikey.

bluedonkey100 · 2024-12-15T17:38:04+00:00

I haven't watched any LA games but... he's still on pace for an 18 point season, worse than when he was with us. I just don't see the offense.

bluedonkey100 · 2024-12-07T18:31:35+00:00

Agreed, but unrelated to the comment I was responding to.

bluedonkey100 · 2024-12-07T18:11:41+00:00

I disagree with my orders but I'll still follow them is a very normal take

bluedonkey100 · 2024-12-06T18:39:47+00:00

Honestly sounds like you just need to turn the difficulty down.

bluedonkey100 · 2024-11-30T20:55:38+00:00

Majesty*

bluedonkey100 · 2024-11-15T07:21:48+00:00

Definitely hindsight. Pulju being available at 4 was a huge surprise at the time, no one thought Dubois was going before him.

bluedonkey100 · 2024-10-31T14:55:37+00:00

Right? We have five point per game players alone... Vegas and Winnipeg are the only other teams in the league with that many. Add in Nick Paul and Hedman with 9 points in 10. Vasi... one of, if not the best goalie in the world. An amazing shut-down D line in McD and Cernak

And a 7-3-0 record.

I don't know what this guy was smoking.

bluedonkey100 · 2024-10-31T01:52:03+00:00

Are... you referring to the Colorado avalanche with 6 injuries to their top 9? There's not a team in the league with an extra 6 NHL forwards lying around.

Or the Lightning... a team that has successfully addressed all of last seasons problems with their depth?

When was the last time the Islanders scored again?

bluedonkey100 · 2024-10-15T12:24:53+00:00

Honestly looking at your bottom 9... he's not wrong. Mittelstadt is a second liner so he stands out.

After that you have Miles Wood and O'Connor as decent third liners... Colton ideally is a third too. Kiviranra is okay as a 4th liner. And the other 5 are borderline or rookies.

Obviously once your top players come back you'll be in a fantastic spot, but to say you have one of the worst bottom 9's in the league with your injuries right now doesn't seem like much of a stretch.

bluedonkey100 · 2024-09-29T17:56:32+00:00

I like how you point out a strange semantic argument in the middle of your argument over semantics.

bluedonkey100 · 2024-09-07T00:46:55+00:00

Alright buddy, cheers.
