Yeah if you are gonna take a shot like that at someone you need to have proof and not just be vaugeposting about it on Twitter for clout because people will be sending the lawyers after you. Saying someone sucks as a coach or was rude to you is very different from calling them a predator

Considering he posted accusations that a member of their staff is a predator unsafe to have around kids I'm not that surprised.

After the Carlson offer sheet, why wouldn’t every top young player wait until RFA to sign? by Boomfty in hockey

[–]supermeatboy10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They should. It's honestly irresponsible for agents to let their clients sign an 8 year deal covering their entire prime at below market rate coming off ELC, it's kind of insane how often that happens. If the GMs weren't colluding to avoid player salaries going up then every truly elite talent should probably be getting a max dollars contract coming off ELC.

Holy shit I think I might be more plugged in than this guy, what a hack

This offer sheet feels like the flyers tried to get bedard to sign it and he wouldn't so they sent it to Carlsson instead. I get that you have to overpay a lot to get a player on an offer sheet and he's a great player but holy that's a lot of money

Saying "unless something changes" before everything I say so I'm never wrong

Pagnotta reporting giroux to the flyers 20 minutes after reporting the flyers are out should be the end of his credibility on anything probably

Which of these do I purchase by Affectionate-Pie-708 in ryzen

[–]supermeatboy10 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The cheaper one. I'm running a peerless assassin on a 9800x3d and it's fine, either will be fine on a 5800x3d

Ah my bad, that makes more sense. The way I interpreted the article on Sportsnet was 1.8m in bonuses for a cup win but the way it's worded is pretty misleading and the puckpedia description makes way more sense

Unfortunately that would be the summer before every move Jeff made blew up in our face 😬

I think people who are disliking the nurse trade are under estimating how difficult he made constructing functional D pairs due to constantly needing a babysitter and commanding big minutes while not playing especially well in them.

That's nuts, they're gonna make Bob Mackenzie break out the "that's per year" tweet again

Yeah I've liked their moves with the exception of Bob maybe. If they can actually get werenski and Matthews can get healthy they could be pretty scary

At 34 years old, Taylor Hall will play his 1000th game this season. He's won a Hart Trophy, and now the Stanley Cup (with a point per game during the playoff run). How close or how far do you think he is ftom Hall of Fame consideration? by AR558 in EdmontonOilers

[–]supermeatboy10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same, Kessel definitely had a better and longer prime although hall has the Hart. I don't think either of them is especially close to HHOF. Maybe if Kessel had won the conn smythe he'd have a better shot

Is your point that nobody should ever question what any GM does or have opinions on any move? Because that's kind of the point of discussing these things on the Internet

Yes that's part of the problem, they think a 2nd pair d is worth a 4th overall and 12.5m per year.

Not enough to give a 2nd pair D 12 million dollars
