        Wow you've put a lot thought in to this. I don't know if I should be impressed or tell you to put your tinfoil hat back on. But all joking aside it is quite impressive.

        This team is so much better than where we are now lol, an upgrade on Hornqvist would be the only thing this team needs really (or another RW, bc Hornqvist isn't gonna play 82 games in a season)

        Trust me I know it’s completely insane...but seriously not having Cullen caused GMJR to make a series of odd mistakes starting with the “force trade” to bring Derick Brassard to Pittsburgh.
