Even without the NYI 1st rounder (which will likely be 15th overall) the OTT trade is horrifically lopsided . Formenton already possesses elite NHL speed and is eclipsing Bowers in both potential and points. In his ROOKIE season he is top 7 in AHL points, top 5 in goals. One for one that's a big loss for Ottawa.
And then Ottawa is getting a 3rd round pick and Johnson in return for a Daccord, a 4th and 1st (which will likely be 15th overall). NO. Swap Johnson for Makar and then there's at least a conversation starter.

lol for Makar? Get real I wouldn't take those 4 pieces for Makar.

Nor should you. I wouldn't either. It was my SUPER unrealistic counter-offer to the original SUPER unrealistic offer. Formenton and a 1st round pick in one of the deepest drafts in decades for a 32 year old D man and an "okay" prospect who'd be playing outside of top 6 in Belleville this year? When I see trade offers like this I like to counter-offer this way in hopes of meeting somewhere back in reality.

Why retain 325 bucks on Cole?

To cover the cost for his new home and away jerseys?

bruh

So much bad and nonsensical. I know he is listed as a C, but Kaut isn’t a C.

makar...delusional much hahahah get out of here with this crap

Yep. It's delusional, just like the original trade suggested. That's kind of my point.

It was a bad trade but don’t double down over exaggerating making it an even worse one with a makar counter comment

Sorry, I wasn't aware that this was your website. I'll try to adhere to your rules in the future.

You do you but don’t get sensitive and defensive if you post an Exaggerated response that opens you up to these sort of mocking responses.
