Dorion is a brutal GM. Could let ChatGPT run the team and you'd get better results
One of my friends (who know nothing about hockey) would like this comment lol
Quoting: Hammerwise
I cant see it, I was shocked about them not trying to trade Sokolov, JBD or thomson though, somebody would have thrown them a 4th at least for each of those.
if Branstrom doesn;t make team, I could see a Brannstrom as having value.
Dorion has proven time after time that he has no idea about players' values and that he can be talked into about anything. Examples :
- I know you're rebuilding but Gustavsson is not that good, I'll give you 35 y/o UFA-to-be Cam Talbot for him
- I know about the urban legend that are "cap dumps" but you need Derek Stepan and his relatively cheap 6.5 AAV, give me a 2nd round pick
- You don't want to trade Mike Hoffman to an Eastern team? Ok I'll give you Mikkel Boedker who is still in his prime and a 6th round pick. Give me Mike and a 5th, ok? (Then SJ flips him to the Panthers with a 7th for a 2nd, a 4th and a 5th)
In the real world, there'd be no chance that Brannstrom is not the 5th best D-man on this team (would be 2nd pairing on many teams) but with Dorion, you never know... could be waived which is why my Sens colleague made this thread
