Just thought I would chime in here and say I told you so. DavidBooth is nothing more than a POS bully who plays the victim anytime he is called out. He apologizes and then does the same thing over and over again and you clowns fall for it every time.

Cheers donkeys!


Do you still pay attention to what happens here lmao


Nope. Someone just told me I was right about him so I thought I'd pop in to see what stupid crap he had done now.

And now I bid you adieu!

Who wants a lightly used Kyle Quincey or Gustav Olofsson? If you do, hit me up.


In addition to this, who wants Alex Galchenyuk and Sam Steel? I will give up both of them in a deal for a 1C.


Finally, who wants a one year rental of Josh Bailey? I'll even retain 50% on him.

What happened to being able to explaining the deals before being reversed? I've been working all day so I haven't had the chance to come on until now.

Not trying to sound too condescending here but how do you explain:

Rakell, Silf, Larsson, Gibson, a 6th, and a 7th
FOR
Jones, Schenn, Fast, and an ECHL player

.. I'm honestly curious to hear this explanation.

Mine isn't as bad.

Spurgeon > Vatanen
Hertl > Chucky
Aberg < Buchnevich
Soucy <<<< Steel
Bernier <<<< 4th round pick

A huge loss on the add-ons, but a clear win on the main pieces.

depends on how you view it but not near as bad as the other one...

Spurgeon < Vats
Hertl > Chucky
Aberg < Buchnevich
Soucy < Steel
Bernier < 4th

.. it's still 4 losses for ANA out of the 5 views but way more understandable than that three way trash above lol

if i'm correct about who all of these guys are. I believe Chucky and Bernier are Jonathan Bernier and Galchenyuk?
Not sure why, but my post didn't get posted correctly.

Thank You IceGirl for trying to defend our trade. True class there. As for those that are throwing me under the rug, think. How many other trades similar to this one haven't been overturned? Quite a few. I'm not pleased that I wasted hours trying to get these 2 deals done. Takes the fun out of the game to be scared to make a trade now.

**nothing against you Kayla**

Uhhh.. not that hard to defend a trade that you won. And clearly, Kayla won. Should there have been trades overturned before? Absolutely. But that's the past, and if we want to continue to try to make this as "realistic as possible" (shoutout to RAIF), then we need to start reversing the bad ones. If you want to trade just to trade and make terrible deals at the same time, there are v1 openings.

Spurgeon is definitely better than Vatanen. I don't think this trade needs to be reversed. It's nowhere near as bad as a number of other trades that have gone through.

The other 3-way trade is definitely unfair in my opinion. It probably should be reversed, but keep in mind that Schenn seems to have ridiculous value in this game (see Tavares trade(which was worse than this one))

That's exactly my issue too. Guys, at least let the guy make his case. Or instead of reverting everything, modify the deals. That way it doesn't seem as though everyone's time has been wasted. Let those GMs who you think "won" the deal, still win when you modify it, but just let it be to a lesser degree then, so they're still compensated. Take other gms times into account when making moves like these. Thank you.

PSA:

Apparently, Booth only decided to be a dick so that he could flip Brickley for something. If he offers you Brickley, DO NOT GIVE HIM ANYTHIBG OF VALUE FOR BRICKLEY.

End of PSA.

When Marco comes in and offers JT 13 mil for 7yr and I lose him next year, will the JT trade still look bad then?

We will, in due time. Don't worry. UFA extensions will happen at some point.
