Thread: if they fire treliving
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GM_SZK</b></div><div>I don’t get it? How is this different from keeping Treliving?</div></div>

because it means believing in prospects and skill instead of signing 5 100 foot UFAs like Domi and Bertuzzi.

Treliving is the worst free agent GM since Jim Benning. This roster keeps players and stops chasing patchwork which is the teams downfall this year.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>palhal</b></div><div>The author of this post should be fired for signing Tavares to a six year extension, and Brodie to five years. Another poor roster with 20 players and just six NHL Dmen.</div></div>

If any team could get Tavares for 5 million they'd sign him too long to make it a win for both sides.

Brodie isn't the problem on D in Toronto. He's fine and someone who can handle life in Toronto has extra value.

Thread: Theoretical KJ comes back to BC
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Augustus</b></div><div>Canucks fans everywhere are so glad you are not their GM then lol. Sorry mate, putting it as nicely as I can :)

Juulsen is what he is, and would be tough to lose without replacement D coming in for the bottom pair, yes, but seriously? Kravtsov, who isn't even signed, a 2026 1st and a 4th? Of course Columbus doesn't entertain it.

Edit: Sorry, if you meant the Lekkerimaki and Willander package, then you are right, maybe not, but I would consider it with D depth coming back from Columbus - Van's pick except Jiricek and the expensive guys. Still think Columbus likes Johnson too much, and he is more ready obviously, so tough one to give up.</div></div>

Our package is nothing special.

Neither is Kent Johnson.

The high picks who are all style and no substance don't usually pan out.

Zherdev
Bobby Ryan (sort of)
Kane (panned out)
Burmistrov
Yakupov
Galchenyuk
Drouin
Virtanen
Nylander (panned out)
Strome (sort of)

I don't want any part of that type of (oh he has a sick highlight reel) group

Thread: MY TEAM GETS GUENTZEL
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Cameron_Cobb</b></div><div>You don’t understand hockey enough. Guentzel is an elite goal scorer who could be the difference between a team winning the cup or not, Mikheyev is a good middle six forward</div></div>

Top Jake Guentzel comparable players.

Jonathan Drouin
Nick Schmaltz
Jaden Schwartz
Teuvo Teravainen

Ilya's comparables include
Mason Marchment
Michael Bunting
Carter Verhaeghe
and 2 bad players

Jake doesn't translate to an elite scorer without Crosby. He moves to a second line comp.
Ilya is a second line comp regardless.
Jake would do better with Petey than Ilya does in offense. But forechecking, speed, intangibles, Ilya is fantastic and every person on the team says so. They also have said fans doesn't understand how to evaluate Ilya.

Which paraphrased is the team saying stop ****ing about Ilya, dumb fans.
