Thread: With Dubas gone
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DougieGilmour</b></div><div>Wow I’m reading something rational from a Wings fan on ACGM. This is a change of pace and certainly a refreshing development.</div></div>

"It is so much harder to find a #1 defenseman than an elite winger, on top of the fact that Seider is 4 years younger."

Seeing as Leafs fans are so smart, I didn't think it was necessary to go into detail about all this, but I'm the utterly delusional one... Never said Seider is better or Marner is ****, it's very obvious you don't give up a 1D who is much younger, team controlled, and on a team that has nobody else even close to comparable back there.

This is literally the exact point I was making by saying I wouldn't do the deal straight up 1 for 1 that you called utter delusions, make it make sense.

Thread: WINGS
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SupremeBone</b></div><div>A lot of people have gotten harsh on Ceci lately. I get his performance in the playoffs wasn't good, but it's not like he's getting beaten by 3rd and 4th lines. The guy is playing a pairing above his established level on a 1st pairing tasked with shutdown duties. At 3.25mil for another 2 years, he strikes me as a really solid option for a team that can needs a 2nd or 3rd pair RD to help shelter young LD. Not too much term or too much money. Is it simply that you'd prefer they pursue other options first or is it genuinely an "I'd never even consider the guy on my team" situation? If it's the latter, can you elaborate on why?</div></div>

I prefer other options, he does have a decent contract and is a stop gap. With that said, I personally think he isn't a great defender, so he wouldn't be my first choice, but if it's between him and Trouba (don't want either) I'd go Trouba with salary retained.
