Thread: Rangers next summer
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LogicOnly</b></div><div>Debrusk had a bad year due to COVID, and is still 24, and I got people saying he has hit his Cap!
Again, the Flames got Johnny and Tkachuk, and then also have two solid 3LW, so idk why people think they are a target for Debrusk

Thats two examples with the same guy, but they are good examples nonetheless.

And yeah, I have made a couple of my own, and I literally said, I know that none of what I did is actually wrong (Like we are talking about now), but obvously people can disagree with me. But again because none of what I did is factually wrong, if they want to disagree, they gotta do is respectfully.

I have been called rude for respectfully disagreeing, I have had rude people on my posts being jerks even though its fully opinion kind of stuff, and I have been called names for calling out things that are factually wrong (like the stuff we are talking about), people just dont get it lol. Just take pride in knowing that you, like myself, do get it. We are of the few that understand right from wrong, and opinion from fact</div></div>


I try to have some humility about and ask for real critique instead of just flaming.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LogicOnly</b></div><div>Its crazy how little people think on here lol
I have seen some awful trades for some teams, and I try to point it out, and Im called some awful stuff for pointing out that "the flames dont need ANOTHER LW" or "The leafs don't have space for that player", etc...</div></div>

It's nutso sometimes. Admittedly it's easier for us to criticize than to create our own. Someone is always going to go nuts on the value you project in a trade, but at the very least I try to make sure it's financially feasible for the other team or I'm not sending something they have an abundance of. The Pens have five lefty dmen under contract, yet people here keep trading us more of them and if you point it out they'll just say, "well this guy is better than what you have, so they'll find a way to make it work" and I try to state that it doesn't matter, but they'll just make some whacky arguments.

Thread: Hertl final offer
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>yikes</b></div><div>Won’t get Hertl.

Only Boston is high on Debrusk and Beecher had a rough 2020 and isn’t good.

Much better offers out there and SJS legit doesn’t need a winger in Debrusk.

I’m general for everything else;
Boston won’t be able to beat any offers for Hertl.</div></div>

Fans and front offices have different views. Fans are short sighted, recency bias and sentimental thinkers. Front offices are none of that.

Debrusk and Beecher were both playing though injuries to start the year and both ended up getting Covid, which Beecher was shut down for.

Go luck at Debrusk’s career numbers and 82 game averages compared to Labanc. Debrusks are better and SJ fans think Labanc is worth a 1st +.

I would not swap Beecher 1 for 1 for any SJ prospect after Eklund. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Other teams can make better offer, every team always can, even the least talented. Will they is the bigger question. Most won’t be in position to make an offer which makes it irrelevant if they can.

In the end they will get a few offers and take the best or the one that best suits them. The idea that any team does not have the ability/pieces to trade for anyone is laughable. Again…a fan thing. But fans aren’t rational.

Thread: What Boston did wrong if you didnt see the mock draft find it
Congrats, you are the millionth person to redo the 2015 draft. :applaud

And this is just bad anyway, this team is worse than the current edition other than C2 an LD1 which you obviously improved. While the bottom 6 is bad by AHL standards.

Went from a team with 5 high end players and a solid surrounding cast to 7 high end players that is very shallow..

Then there is the cap, which is cap tight with a 20 man roster.

The only thing they truly did wrong was draft Senyshyn. The rest of the picks while not popular or best on the board by any means were still defensible at the time considering team needs, desire, and not significant reaches. Draft is a crapshoot. Some players pan out some don’t. Hindsight is easy.

And that does not even begin to touch the butterfly affect of how everything gets altered after that. You alter the standings and pics for every team after 2015. Maybe Mac is taken before Boston picks next year because of altered rosters, standings, needs. And that is just one instance.
