Thread: What IF Hubby Cost
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lenny7</b></div><div>Hello friend, welcome to Earth, a planet that doesn't revolve around one singular team, where you aren't limited to only receiving offers from one team. It's pretty simple-Why would a team sell off a star player if they weren't selling? (They wouldn't). If they were selling, why would a team trade their star player for a pending UFA, a good prospect, and a bottom 6 forward?

There are a ton of teams that would blow this offer out of the water if Huberdeau was put on the block.</div></div>

Just like Mike Hoffman - Huberdeau eats minutes and isn't nearly the player his stat-line reflects, similarly to Tatar tbh. The reality is that Romanov, who was the best defensemen in two consecutive world juniors, projects to be worth more than his weight in Gold on a rookie contract in a flat cap world. He ALONE is worth more than Huberdeau, let alone replacing almost all of Huberdeau's production with Tatar AND then adding a very serviceable NHLer in Lehknonen who is actually quite the possession beast but can't finish. I repeat, horrible trade.

People who think this is a fair offer must think Huberdeau would return Makar in a 1x1 - that is the equivalence of how ridiculously I view this offer.

Thread: Final Bergalicious Tweaks for THA CUP SON
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Habs4ever</b></div><div>Your assessment of Poehling is incredibly interesting. BTW's I know many NHL players that privately love Trump but publicly will not say anything for concern of backlash. But more to the topic, Ryan is an incredible young man from an amazing family. His mistake was similar to that of many others, leaving the CHL or NCAA and ending up in the NHL with grown men is an amazing eye opener for many. I am not implying Ryan will have an amazing career but it certainly will not be, because of his attitude. Everywhere he has been, people love his attitude.</div></div>

Let's jut put it this way. Would Crosby post a political statement on his twitter account? What exactly is the upside? WWCD (What Would Crosby Do) is a good litmus test. Again, I admittedly do not know the young man, have never spoken to him - but he is a professional athlete on arguably the highest profile team in the entire sport, in a liberal geography. It's a highly suspect decision. Also, see his quotes about the AHL vs NHL etc etc, and not even dressing for the playoffs. Let's be honest here.
