Thread: You never ask a player to waive until you know you have a trade ready
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sensonfire</b></div><div>1. A homer is someone who is a fan of a particular team and thinks, "my players are way better than your players".

I see homers all the time on this site, including from my own fanbase.

When BCarlo said, "lindholm is in a different conversation in terms of what kind of player he is", that was a red flag.



2. Boston's true need is more or less winning the Stanley Cup.

Everything else is secondary.</div></div>


Considering I believe he’s comparing TDL Lindholm to TDL Hanifin, he’d be right tbh, Lindholm (when healthy) is a much better defender then Hanifin, he’s not wrong when he states that Lindholm is in a different conversation then Hanifin tbh, I’m a Vegas fan and I don’t agree with Boston fans often, but he’s correct in my eyes

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sensonfire</b></div><div>1. So, there is truth to that.

Good.

If the Bruins managed to get Hanifin in 2015, they would have got an elite two-way defenseman instead of needing to watch Zboril turn into the highest picked bust of the 2015 draft.

But that's water under the bridge ...



2. I am really just comparing apples to apples. Lindholm is a better comp for Hanifin than Orlov.

Calgary can have Forbort instead of Grzelcyk, but I could care less.

And why does Hanifin deserve a Lindholm-like package ?

Because Hanifin will sign an 8 year extension, he's of the same calibre, he was drafted about as high as Lindholm and he produces way more offensively on a weaker team.

That's why.



3. If Hanifin is moved to Boston, he'll became your new favourite toy.

And you'll become a way bigger homer over Hanifin than you are right now.</div></div>



I’ve just quietly been around CF for a bit, but question? Why do you keep calling people homers? Especially BCarlo, that dude knows what he’s talking about. I agree with him here, while Hanifin is good yes, Hampus Lindholm was far more better then Hanifin from when he was dealt to now Hanifin,

Bostons true need is more less stay back and develop young players, not trade away the young guys.

Thread: 2023-2024 NHL Discussion Thread #3: After Further Review...
I guess I’ll toss my two cents into this

What Grieg did was objectively not the classiest move and well that’s a lesson learned looking at it for him now

However. Reilly 100% intentionally crossed checked him in the face. Can’t even say his stick went up his shoulders. He didn’t touch them at all. That’s a chicken move and does not have a place in hockey, if you’re actively defending Reilly here, idk man, the excuse of “oh look at back then” is over. It’s a newer, safer era of hockey. Accept it. Saying that’s embellishing is craaaazy

Reilly in my eyes should get 2 but if he gets more it’s his fault. You can’t do that, not now. Two key games to stay alive in the east coming up in Philadelphia and St Louis. Who are good or red hot rn. Reilly also learned a lesson. And will be learning a lesson on how to control a stick

Thread: (NYR/MIN) - Reaves for 2025 5th
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sensonfire</b></div><div>The Rangers spent a 3rd round pick in 2022 on Ryan Reaves for one purpose and one purpose only:

To protect the team from Tom Wilson.

According to hockeyfights.com, Reaves never fought Wilson when he was with the Rangers.

The Rangers now trade Reaves to the Wild for a 5th round pick in 2025.



This is horrible asset management by the Rangers.



The Minnesota Wild win the trade.</div></div>



Reaves never had to fight Wilson at all, Reaves presence there would’ve probably been enough to scare Wilson off, now with Wilson out, and the Rangers have some big bodies on the way, plus younger guys, wasn’t needed

Also BG wanted his Nic Deslauries replacement, and he gets it, while Rangers save cash, regardless of the draft picks dealt in Reaves trades, both teams win

Thread: (VGK/CAR) - Pacioretty, Coghlan for future considerations
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Stones6160</b></div><div>I don’t know what I just saw, but whatever it is

As a Vegas fan

Kelly McCrimmon and the ENTIRE Vegas organization (outside of the coaching staff) deserve to be fired out of a cannon, this is absolutely pathetic, all for Reilly Smith and Brett Howden

I hope to lord this team misses the playoffs. I can’t ask for anything more, just please miss, it’ll be the best thing for the future of this team if they want to STAY in Vegas</div></div>


They could be considered more of a trainwreck then the Washington Commanders right now, I hope this gamblers mentality of “this time THIS TIME IT’LL WORK” is banished to never be seen again

Congratulations to every canes fan for free players (and my soul)
