2024-25 General Dallas Stars Talk

[M88K]

i keep forgetting that the line between smart and dumb is the same as perfection and incompetency

I would argue signing Suter and Dumba are prime examples of incompetency. They were bad moves from the moment the pen touched paper, everyone knew they were, except the guy that did it.

There's plenty of Nill moves that we could argue were also dumb moves, most of which would have a defendable justification for being made when he did it.

Suter and Dumba are just 100% undefendable moves, I don't care how big of a Nill homer someone is, there is 0 justification for such horrendous moves

Nobody likes the moves, but it just doesn’t give you the leg to stand on with this opinion that you think it does. Nill is one of the most highly regarded executives in the league, full stop. He brought in Seguin for pennies on the dollar, signed elite free agents in Radulov and Duchene, built the staff around him that scouted Miro, Oettinger, Hintz, Robertson, Wyatt, Bourque, Harley, Stankoven, and Bichsel. We’ve been a contender for years now and will be contenders for the foreseeable future.

I could go on and on about Nill’s successes with this team. most people in the league have the opinion that Jim Nill is one of the very best, if not the best executive in the league and that Dallas does everything the right way. You however are the only one that seems to think he’s dumb and a garbage GM.


My old man told me once that if you think the whole world is full of shit, it’s probably you that’s full of shit.

Damn. You bitch more than I do and that's saying something.

M88K's issue is even when Nill does something good he still finds a way to shit on him.

Annoying after a while.

Grasping at straws at this point.

You can't justify the negativity to us. I'm not even sure you can justify it to yourself anymore.

Suter wasn't terrible and his cap hit wasn't bad. Term was alittle too long, but that helped lower the cap. Problem was when his ice time was too high, he struggled. When his ice time was lowered he wasn't that bad.
