The awesome thing about Lehner for a 1 is that it was the first example of Harrington blaming moves he didn’t like on analytics. As if any analytics person would have advocated trading that 1 for an unproven goalie. Or any goalie that wasn’t like…one of four or five guys in the league. Let us know early that he would blame analytics for anything that was bad. A pattern he continues to this day.

He gets paid to write about hockey. Isn’t it amazing? Never seen someone as uninterested in learning about what he covers than him. Does no prospect work. Gloats about not following the Amerks. Understand nothing about the game. And he isn’t even a decent writer. For as much as Jerry Sullivan could be up his own ass…he was a fine writer. Harrington is shit.

Detroit doesn't seem like a good trade partner.

Both teams are trying to improve their rosters

Meh, his career save percentage is .917 over 12 seasons and he was pretty consistent (didn't really have a bad season). That is very good, and worth a 21st overall pick.

The problem is he was a head case (like other Murray trades). It's like Murray thought if you acquired enough locker room cancers they would cancel each other out.

Yes but at time of trade he hadn't done anything to warrant a 1st pick.

It was bad value at time of trade.

Like ROR trade... was a horrible return at time of trade...we just got lucky that Thompson developed into something

Legitimately made me upset to think about, particularly when job hunting, that he gets paid full time to write about this team, given the content he comes up with

Good hit by Foligno in that it was clean. But it also resulted in a 2 on 1 . Lucky it was Krebs with the puck.

Hardly say Foligno ran him. That's a great hit by a vet taking advantage of a rookie who was too high up and wasn't ready for it.


lmao come on dude not even close that's an awesome hit.
Too bad the puck was somewhere in Orchard Park when he threw it.
