Is telling people they’re upset when they aren’t how you think you win a discussion? You’ve literally said that to me 3 or 4 times. Not very effective.

You’re fine to have your opinion, even if it’s wrong. Just don’t expect me not to call you on it. A 60 point once centre never plays centre over a ppg centre at any capacity no matter what type of cute little dress you want to put on it.
Again, why is it about “winning” a discussion with you? How does someone “win” anything that has to do with opinions? I’m happy to hear details about why Tavares would be the 2C, though I’m not satisfied with the only reason so far being his previous 12 years. Do those years matter? Absolutely, are they the only thing that matters? Of course not. But rather than bring anything to the conversation you’re content on just telling people their wrong and that they’re not “winning” when they’re not trying to win. But I guess that’s not what someone that is upset would do.

Maybe 13 years is enough of a sample size for you. I guess we’ll have to revisit next year. 12 doesn’t do it. But the 10 games this year has proved pld is > Tavares, because Dache logic.

I’ve already said career wise Tavares is clearly way ahead. And again I never said PLD > tavares. I’ve also said that’s the only point anyone has made for him and I’m not putting as much stock in what someone did 5 or 10 years ago when the other guy wasn’t even in the league when assessing who I’d pick right now. Once again you’re ignoring everything I’m saying and just repeating the one point over and over in your attempt to “win”

Totally. You’re not picking pld over Tavares, you’re just playing him at centre over Tavares. Seems legit.

Why are you refusing to actually read what I’m writing? I’ve said several times I would pick PLD as the jets 2C. What I have not said is that it’s because PLD > Tavares. I think currently PLD = Tavares. Career wise Tavares >>> PLD. I’ve been very clear about this so I’m not sure what the issue is. I’ve noticed this several times in your rants against my opinions.

I understand what you’re saying, I’m pointing out it makes no sense. You know that and won’t back track on it, so keep repeating the same things and will continue to argue with me as long as I keep posting to get the last word. Somehow this will also be my fault.

Probably slots in a bottom 6 role on the Wild. We’re deep down the middle with Freddy Gaudreau

When have I argued with you? You keep telling me what I’ve said but I’ve never said any of those things. I have nothing to back track about. Im done with this. You’re clearly trying to derail a thread yet again.

Then you’re not reading my posts. I said my reasoning at least twice. I’m not getting into another thread derail with you.

Tavares hasn't recorded a hit in 3 years and he is expected to be a top 6 center on a team that gets a good share of it's offense via the cycle?

He can play 3C for the Jets and be content being a passenger taking home twice what he's worth.
And he’s better at that then anyone on your team…..
that and net front is his bread and butter
You have not seen this guy cycle and it
shows with this post.

Voted 2C, but it could be 1C - just depends how you view ROR.

I think Tavares and ROR would basically be 1A and 1B, with Tavares used more in offensive situations and ROR taking the tougher defensive assignments.

He’d be the most talented but likely the Wings second simply because Larkin has shown insane chemistry with Bertuzzi and Raymond. He’s better than Larkin, but I think it’d just work out better if he was centering Fabbri/Zadina/Vrana when he comes back

Honestly, on some nights could be the 4c behind RNH. RNH looks very good right now

Because he doesn’t have one. Other than Tavares is declining somehow and chemistry through 10 games this year. But omitting his dismal last season. It makes sense only if your goal was to not make any sense.

So I don’t have any, then you list 2? Does that mean you’re “winning”. Once again I’m not sure why you’re so obsessed with me and my opinions. If you really dislike them that much then have a real conversation or just ignore them
