I'll save my judgment for when they add that high-end free agent instead of losing them.
Where does Gaudreau fit into this, along with the CBJ hitting the cap floor? Severson/Monahan signings? Thanks in advance.

Laine sucks. He was arguably the main culprit that helped ruin the CBJ team and made them literally unwatchable.

Along with Elvis and Jarmo, the guy who brought both guys in and then unbelievably signed them to ridiculous extensions.

I led with it, you corrected and concentrated on it. I’ve since clarified my meaning—a meaning you’ve claimed you understand.

In the post you quoted I have asked you to explain why you think a 14.6% difference in percentage constitutes the qualifier “easily”. No answer.

Would you care to answer any of my other questions? Ffs, guy, I’m attempting an actual debate with you. So debate.
I save my debates for things that are debatable.

14.6% being easily a big difference isn't debatable.

Optimism isn't a bad thing to have, maybe now without Laine or Kekäläinen poisoning the well they'll make big free agent signings next summer and spend close to the cap going forward as their prospects keep entering their prime. Maybe.

Laine with dumbass answers to media. He should shut the hell up and enjoy all that money CBJ (and Jets) gave him. Be appreciative instead of a dickhead.

I've said it many times, Laine is just like Hulk Hogan. People enjoy the bodyslam, big boot and legdrop (wristshot, slapshot and powerplay) But when he pulls the "that doesn't work for me brother!" (speaks his mind) everybody freaks out...

Ah, okay. So, now’s that we’ve establish an ironclad truth, can you answer a question regarding said ironclad truth? At what point does a percentage change in percentage switch from “more” to “easily more”:

1%
2%
3%
4%
5%
6%
7%
8%
9%
10%
11%
12%
13%
14%
14.5%
14.6154% (maybe Laine just barely hit the threshold)

Feel free to choose a number in between that I didn’t list (e.g. 11.4%, 7.8%), or even less than 1%. For all I know you consider 0.1% to be “easily.”

And BTW, you are conflating percentage change in percentage with accuracy—a stance you’ve taken based on my improper diction, of all things.

He's got Hulk Hogan's hairline too. Should just grow the mustache and start calling everybody "brother".

Instead of toning himself down, might as well go all-in.

The juxtaposition of this post and your user name is just 👌

Incomprehensible word salad...
I knew you’d avoid answering the question. Once again:

But today was a great reminder why he came so cheap in a trade: Guy showed poor attitude shitting on his former team, gave them huge motivation and is soft when it comes to showing up in intense games.

He was a monster in the 2016 Finnish Liiga finals and won playoffs MVP.
