No. You don't understand. You aren't explaining anything.Like I said, I’m gonna drop it. You don’t understand the concept, and you don’t care to understand what people are explaining

Have a majority opinion on HFF. Whatever the majority of a thread says that's the truth. Btw Jarnkrok is Zetterberg 2.0....Yeah? What's the magic formula for hockey?
Let's try this another way then.Have a majority opinion on HFF. Whatever the majority of a thread says that's the truth. Btw Jarnkrok is Zetterberg 2.0....

So the other 4 players and the goalie don't have anything to do with all these hypothetical goals all being Laine's fault to fit your narrative? LOL Umm k.Let's try this another way then.
Say Detroit trades for Laine.
And he scores 35 goals a year.
And he's also poor enough defensively to account for 15-20 goals against.
You're proposing that a net of 15-20 goals for is worth around $9M per season? Because that's the starting point to sign him long term. (And I'd hope that after parting with significant assets to land him, it's not just to let him walk in a year, or trade him for similar assets that were spent to get him here in the first place.)

Quick question: Do you think that when a goal is scored in a hockey game, equal blame should be spread across the G, LD, RD, C, LW, and RW every time?
No just on Patrick Laine.Quick question: Do you think that when a goal is scored in a hockey game, equal blame should be spread across the G, LD, RD, C, LW, and RW every time?
And AA*Being a goalie myself for when I play? Absolutely.
Being a logical, reasonable human being? Of course not.

Jets fan here...coming in peace.
Just noticed you were discussing our player.
A few comments;
Love Larkin but I don't see him wanting to leave Michigan at all.
The player I would ask for is Seider....he looks incredible.
Lucas Raymond is also very impressive...talk starts around Raymond/Seider.

There's nothing wrong with debating the degree (exactly how many goals for versus goals against a given player is responsible for). But do you at least acknowledge the concept that, if Laine does an amazing job scoring goals, but a lousy job at nearly everything else, that that's a factor in estimating his overall value versus the assets needed to acquire him and the contract likely required to retain him?No just on Patrick Laine.
Would you take Raymond, Joe Veleno, and a second round pick next year? Because if you can renegotiate Laine's contract first, at say 6 years at $8 million per year, then sign-and-trade him, I'd go for that.
Laine is already making $6,750,000 the odds of him signing for 6 years at $8 million is pretty slim i doubt he'd take anything less then 7 years at $9.5 million give or take.Would you take Raymond, Joe Veleno, and a second round pick next year?

No thanks Raymond isn't going anywhere after just drafting him. Especially not for a one dimensional RW like Laine.Would you take Raymond, Joe Veleno, and a second round pick next year? Because if you can renegotiate Laine's contract first, at say 6 years at $8 million per year, then sign-and-trade him, I'd go for that.
I wouldn't do this as a Wings fan. Of course we can't expect Raymond to be as good as Laine. But he's 4 years younger and while Laine is getting paid a big contract, Raymond will be on an ELC.Would you take Raymond, Joe Veleno, and a second round pick next year? Because if you can renegotiate Laine's contract first, at say 6 years at $8 million per year, then sign-and-trade him, I'd go for that.
There is no denying Laine's offensive talent, but he would not be a good fit for this team throughout the next years. The Red Wings do not need a top winger right now, because they will not be competing next season anyway, and they need a top C, D and G more than a winger. Laine will also command not only valuable assets for the trade, but a sizable salary, which is similar to upper-tier free agents like Hall. So here's hoping nothing happens in that direction.
