Speaking of poster PB…

I wonder how long his ignore list is. The guy blocked anyone that disagreed with him to the point where I don’t know why he bothered using the internet.

He blocked me for telling him he was dumb for saying Sergey Zborovskiy would be a better player than Brady Skjei.

I think he took people off. He used to never respond to me on the prospect board and I figured he blocked me. Then he started responding to me again.

Speaking of posters what happened to @Amazing Kreiderman?

All of these are reasonable even if somewhat marginally conservative estimates. Did he say anything about Miller or Kreider?


Sure about it - seems too high

Kreider and Zibanejad were mentioned only at the beginning of the article but kind of in passing, acknowledging that they might be moved but Drury will have to decide what he wants to do.

Do you guys remember when Ryan Spooner was scoring like crazy when he was traded to us? Why do people fall for these small sample sizes especially after trades when players are extra motivated? Honest to God, if Kakko was drafted in the second round this wouldn't be anywhere near a big deal. A 3rd liner for an upgrade on D and two picks sounds fair to me.

But if I am not mistaken most of us see that regardless of draft position, he still has signif upside
hence not getting enuf was a bad deal
plus we are all still waiting for actual deadwood to be moved

Are we allowed to say people are on the ignore list? I forget if that's a rule. Let's just say I don't read anything Jovo or Bern post.

you are entitled to that
it is also your loss
peeps -- any poster here ---who generally demonstrate preference to not show courtesy to bother to read an OP -- any poster here --- may be viewed as close minded
that look is something to consider

We just gonna' pretend that he didn't play only 54 games in that season, pace for 55 the previous season, or or pace above .5 in every season but his first where he played 41 games and had 20 points?

The difference is Buchnevich skated and was better.

I see the stat comparison was already addressed. It wasn't happening here with Kakko. Fans need to get over it. You could have put him on the 1st line every game and it wasn't happening.

I don’t think it really matters as evidenced by most people being exhausted by this topic so I’ll just say this- people can agree or disagree with me. I’m not trying to say Buch wasn’t showing signs of taking a step or that I didn’t like him as a player. I love Buch and hated that trade. I’m merely saying that I generally view the following to be similar: 1) invest similar in development of player, 2) player still has untapped potential, 3) trade player for less than perceived untapped potential.

Obviously the players are different and they have different career arcs, they’re different stylistically and the trades were for different reasons and under different circumstances. I just think from an asset management standpoint, it’s fair to compare the trades.
 
The second UT goal tonight was caused by Zib ineffective checking in front of the net = FAIL
eye test does not lie

Lav stupidly replaced tro w/Zib for 1:14 2 man adv PP
Zib completely effed up
it is too much to bear

in contrast, Kreider was instrumental on Kaliyev's goal

the lack of gratitude by some here for CK is sickening
it reminds me of George Orwell's Animal Farm, w/Napoleon ? selling the heroic Ajax ? to the glue factory

CK is a thoroughbred who should not have to get beat up each and every PP, but no one else can handle it, apparently
now that years of that has led to back spasms or whatev it is,
some want to give this guy -- who does not deserve it -- the bum's rush
SICKENING

This board is unbearable with the Kakko whinning. If you want to complain about Drury don't complain about the third liner, complain about signing one of the worst goalies in the NHL to 11.5 million dollars.

NO, wrong imo
we did not sell high on Igor prior so it was either deal him now and get less for less term,
or extend with at least potential ability to deal w/term

There is no excuse for discounted KK trade = giveaway = bad deal
 
just saw UT go-ahead 3rd goal which I had missed
Guess who whiffed and waived while Logan Cooley potted it?
Zib

Meanwhile, while this team needs energy in the wors way, Rempe sits/has reduced mins

Zib should SIT
make him effen learn and waive
accept growing pains play youth

zib again sucked ass around 10 mins left
shortly after Kreider scores [gwg]

also note Edstrom also underutilized
