Speculation: Trade Deadline

[gertbfrobe16]

Also, "the freak who couldn't stop scoring in his rookie season". No, we're seeing the one that put up 65 points last season and is having a down year.

is anyone on the team, that was on it last year, having a better year this year?

 

[ajw12]

How'd he look in the playoff series last year, in your opinion. Down series?

6 game series, great sample size.

 

[Tripod]

Ghost's defenders cite, as his #1 irreplaceable skill, his ability in running the PP.

I happen to have evidence that the PP he runs stinks.

Nobody would cite Giroux's PP presence as his top asset.

Now that's impressive. Three lines, and they are all wrong.

1. Nope, it runs thru Giroux

2. Nope, he doesn't run it

3. I guess you ignore than many of the same people spewing garbage about Ghost only being a PP guy, are the same ones saying the same thing about Giroux when he was playing thru injuries.

 

[Tripod]

Emotional response again. I'm merely responding to flyers0909 and others who say he's irreplaceable on the PP. You've just done the same, in a different way.

You can't investigate trading this player on this forum. Too many "Authentic Fans", I guess.

Until another Dman shows he can be an elite PP guy, he IS irriplacable. But some people choose to only look at this year instead of his entire work.

You are doing the same.

And you guys know better. You are better than this. Yet here you are.

Snark works better when you proofread, chief.

Emotional.

This is all hilariously similar to what some people were saying about GIroux two years ago.

 

[Ghosts Beer]

The real Ghost is the ~40 game sample size, not the 200+ game one. What a joke.

Gostisbehere had a subpar sophomore season, also. It's disingenuous to act like this is his first down season.

 

[Tripod]

Snark works better when you proofread, chief.

Emotional.

Sorry teach...will fix it.

Yet what I said in that mumbo jumbo made more sense than your arguments.

Lol.

Two very good seasons, one ok season and one bad season.

Good grief.

Giroux is a hall of famer and will probably retire as either the second or third greatest Flyer in the history of the franchise.

Ghost scored 65 points once before going -8 in a one-and-done.

It's amazing how similar it is yet they can't see it.

 

[Striiker]

I'm glad the haters are being exposed in here.

Nothing we can say could ever embarrass him more than what he's saying himself. All credibility is gone.

 

[ajw12]

Good grief.

Giroux is a hall of famer and will probably retire as either the second or third greatest Flyer in the history of the franchise.

Ghost scored 65 points once before going -8 in a one-and-done.

And giroux was -10. What’s your point?

 

[Striiker]

It's amazing how similar it is yet they can't see it.

And actually it's even worse because Ghost is only 25

 

[Tripod]

Lol....there it is...+\- argument is now being used.

 

[Striiker]

+/-

 

[Delete99991]

And giroux was -10. What’s your point?

Giroux is nearly PPG in the playoffs in his career and is a plus player.

Ghost not only stunk statistically last year, but looked absolutely terrible. Boy among men. Which has been the knock on him when the going gets tough since season 2.

 

[Delete99991]

Lol....there it is...+\- argument is now being used.

You think he had a good series? Didn't look overwhelmed?

 

[Delete99991]

You think he had a good series? Didn't look overwhelmed?

Uh huh. The Tripodbot has malfunctioned when asked to engage in actual conversation.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

When does this thread go back to the Trade Deadline discussion?

 

[flyers0909]

Good grief.

Giroux is a hall of famer and will probably retire as either the second or third greatest Flyer in the history of the franchise.

Ghost scored 65 points once before going -8 in a one-and-done.

Giroux was -10...Trade em all.

 

[Tripod]

You think he had a good series? Didn't look overwhelmed?

I think the only person who did NOT look overwhelmed, is Couturier.

But I also know we have a Dman that has finished #17 and #10 in Norris voting the last 3 years. And it's not Provy. Not Sanheim. Not Gudas.

I simply am not one to over react to this 40ish games. We should be looking to ADD to the top guys we have, not simply swap them out just for change.

 

[ajw12]

When Ghost inevitably bounces back and these dudes go back read their posts...

 

[Tripod]

Snark and emotion. Stock in trade of this poster and his sycophants.

Well this conversation is like talking to the Three Stooges, who no doubt are a mere few months removed from stroking it to an image of Hexy thumbing through his "plan."

I can't wait until the deadline, when the Ghost rumours kick up in earnest.

Hypocrite.
