Has Boomer confirmed he frequents HF Boards? People should hammer him with that question
 
but GMs do absolutely cross each other like that. Remember the Lindros fiasco?

This is true! Still, I dont know StevieY wants to tangle with Sather, and have Callahan and St Louis involved. Not enough upside. Anything's possible though.

Still not 100%, but pretty sure I saw video the other day of some NFLer who knocked his GF unconscious, then dragged her prone body from an elevator. And apparently, they're still going to let him play!

So nothing shocks me anymore.
 
Let's say for the sake of argument that this Callahan for MSL goes down, what do you think the odds are that we might be able to pry Andrew Ladd from the Jets?
 
Boomer said no to Nash. It's Cally for MSL. La la la la la la lock it up. (hopefully). It seems exceedingly likely Cally is leaving though.
 
That's how you see it.

As far as some of us are concerned, trying to crack the code, even if it is all ********, has been fun.

I'm sorry it is really stressful and making you upset though. :(

Discussing rumors and "cracking the code" is not what Im talking about.

Im talking about the posters (and theres only a couple) that present themselves as one of the main sources of the rumor. "I broke this a while ago..." Its self serving for virtually no reason and, quite frankly, pathetic.
 
Yeah maybe don't speak for me, ok? I didn't post the rumors. Just putting pieces together. High and mighty...


Funny though, boomer said some fans wouldn't like the deal.

High and mighty? Wasn't directed at you, self conscious one.

He did say that, he didn't say the deal would make absolutely no sense though.
 
I don't get why people are getting snippy with each other now, this is a ton of fun and it's basically exactly what these boards are for.

Get snippy when it's Erat.

In that case, I apologize.

Good question. I read a big article on Ladd yesterday. The thing that surprised me a bit was him saying how he really prefers to concentrate on defense, and how it makes his offense better.
Man, that'd make this one dynamic group of forwards.
I thought Ladd was maybe their top forward target before BoomerMania LOL.

So, the odds they CAN pry him? Quite good I'd say, especially if futures are what WPG wants (in part). We've got a lot more chips than some realize. What Id wonder is how much turnover do they want these last 20 games?; is there the stomach for it?
But boy that'd make things interesting...

You quoted a post directed to me. If you weren't talking to me, your intended target is still in the dark.

How does it "make absolutely no sense?". If they feel Nash is not living up to his contract, they move him for less money and less term and get a bigger point producer. Maybe he fits the system better. TB could view Nash as the bigger asset being that he is signed longer and they don't attract too many FAs as it is. Plus, marty asked for a trade. Boomer indicated TB was adding to the deal, making cally highly unlikely.

Now maybe it isn't a great move, maybe it isn't the rumor. But "makes absolutely no sense" is kind of strong. Off base?

It must be a deadline time. Condescending is in the forecast.

#1 way to tank a successful franchise. Lol.

I agree that a Nash / MSL trade makes more sense to me anyway.. But he did tweet at some point it was Callahan on the Rangers side.. Also that Nash wasn't involved...

Now one could speculate there are two separate deals in place, and for the sake of saving his sources confidentiality, has thrown out a few curve balls to keep the fire down until it gets out of control.. Possibly a Nash for MSL, and Callahan for?
