You could do things the right way and hope for a 5% chance is goes well and then and 80% chance you suck for years and then a 15% you're the Oilers who knock on the door but ultimately are no better than the Rangers (of previous years). Or you could be respectable franchise even if ultimately you have a ceiling. Give me respectable franchise over the Sharks or Sabres garbage. I have a different opinion in football because really all it takes is a QB there and tanking a season is unwatchable for 17 games, not 82. But in hockey, sorry I don't want to watch this garbage or the garbage in upstate NY. Or the garbage in Anaheim. Detroit and Ottawa finally look like mediocre teams that are still not as good as the Rangers were the last three seasons after years of garbage. The teams that actually do it right, do it right because of luck mostly.
You serious Clark? KAM puts it right on the kids stick in the high slot. No time to react just had to hope it hit him.OMG, this board has a hard on for goalies. I just saw the goal by the Sharks. Quick was just as much of a problem on that goal as Mika and Miller. That was an absolute stinker. But goalies are beyond reproach I guess.
Who?We have the luxury to sign multiple in the next couple of seasons, if we choose to do so.
Marner this season, even though I don’t want him. Eichel and McDavid aren’t completely out of the realm of possibility in 2026.Who?
Free agency sucks the next couple of years.
Marner isn't a franchise forward. I'm not convinced Eichel at age 30 is either.Mc

If the Oil shit the bed two more times, he’d be psychotic to stay there.Marner isn't a franchise forward. I'm not convinced Eichel at age 30 is either.
There's no way McDavid makes it to UFA.
Ad....f***, nevermind,you got me thereThe Sharks have a franchise forward
It's honestly sad if they get in
As opposed to what, coming here to a team that's literally worse at everything? (except goaltending)If the Oil shit the bed two more times, he’d be psychotic to stay there.

Thing is, the most skilled hockey player of all time playing in NYC has the potential to make more in endorsements in 1 season than he has in his whole career combined in EDM.As opposed to what, coming here to a team that's literally worse at everything? (except goaltending)
Yeah, but he'd be leaving one of the best contenders in the NHL to come to a shithole. Dysfunctional Edmonton is a meme that went moldy a couple of years ago. They're an excellent team and he'd be leaving the best teammate he's ever gonna play with.Thing is, the most skilled hockey player of all time playing in NYC has the potential to make more in endorsements in 1 season than he has in his whole career combined in EDM.
Lafreniere-McDavid-CuylleYeah, but he'd be leaving one of the best contenders in the NHL to come to a shithole. Dysfunctional Edmonton is a meme that went moldy a couple of years ago. They're an excellent team and he'd be leaving the best teammate he's ever gonna play with.
I always hear that we can just get who we want but the names just aren't out there to build through free agency. 2027 looks like shit too.
Also, it doesn't work. We've been buying players to fill holes instead of just drafting franchise players for 50 years.
It's a pipe dream.Lafreniere-McDavid-Cuylle
Miller-Eichel-Perreault
Sykora-Trocheck-Othmann
Berard-Carrick-Rempe

Call it a pipe dream, but that's a contending team. Especially since you can also easily upgrade guys like Sykora/Berard/Robertson through FA.

Celebrini is like 16 years old and he's already close to a PPG player.Marner is not a franchise forward and Eichel isn't at 30 but you know for a fact that good but not elite rookie Celebrini is a franchise forward? Not your best work.
Life's too short for hate...Celebrate the big win over the worst hockey team in the universe!!!Why do you people have to defend shit sundae franchise after they win one game?
Let me hate my life.
Celebrini is like 16 years old and he's already close to a PPG player.
He won't be 30 until 2037 and he won't be a UFA until 2032.
Age is a thing and you should know that because we both have lower back pain.
Not your best work.
And what if all they get with their high picks is another Laf and Kakko?Respectable. Every year the same shit, but respectable. Cool. Meanwhile, the Sharks will pick 3 players to include the 1OA before the Rangers get to pick once. I think the Sharks are doing it right. That's just me.
