Gawdzukes Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 10 minutes ago, Huggy Bear said: I’d love to see a trade like this before the 11th. Let’s go Allvin…put down the shammy and pick up the phone! @Alflives am I doing this right? This would be really cool but it would also be awesome to have a guy like McWard step up. I've always been jealous of other teams when you see young players step in and hold down a role. Especially on defence. It's so huge for a team when you can have a young kid step in at $800,000 or whatever and boom 18% of your defence is taken care of as compared to spending say $6 million on a Myers or Schmidt. Of course that's hard when you trade away all your second round picks and only draft RD once a decade or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gets two games, plays pretty well, then had a very productive AHL campaign and only one more NHL game (where he had a point).

Geez, I like the BC boy aspect but look at the plus/minus and compare to rest of his team? Like do some research, if you can show he was not the 5th worst player on the d-line that would help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said “looks like an offensive Dman, but decent size and BC boy. “ Where you are wrong is thinking we need more offensive Dmen. What we actually need is the Juggernaut defense who can hit 20 times per game like Luke Schenn did. We have too many offensive Dmen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tusk Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 I would rather we grab another Kuzmenko than someone off waivers. We have let some great guys go on Waivers because they were not as great as someone like Kuzy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tusk Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 The best dmen are the ones who get very few goals and assists but do thier friggin jobs and are over +50 ON plus minus stat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tusk Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 Hey Ted Lasso I have debated with you before just saw your cdc name.... lol Huggy Bear is pretty good. But I am hoping this is not a captain selection but a good Defense name. My point is the reason why OEL and Myers could never claim their fame because they were never paired with a stay home guy, and instead they had to struggle to defend the 2 or 3 on ones the other way. Or the 3 on 2 with a forward. cd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah we spoke and usually I was defending Myers. sometimes OEL because I didnt like the cap repercussions. I dont get involved as much as you do but I do like your point of view even when, or especially when I dont agree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AND no this was not a misunderstanding we dont need Coghlan unless we are giving up Wolanan, Woo and Juulsen to Jersey for Luke Hughes. I will agree to anything else you want.
