2021 Off-Season (Too Soon?)

The deal is fine... 1 year as a mentor... we need to avoid multiple years to old guys at this point. The NMC is peace of mind for him and he's earned that IMHO with his play last year. -

Mike Milbury is at it again
BigWillieStyle and one other reacted to F.Michael for a post in a topic
I'd pay good money to watch Milbury beat you with a shoe. -
1 pointI was really befuddled by the Buium pick... especially considering we traded up to take him. I was thinking Raty or another solid forward prospect still on the board. Even after a bit of research I still don't understand that pick.

If it were Holland it would have been a 2-3 year deal -

1 pointThe Ned trade was even more of a steal than Bishop. Bishop was given up on by St. Louis and didn't seem to be in Ottawa's long term plans. After the playoffs Nedeljkovic had, I thought for sure the starting spot was his to lose. Carolina had brought him along slowly since he was drafted, never pushed him too hard until they felt he was ready. They even protected him from Seattle. Everything pointed to Mrazek or Reimer leaving. The trade is such a shocking steal that I still can't see why Carolina would do it. They don't have anyone better in waiting.

1 pointI wouldn't have been against it if we needed him. But Yzerman pulled an Yzerman and traded Bernier for Nedeljkovic before he could leave on the 28th.

1 pointThought Yzerman wasn't taking a goalie in the first after he want for a Dman 6th. Then he trades up and takes Cossa 15th. Another great move outta nowhere to address the goaltending. Thank you Steve.

7/23 GDT - 2021 Entry Draft
Dabura reacted to Scott R Lucidi for a post in a topic
its ok! Im pretty sure we have covered topic twice in the past. -
1 pointIll be honest, I dont know much about his draft record in Tampa. As for this pick, I was just read Bob Mackenzie's rankings and he had Edvinsson 3rd, so its not like its some kind of reach. https://www.tsn.ca/bob-mckenzie-s-2021-final-draft-rankings-1.1669727 *edit* I didn't realize you guys already discussed this lol.

I don't enjoy Mike Milbury, but he's 100% right here. What he said ISN'T bad. You're naive if you claim otherwise. There's no way you can operate in this world and truly be offended by what he said. If you acted that way in your own day to day lives, you wouldn't last. No one would take you seriously. We all know what he meant by it. And hell, it's literally the damn truth! You all realize that, right? These athletes are, by in large, having an immense amount of interaction with women before, and after their games. There's literally nothing wrong with that. No one is saying there's anything wrong with that. He's bringing to light that in the bubble - that's all changed and by consequence, some of that time will now be focused on hockey. Since they're broadcasting a damn hockey game... anything that brings attention away from hockey, in this context, would be a distraction. And no emotionally intelligent woman would feel as if it was an insult. Because it's literally not. Right now, I'm distracting you from doing something productive with your time. And you ass clowns have distracted me from doing something productive with my time. The ass clown is the insult. A distraction is just describing the situation. It isn't inherently good or bad. The thing that sucks is, when we all turn the TV off - literally no one's lives were changed by what he said. NO ONES. But we get to rant online about being "offended" so we can all sit here and smell each other's altruistic farts. Then when we're bored with it, we literally move on with our days and no one gives it a thought because again, no one was effected by it. We get to leave it behind. Meanwhile, we've just upended a human beings livelihood. A livelihood that has effected not just him, but his entire families. And we have the luxury of not having to care about that. Convenient for us, isn't it? I guaran-*******-tee you, if you had to witness the actual emotions and feelings that a family had to endure when their lives are upended like this, you wouldn't be so quick to call for someone's head. You wouldn't have this false sense of accomplishment and pride for yourselves. You'd realize that s***....maybe this wasn't an equitable punishment. But no, we are all able to turn are heads away from that reality. They got their just desserts, let's move on to the next one. It's absolutely sickening and appalling that we've created a culture that can do so much damage with a clear conscious. And that's the most dangerous part of all. -
0 pointsFor my money, William Eklund is set to be the Elias Petterson of this draft.
