Weave

Man, I love twitter. It’s just a news feed for me, and predominately a sports news feed.

The Tank.

Jack is traded on draft day. Risto traded on expansion draft day. Sam is 50/50 to return.

Wallstedt, WI or Wallstedt, GER? Wallstedt, WI or Wallstedt, GER?

Thats just it, the variance is huge. And it passes the eye test. So many ways to build a contender. I’ll stop there.

The biggest takeaway for me was, for all of the bluster that is expended regarding this prospect or that prospect, in the big picture they are statistically interchangeable. And it looks like GMTMs draft strategy was definitely in line with the strong link concept. He swung for the fences.

We should totally sign Taylor Hall.

Not gonna lie. I Googled Chicoutimi to see if the team name was really the Chicklets. Noice.

A center for now, a center for later, and a couple of guys that have played deep into the playoffs several times? Yes please.

Consolidation is generally not good for the consumer. I'm sure it's great for the owners of The Athletic though. I expect that selling was the business model all along.

Short version for us cheapskates?

I said the same. My son replied, “don’t assume it wasn’t accidentally self inflicted.” He’s not wrong. What a tragedy. Fireworks are often not given the respect they should.

We hit Chautauqua in 2 weeks. Always the highlight of my Summer.

The metric system is pretty widely used in manufacturing in the US. Product of a global economy. Its the day to day use that people are resistant to.

Casey Moittlestadt still can't do a pull up..

"Just a gut feeling regarding Jack and the atmosphere."

If I could choose between the two and the one that remained was happy and committed, I’d choose Sam. Just a gut feeling regarding Jack and the atmosphere.

**** right off. #notatallserious

Everyone LOVED his NFG approach right up until the team continued to suck. At the draft his approavh was cheered on. Now suddenly it was embarrassing. Noone expressed embarrassment at the time. Revisionist history.

Radar had that scolding coming. PA, or anyone else here, doesn’t need to be told what to post and what tone to take.

Given KAs comments that the team is still dead set against surgery, it can only mean trade in my opinion.

WTF cares if the media talks about Boston or NY stealing Jack? So much insecurity. The one and only thing that matters is that the return is maximized. If it takes a trade to Boston, Toronto, Montreal so be it.

Lemieux was never playing a game here. Does Armia become a good bottom 6 player on a team with no centers? Does he become a disappointing top 6 winger that isn't putting up numbers like his ceiling suggested? We didn't give up anything consequential in the grand scheme.

Today I learned a new word.

Given what was moved to get Kane and Bogo, I don’t expect the team’s fortunes would have been any different than what they are today.
