  1. He probably just laughs and laughs about all of us, if he ever gets wind of it even at all. In seriousness, none of this actually matters because the 💲goes up up up. It’s beyond sports, it’s just how the world works Pat probably did too I guess Seems like ages ago. It was such an Occam’s razor, clear sign in retrospect that he just bailed. People that don’t obsess over this stuff like we are destined to forever are just like “ok, I’m out” because they realize the absurdity of what we are doing here so quickly
  2. It’s absolutely a good trade. By the only metric Adams cares about: value within a vacuum. We come out ahead here. It’s a good trade by value comparison. Much more saliently: It’s also a mark of poor performance from the GM, assuming we don’t make other moves: as it’s insufficient in addressing needs. But the trade itself is a good one. We are the victors! We won this trade.
  3. And not make 10 picks every year Another “won” trade. In seriousness: we won it. This is the type of trade KA is willing to make: trades where he wins in a vacuum
  4. “We got him?! …we got Eric Robinson?!!”
  5. I know this is a joke but in 101% seriousness we absolutely, positively, should not draft a player with our first. Imagine thinking ANOTHER 18 year old kid is what we need to fix this mess. We have a surplus, and drastic imbalance overall. Trade it.
  6. Legit thought there might be a place in Buffalo I didn’t know about lmao
  7. It’s all perception. These last 13 years of historic ineptitude: Darkness took me. And I strayed out of thought and time. Stars wheeled overhead, and every day was as long as a life age of the earth.
  8. Ahhhhhhhh you think darkness is your ally? You and your Jets merely adopted the dark. As a Sabres fan I was born into it…moulded by it.
  9. Place? I thought flats were a type
  10. Rebuild relitigation game tonight: we win, our rebuild is better. Dems the rules. Go Sabres
  11. I just want Ohtani. Everything sports will have been worth it if we (Jays) somehow find a way to get Ohtani. Which seems at least possible now when I would have called it unthinkable
  12. I honestly do not think they are very good. Isn’t Girgensons someone we should have moved on from in the offseason? From all my years of hockey my sense is if you are down a Girgensons and a Greenway (and a Tuch) you should consider yourself par for the course on the expected injury front. We were luckier last year, a little more unlucky this year..it’s all around the norm. If your strategy to make the playoffs is to hope for luck in this area and you don’t have the depth to overcome a more likely injury result, your strategy stinks. Teams get injuries.
  13. Leafs fans enjoy cereal with water instead of milk
  14. I feel like we have an assembly line of players where the expectation is “don’t embarrass yourself”
  15. I already said I disagree with your other nonsense, it’s just not worth arguing about because we see it very differently. I see a historic run of futility as worthy of a historic level of angst. Seems about right. I don’t share all of it but a lot of it I do. I get you disagree, that’s fine. Not dying on a hill: But dude you jumped in and said “Kids, stop”. Come on now “Kids” is condescension and it’s worthy of a call out because you were objectively mistaken im sorry I WAS right? I’m sorry you felt seen? Whichever lol. I digress
  16. So they actually are decentralizing? Do we expect this to result in even less movement? Being at the sphere will be cool though Haha
  17. That’s fine. But I’m still right about the thread Thumbs down. I guess I am not right haha
  18. Arizona of all teams finding a way to be pretty good is sort of the final straw in a sense. Get it together already, yeesh (sorry for multiple quotes board went screwy)
  19. There isn’t a single response after the OP that considers it likely. You’ve ironically jumped to an inaccurate conclusion There’s no fever pitch, there’s just the expected result of being a disappointing hockey team again
