Come on Wildcard. No way we get Juolevi for Kane.

Where's the 'it's happening gif'? Your letting me down Liger....

What about the numbers Sam put up. Ducks.

I'll go with $50 Canadian if I lose. If I win you go $40 American? I think that's roughly equivalent? Or just go $50 Canadian if possible lol

I realize Tpegs has not been shy to pay ppl to not work for either organization to this point. But I'm sure every man will come to a moment where enough is enough. Maybe I'm still just too use to ownership of past who either went bankrupt or were too cheap. Especially this offseason who is in the running that needs a 5 year deal vs 3 to take the job? I would be shocked if boughner, tochet or housley would need that incentive. Who are we in competition with? Florida? I would think the job should be pretty attractive on its own. Hiring someone like Babcock? Sure I give him what he wants but were talking about all unproven guys right now. I guess I'm just afraid the well will run dry one day and I don't want it to be because we gave too many poor coaches long term contracts. I'm on my phone so I apologize for the atrocious spelling in this post.

Anaheim would be my guess.

Lmao

Ya I knew almost nothing about Boughner prior to a couple of days ago. After some research, I would be fine with him. But please TPegs, no more 5 year deals.

Fair enough. I could do a Charity bet. How much? Do we have to convert Canadian to American :P Maybe $50?

Avatar bet he goes after round 3?

Yes of course we are allowed to do that. I was responding to your point about not freaking out about losing Petersen because the draft is supposedly good for goaltending.

Less than 2.5 more hours.....

I think 95 percent chance he's gone. If Vegas takes ullmark then odds would increase substantially he signs with us. If we lose ullmark and Petersen in one offseason....not good. Not good at all.

Goalies take forever to develop. We drafted Petersen in 2013. He's had 4 years of development and still isn't ready for the NHL. Even if we hit on a goalie this draft it will probably be 2021 or 2022 before he has a look at the NHL.

You kidding me? I loved the choose your own adventure. That was my grade 5/6 go to when it came time for the annual scholastic book sale.....

:w00t: I wish

It'll be interesting to see if one of the 'big 3' dmen are available at 8 or if we go BPA forward.

An hour late to the party my friend :lol:

Yep. Based on the 15 min of research I've done on him he seems to check most of the boxes. I doubt I'll react much either way to any hire. Let's wait until Christmas and I'll tell you then if it was a good choice or not.

Ya don't know a ton about him but his resume looks pretty good. Florida also interviewed him. In jbot I trust.

Meh.

That's a wet dream.

This. Great points. Unless it's Housley this board will probably have a severe overreaction. But this is the right away to approach it IMO. That room was fractured to the core. We need a leader that can come in and pick up the pieces more than an x's and o's guy.

Good lord man. We're talking about Giorgio estephan. I mean even my autocorret wants to change it to estrogen. It's Giorgio estephan. I know it's may 26th. I know we wish it was October 10th. But Jesus, we're talking Giorgio estephan. Woooooooooooo friggen cares.....he won't go somewhere else and haunt us. I'm a guy that gets caught up in our prospects and usually overrate them. I don't give two shits if we sign him or not. It's a 6th rounder who has been ok. Let's stop wasting our time here. I've heard this dudes name like 20 times in the last week. I'm almost positive after July I'll never here his name again so long as I shall live.

This.
