Sabre fan Posted April 20, 2017 Report Posted April 20, 2017 With GMTM's sudden and unexpected dismissal one is made to look at his moves and try to see where he went wrong. I thought getting OReilly for next to nothing was a steal but in the end, is he worth the huge contract? Jack is the future, so where does OReilly fit? Do they explore moving him? Just thinking out loud... Quote
darksabre Posted April 20, 2017 Report Posted April 20, 2017 Actually, I think this is a topic worth exploring. Quote

TrueBlueGED Posted April 20, 2017 Report Posted April 20, 2017 Strictly speaking, he probably doesn't deserve more than Bergeron is making. But I'd still rather have O'Reilly at $7.5M than Toews at $10.5M. Ultimately he's a Selke-caliber center, and his pay is in line with that value. Quote
Sabre fan Posted April 20, 2017 Author Report Posted April 20, 2017 I do not think he doesn't earn his money but if we could get that stud defenseman we need it's just a thought... Quote

There's what? 4 players in the league who make what Bergeron should be making Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted April 20, 2017 Report Posted April 20, 2017 (edited) There's what? 4 players in the league who make what Bergeron should be makingRight. Bergeron is an astounding value, and it'd be unfair to expect that contract to be the benchmark. Ideal? Yes. Benchmark? No. I do not think he doesn't earn his money but if we could get that stud defenseman we need it's just a thought... A bad one. A very very bad one. If you were a droid, I'd send you to have your memory wiped as to forget you ever had the thought. Edited April 20, 2017 by TrueBlueGED Quote
Stoner Posted April 20, 2017 Report Posted April 20, 2017 Oh man, please delete this thing Ryan just said he had a terrible season. So there is that. Quote
qwksndmonster Posted April 20, 2017 Report Posted April 20, 2017 Ryan just said he had a terrible season. So there is that.ROR is way too hard on himself, which we already knew. Dude needs to drop acid and find himself this summer. Quote
GASabresIUFAN Posted April 20, 2017 Report Posted April 20, 2017 No, but I'm ok with him and his deal. We just need to find a center who can win some draws and kill penalties so that we aren't over working him Quote
Sabre fan Posted April 20, 2017 Author Report Posted April 20, 2017 I do think we overused both OReilly and Risto but hopefully a new coach and GM will alleviate that problem. and yes, we need another center among other things... Quote
Huckleberry Posted April 20, 2017 Report Posted April 20, 2017 So what will we talk about on this thread ? Pancakes ? eggs ? Quote

If you jettison ROR to get that Stud defender you then have to turn around and find a ROR to replace ROR. It is like plugging a leak with your finger by removing it from another leak. Quote

LGR4GM Posted April 20, 2017 Report Posted April 20, 2017 But we don't need ROR. We have Zemgus. Things I was beyond wrong about. Hence my formal apology to Blue for even saying it. Foot + Mouth = we don't need ROR What is dead may never die. Winter is Coming. Someone photoshop Terry's head onto the knight king for me. Quote
7+6=13 Posted April 20, 2017 Report Posted April 20, 2017 He's pretty fricken good Darn right he is. He's not an easily replaced player. Quote
Randall Flagg Posted April 20, 2017 Report Posted April 20, 2017 Darn right he is. He's not an easily replaced player. I don't know why the heck anyone would even think about it. Quote
