@Nomis97@MatthewSheasby@sportingnews@TheHockeyNews Yes. Also Crosby >> mcjesus. I'd also rather him at left wing than any of the left wingers ok this list except ovi. And I'd put him on right wing ahead of Selanne for sure. Absolute joke leaving him off and I'm not even a fan. Just objectively this is a joke.
@DarrenDreger Hmmm
Mike BabCOCK <- Kris KNOBlauch <- Jay WOODcroft <- Dave TIPpett <- Ken HitchCOCK
Edmonton are you doing this on purpose or is this a Freudian slip?
@DonnieandDhali@DhaliwalSports Depends. If the Canucks are paying to take him like the kayn situation then hard no. That's sooo dumb. If Montreal is giving up assets to dump his contract then yes obviously.
@_nyrvana_@dylancrewscigar@Raymond_Hatt I agree picks are worth more than players. Otherwise hronek would be worth more. Most likely scenario is 2OV never becomes as good a player as Hronek is right now. And if he does, it won't be for years. But, he's too old for SJS right now so there's that.
@_nyrvana_@dylancrewscigar@Raymond_Hatt Lol the value is absolutely not the cost if it hits. "If it hits" isn't even a tangible thing. did Byfield "hit"? He's a good player. He's not jack Eichel. 100% hronek is worth 2OV. I still wouldn't do it if I was SJ though.
@_nyrvana_@dylancrewscigar@Raymond_Hatt Last 10 2OV picks:
Laine - bust
Patrick - bust
Svechnikov -stud
Kakko - meh
Byfield - meh
Beniers - meh
Nemec - not looking good
Carlsson - looking really good
Levshunov - too early
Misa - too early
2 better than hronek (or prob will be)
6 significantly worse/bust
2 too early
@_nyrvana_@dylancrewscigar@Raymond_Hatt Probably not getting hronek for a late first and change. But we'll see, maybe I'm wrong. I wouldn't do 2OV if I were Grier, but not because it's not fair value. He's worth 2OV. He's a very good player. It just doesn't make sense for SJ right now.
@sekeresandprice 1 player doesn't make a rebuild successful. If you answered no then you really don't understand how this works. It could be Conor McDavid and the answer is still yes.
@_nyrvana_@dylancrewscigar@Raymond_Hatt If I was a GM trying to make the playoffs or contend? 100% I would. If I were Mike Grier? No I would not because I'm in no rush to contend next year.
@_nyrvana_@Raymond_Hatt Lol do you know how many very good defencemen don't win the norris each year? This is the dumbest comment I've seen today. I'm not saying it's a good trade but saying it's not because he won't win a Norris is hilarious. It's trading a more volatile asset for a less volatile one.
@DonnieandDhali@DhaliwalSports Honestly just happy that they landed on one of two really good candidates. Either one would be really good and a breath of fresh air. RJ is great but I also feel like a totally new perspective could be good.
@superniceperso@Steve_Dangle There's a difference between judging him and his performance as the GM of the leafs and judging the decision to hire him. They're not the same. Nothing wrong with people judging the decision to hire him. It's valid. But you're right to say wait to judge his performance.
