@ttislandpodcast Here’s to a fun season

[hockey and baseball guy @adamlikesports]

@EthanGSN @rattmartin You and Rocco really couldn’t have written your own statements in your tones of voice without using AI? Just as lame as the paid discord!

[hockey and baseball guy @adamlikesports]

@CordUpTime That insider discord is a poison. Ethan planned (and succeeded) doxxing someone and then had their people (and maybe even themselves) harass this person repeatedly. The harassment of beat writers is not the only issue

[hockey and baseball guy @adamlikesports]

I’d like to imagine David Stearns selling the fans on this Mets team yelling “RUN PREVENTION!” over and over like Denzel Crocker in fairly oddparents

[hockey and baseball guy @adamlikesports]

@ttislandpodcast And not a peep from them about all the Darche additions contributing to the collective effort passing the eye test as well as topping the analytics scorecard

[hockey and baseball guy @adamlikesports]

@ttislandpodcast thank you!

[hockey and baseball guy @adamlikesports]

@EthanGSN yeah you were saying?

[hockey and baseball guy @adamlikesports]

@ttislandpodcast yep and Deangelo has made some bad pinches tonight as well

[hockey and baseball guy @adamlikesports]

@collinoscopy4 @MikeBartner I don’t think we were on the list of teams he was interested in going to, sounded like Avs or Montreal mainly

[hockey and baseball guy @adamlikesports]

@MikeBartner if you wanna use the argument “but they’re in their 30s! they’re declining!” I think these players are cerebral enough to maintain effectiveness at their age as we transition to the future and remain competitive

[hockey and baseball guy @adamlikesports]

@MikeBartner But for who? clearly not enough to get anything done for higher end players. We needed center depth and locking up 2 nice centers for the next couple years where we have none in the pipeline in a rising cap and a bad free agent class makes sense to me. 46 mil to use in 27-28 btw

[hockey and baseball guy @adamlikesports]

@stefen_rosner Drouin going the other way

[hockey and baseball guy @adamlikesports]

@MikeBartner if it’s true Isles were in on him and not using this as a smokescreen for something else, I’d have to imagine VAN didn’t wanna take a contract back and that was likely the dealbreaker. I’m fine with this 🤷‍♂️

[hockey and baseball guy @adamlikesports]

@scottcryptodira @DailyFaceoff @StapeNHL @JLazzy23 @ColbyCohen36 seriously. why all of a sudden during a pretty enjoyable season are we seeing some crazy bad takes on our team in the past week lol?

[hockey and baseball guy @adamlikesports]

@ttislandpodcast Schaef, Bo, Barzy (some fans want him gone but he’s irreplaceable to me), Sorokin, Heiny, Holmy, Ritchie, Pelech/Pulock (they’ve been great but also contract)

Prospects: Aitchenson, Eklund, Kvasnicka, Nelson, Eiserman (I believe in his scoring skill)

Fringe: George (no room rn)

[hockey and baseball guy @adamlikesports]

@MikeBartner 10% of third rounders become a regular NHL player. this is nothing to lose sleep over lol

[hockey and baseball guy @adamlikesports]

@ttislandpodcast the HFBoards discourse on this is incredible to witness rn

[hockey and baseball guy @adamlikesports]

@ttislandpodcast was extremely far fetched at the start of the year could but Schaefer should be under serious consideration for Team Canada. would you want him to be picked by the team and have exposure to the best players in the world as teammates, or let him have some rest to avoid a JT sitch?

[hockey and baseball guy @adamlikesports]

@ttislandpodcast think my biggest issue heading into this season was the logjam of forwards. like it’s good to have but not at the expense of young guys’ developments. Duke, Zeeker, McLean (while not bad), etc all taking up ice time. Should be day 1 Tsypy, Ritchie, Shabby, Gatcomb getting mins
