I'm with ya HW, if I'm coming across as though I want him
signed to some albatross that'll weigh us down for the better part of a decade that's the furthest thing from the truth.. When Treleving's sorcery have us all enjoying front row seats to Shock&Awe2K15 and the signing is announced, I'll be as excited as any fan out there. From taxes to culture to what the team has rapidly become and is projecting to be in terms of measurable results (had to avoid using Oiler buzzwords there lol), I think that there are a lot of elements tbat come together and make an attractive move for both sides.

It's better to stay grounded as fans, and have expectations in line with what players of this calibre are worth though. I'd be embarrassed to see a Gio extension that's (realistically) team friendly, only to see 70 pages of people already running him out of town for it, getting their chicken little 2021/22 act prepped.

Yoho, I'll have you driving your own BMW within two years if you can commit to the program bud
