Fun fact: Johnny has never scored 80 points in the NHL

Could've fooled me.
I'm sorry, who said that? I guess you're just arguing with nobody again.

Well it's true. I don't know how someone can be an 80 point player when they haven't even done it once. Very similar to how Oiler fans loved calling Hallsy a 30 goal player.

Mike Johnson, when he suggested Gaudreau was an 80 point player.

Cool off on the bitchy comments.

Alex Hemsky was an 80 point, point per game player in 2006. He never did either things, but it was a great 3-4 seasons.

I'd love to call Jarome Iginla a 100 point player for the Flames, but it just didn't happen, no matter how close he came.

Maybe I'm wrong. It just seems like he didn't really come out ahead on that one.

I guess it's easier to attack the poster then discuss the actual topic. Funny enough, CP is in the minority regarding what Gaudreau is worth . . .

Sure it's true, it's just an extremely petty point to bring up and doesn't at all change the point Johnson was making. But I guess that's how you want this discussion to go.

How the hell do you know that?

And "CP" isn't an entity, it is a collective of many different opinions.

You are truly starting to come across as nothing but a "look at me.. look at me".

Annoying.

Can you back this up with anything other than anecdotal links?

It really wasn't that hard. I only had to count to 5. I'm well aware of what your opinion on Gaudreau is, as is everyone.

God forbid we use FACTS to back up points. That would just be silly. Oh and just because your tripe isn't actually worth a serious answer:



Random Gif Attack was Super Successful.

Because you didn't expect it. That's why.

It isn't a petty point. He isn't an 80 point player. 80 point players are players that have reached that milestone consistently

Johnny isn't an 80 point player. If he wants to be paid like one - he needs to do it at least once. And then again.

Always a terrible argument. Owners are far richer, players are on their payroll. Your solution would be to allow billionaire owners to hoard more of the money while the players do the leg work? The money is all relative.

the person making a false claim, or exaggeration, is the one manipulating how they 'want the conversation to go', not the person correcting them.

I don't have a problem with Johnny asking for 8 when the Flames are at 6.5 as long as they mutually land somewhere that is fair for both sides. What I would have a problem with is if one side isn't willing to budge.

What's perplexing is how far apart they still are. They had really since the end of the season so 5 months to hash this out.
