Well of course the narrative will have changed, there's thousands of different posters each with a different idea of how things may go, and future possibilities change as events become the past.

This is the kind of post that's earning you your reputation.

There's nothing wrong with having or expressing an opinion, even a contrarian one. But I suggest you find a better way of engaging soon or you might not be engaging for much longer.

Somebody is trying to take "most hated poster" title from you, just let it happen.

- Both Monahan and Gaudreau will sign together before the World Cup, nothing to worry about
- With Monahan's deal done, Johnny will be right behind, nothing to worry about. Definitely not gonna trade him, a deal will get done.
- He'll definitely be signed and at training camp to learn the system
- Ok well he'll be there for sure when the real games matter, he doesn't need time to learn the system
- We'll do just fine without him for a couple of games, it's worth it in the long run
- Let's trade him because he's a small winger. He'll never be Sam Bennett.
Your last statement is a complete fabrication. Get a grip.

Hated? Woah, that's intense. Am I actually hated by people?

Holy cow. I apologize?

I think it's more like hate the way people hate Batman vs. Superman.

I'm sure hfOilers and Lynxie would welcome Gaudreauvertime with open arms.

No, not hated. But sometimes annoying.
The July 1 UFA thread is/was gold.
You can still ride that wave for a while.

The reason I bring it up is to highlight that there is no certainly as to what will happen or won't happen. Much like your signature suggests. It's not intended to be antagonistic, but there seems to be a lot of absolutism as to what will happen and those who disagree with that perspective don't always get received too well.

You people really need to stop responding to it. It's the air it breathes. (With the exception of Photon, who did what was needed, and who I thank.)

I don't get the problem that some people have with Gaudreauvertime and a few others... I make comments that people disagree with too I'm sure.... I'm learning to make comments as I feel I'd like to and move on... its a free world... Gaudreauvertime.... Don't bother getting into the back and forth stuff... You will be happier and live longer.... If you piss someone off just enjoy the moment and move off

Do tell, where exactly are they?

What about my post made you think I knew exactly where they are? According to multiple sources, including Ken King, there is a sizable gap.

Thanks Scotty, perhaps I should just make my posts and more or less ignore responses.

The matter of fact way you said it.

Please source these multiple sources. And while you're at it, source your "including Ken King" reference.

Man, I gotta give you and the other mods a ton of credit photon, I'm a moderator on another board and I would have perma IP banned this joker about 100 posts ago.
