GIFs all gone. It’s like magic.

You can also ignore user posts - block them if you will. This is what I finally remembered to do with yours. Thanks for the reminder.

What's up with the mob on here? I don't agree with some things Junglist says in particular regarding Sandman but he's entitled to have his opinion on the cryptic GIFs without getting piled on. SEC shares good info, I appreciate it, but it's okay if the GIFs ain't for everyone.

Junglist gets piled on for this particular thing because (1) his posts bitching about GIFs are a hell of a lot more repetitive and less amusing than the GIFs, and (2) he's acting like he somehow has the moral high ground by telling Sec214 what to post.

It's a really tremendously unlikeable combination. The online equivalent of what the Germans call a Backpfeifengesicht.

We aren't one Petterson away from being a contender.

No to Petterson, and no to trading Zary and/or our picks.

No, we aren't a pettersson away from the cup. But maybe a Petterson plus one or two other key pieces away.

The problem is the current mix definitely isn't going anywhere and we risk spinning our treads into continued mediocrity.

We need a hard jolt across the franchise. Kick out the remaining legs.

Why is anyone entitled to their opinion without getting piled on? He shared his opinion about Sec posts. Others shared their opinions about his. I suspect that’s what he wants anyway.

I would argue that we are quite a bit further away from the Cup that a Pettersson plus two other key pieces would provide.

But let's say you are correct.

How do we obtain those other two key pieces?

As we'll be trading quite a bit of quality to trade for Pettersson. Let's assume its Zary, Andersson and one of our first round picks this year.

We won't be drafting particularly high. Our defence is now not particularly good. Help from the farm is likely 2 years away at best, and those players will likely take even more time to be solid contributors.

And any future draft picks are even farther away.

I’ll bet Conroy inquired to get intel on what potential assets would be going to VAN in the trade. It takes assets off the table for trades he might be considering.

A Cozens or Bourque going to Van lessens his targets for a Rasmus trade.

I don't think the mods are protecting him, I think they just know this particular poster always finds a way back. What is the point of banning him if he just returns over and over again under a new name?

The problem is you’re not leaving it at that.
If you did, that’d be great.

EP may not be the right fit. However, it would be developmentally valuable to have a number one center to play with our crop of top winger prospects. May be hard for Coronato for example to hit 30 goals playing with Kadri, Backs or Zary. Having a good center would raise the value of wingers somewhat significantly.

I can't confirm all the exact names/details, but Van wanted either Bruz or Parehk as part of the return.
If it’s Zary and Huberdeau I’d probably pull the trigger but clearly the van ask is way higher than that. Under no circumstance is Parekh on the table shy of a McDavid.

I’m getting the impression Vancouver is trying to make the flames pay penance for last years trades.

Posters get insulted and mocked on this site every day, and nobody cares. But Bingo has more or less declared that ‘insiders’ are a special category of poster, and he doesn’t want anyone questioning or taking shots at them (presumably they drive engagement).

Which is fair enough - it’s Bingo’s site, and clicks pay the bills. Still, you’re right in recognizing there’s a pretty glaring double-standard at play. I’ve toyed with the idea of creating an alt account and posting ‘insider’ content for ####s and giggles.

I’d rather keep Zary.

A Pettersson trade is a trade you are when your contention window is open and you have stockpiled your prospect base and picks and graduated a bunch who are now making an impact on your team.

Sure the team is desperate for a C, but who is he coming to play with.

We seen Sutter try to patchwork a team through free agency and trades while neglecting the draft. It creates frustrating results and a pretender that fights for 8th and 9th.

We saw Treliving jump in after a fluke playoff appearance. We ended up drafting 6th the next season and never really got going with inconsistent results.

Now it’s time to be patient and build a team that can be in the playoffs a Anjali and have a legitimate 2-3 cracks at the cup.
