Did The Scorpion register a sock puppet account?

Oh, I understand.

No, it's only this account which I post from. Only one I've ever created.

Interesting scenario Frolik as trade bate for Fleury wouldn't mind that and we keep our 6th pick.

We are not trading Fro for Fleury. At most, we'll give the Pens a 2nd.

Fleury still has 3 more seasons at close to 6 million. I honestly think we could sign Reimer for cheaper and possibly less or equal term and not have to give anything up. Reimer might be a bit more risk but I think he has more potential upside as well. Not a big Fleury fan. If Reimer doesn't work out and the cost is too high for other tenders then I'd maybe look at Fleury as a last resort.

I think I'll end the defensemen polls too, after today.

We need quality over quantity, for sure, and daily polls aren't the way to surely maintain quality.

Leave the poll of the day to Bingo

Probably a good idea.

I want everyone to know that I don't want to hinder your experience on this site, and I don't want to be seen as an annoyance. I truly apologize for that poll, and I'll stay out of poll creation from here on out. We should really restrict poll creation to being on request.

I'm not really one to police the forum, but there does seem to be a lot of "quantity over quality" threads here these days and the vast majority of them to be started by newcomers. I think a waiting period on this forum wouldn't hurt, so new members can get into the flow of CP before to see how things tend to run around here. So many join and just blow their load in the first few days/weeks, and then get (usually rightfully) piled on.

I wouldn't mind something like this:
New members: Allowed to make up to 5 posts a day in existing threads.
1 month on forum: Allowed to start a new thread.
1 year (and meet certain post count) on forum: Allowed to make a poll.
5 years: Allowed to call mods CDC-paste eating trolls.

Why would we trade our only RW (and a good RW) for a 32 year old goaltender (who is currently controlled by a team that is being forced to trade him)?

MAF is going to go for peanuts.

You should restrict yourself to about one post per day. You're not a terrible poster overall, but it's almost impossible to ignore you due to the sheer volume. It's like constantly being poked by the snotty kid.

Would definitely prefer this not to happen. Most other forums I visit have the option to create a poll and it's nice to have. Personally if it becomes a massive issue talk to the few causing an issue, or as you said, people can just stay out of the thread. Pretty obvious there's a poll in there.
