If you just woke up and see 5-10 pages, you might not want to get too excited in terms of news on Rasmus.

Haven’t been posting regularly in a while and my god some of the regulars need to take some deep breaths. Just too many people acting as behavioural policemen.

Message boards are a dying breed… be nicer to each other so lurkers feel welcome to post without thinking they’ll get jumped on if they say the wrong thing.

The one piece that doesn't make sense/sound accurate is the speculated 7-8 million AAV deal. Seems quite low to me, given what some charlatans have been paid.

If you think of it as the total amount (56–64 million) divided by the number of years Andersson is likely to be actually productive, it makes more sense. I would be looking at it as six years for around $10m per, with deferred payments to get the cap hit down.

25 year old puck moving damn
22 year old two way center
First round pick that has the chance to fall 10-20?

I think if you would have told me this return at the start of the season I would have been over the moon. Much better than the Hanifin return.

Will wait on confirmation, but great work Conroy if that’s the case. 3 firsts this draft should be super fun. The rebuild is on!

If we get some lottery luck and can snag one of Stenberg or McKenna things are starting to look pretty promising.

Jay, everyone understands your point here, it’s just that it’s pedantic and provides nothing of value. As usual you dig your heels in (hope this turn of phrase doesn’t set you off) and over explain yourself. You come across as someone very desperate for validation.

Now what’s this deal with Dallas still being in the mix?

That's a very good deal, if you are getting a 2026 1st round pick, and a choice of which one is better, excellent asset management by CC

Call me crazy not sold on Hagen's, I think griden will be better

We’ve even had a player post as member. And back in the day Noodles didn’t post but pm’d someone who had been particularly critical about him
