Oh, and for the record, I'm not a McDonald fan. But I do know how to look at the context a player is stuck in and judge their performance accordingly. Try it yourself sometime.

So why did you delete it if you were so sure that I was making all these comments in regards to Flames prospects? I get that you don't have time to look them up but if you are so sure about it surely you could have left the post and the evidence would still prove you correct? The truth is I don't crap on prospects non-stop as you would see if you searched as I would say I'm one of the more positive posters in regards to most (not all) prospects and you should accept that you are incorrect here. That's ironic you telling me to look at the context when you can't yourself.

Also I did not go into the Poirier thread after you called me out to praise him. The post below was from yesterday for crying out loud. Another lie. Mods please make this guy stop.

People get so worked up/emotional about the most random things...calm down boys...

***To contribute- Absolutely sign Lyon if you can. The more goalies the better, biggest crapshoot there is.

that is horrible news if Freidman is riight

[btimbit]

####, not Edmonton.

[Rejean31]

Why would he want those two teams? He must want to be a backup to Quck or Talbot.

Elliot Friedmans tweet in response to this tweet, not sure if it means anything.

(Question from someone)
Down to LA and Edmonton for Alex Lyon per @FriedgeHNIC

"Think there are more teams, they are two" (Friedmans response)

Hasn't he noticed how the Oilers have been developing goalies?

Hey I dunno man, that Devan Dubnyk was pretty good!

[sureLoss]

I could understand why LA. The backups of Quick (i.e. Bernier & Jones) develop well in LA's system and sign pretty lucrative contracts with their new teams.

[1qqaaz]

Maybe he will sign in LA, get a 93.1 save percentage, get traded to Edmonton, then have his career ruined.

Ben Scrivens.
