I feel like GMs have conspired to do this just to laugh at their TVs

Good point!
Maybe I was wrong about this poster, it isn't Woodcroft after all.

Ah, I didn't know he just had a presser. I wasn't comparing to other GMs. Just feel like I've seen/heard much less from him this season than previous years.

I don't think the GM is as desperate as the fanbase is to make a move or to move any of these guys with 1 year left on their deals.

And honestly that's probably good that he's not desperate to make a change just out of frustration with how the season has went. Thats how you move Jokinen for Higgins and Kotalik. And Phaneuf for Ian White and Matt Stajan.
I keep saying it - the market is different but not necessarily worse at the end of the season. Plus, this team has looked very good in a lot of game but for goaltending, so it's not hard to imagine them thinking that they should stand pat, with no big re-signs necessary and a good chance of improvement if goaltneind rebounds (or Wolf arrives).

"But Tanner Jeannot got a first"

Yeah, at 2025 conditional first. And he's an $800K 25 year old player on an expiring contract who had a rough year but scored 41 points the year before. Name me a Flame who sounds like that.

Yeah, something tells me we're gonna do a Lil swap with the Jets. They want to add term players.

Think we could pry a Lambert or Lucia's from them for a Mangiapane?

You seem to know a lot about kiddie pools and 14 year olds. I do remember having a pool when I was younger - tons of fun!

If my opinion is insufferable to you - please feel free to put me on ignore. I promise that I won't be offended.

I hate to say it, because he was been so good, but Blake Coleman likely holds a lot of value.

Yesterday, I learned that babies don’t need to wear regular diapers under their swim diapers because the pool doesn’t care about the piss, only the poo.

Which the swim diapers prevent.

Gross.

The Jets have to be one team that is desperate. I'm sure they thought they were contenders early on, and now they are fighting to stay in. They made the Nino N. move but they still have some space for Tanev. Or maybe Backlund to chuck Lowry into a good 4C role. 2024 expiring contracts fit in their window.

Not really - honestly, I do value your contributions to the board.

I am just disappointed with the direction of the team and dislike the current GM. Not as a person but the body of work and I think GMs on other teams complete transactions more aligned with how I think.

It‘s because of the one fan who confronted him in public and called him “Bradley.” He’s had a vendetta against all of us ever since. Only making moves to turn us against each other, slowly destroying ourselves from the inside.

God he’s brilliant.

You really dont want to look into the percentage of how many adults pee in the pools...

Hah, I had completely forgotten about that. One of my favourite childish moments on CP.
