This way you have it with the deadline sure has a lot of threads. Wasn't that thew problem in the first place. I liked it the way it was last year. Messed up but it made for one great thread.

On another note if we hear rumors and unofficial deals and stuff should we post it here?

Rumors go in the Trade Rumors Forum

Next year we let Stubbs be the admin for 24 hours. (-:

Well, I figure this way is more work for the admins, but if they're willing to do it... I'm happy either way. I'm easy.

Because when there are 4 trades and 14 posts for those trades, the board becomes useless, with posters fighting for position and repeating themselves.

Now the board looks organized, is easy to post on and easy to read, thuis attracting more posters.

Now imagine tomorrow if there are say 50 trades and say 250 posts. The board would be useless.

I think we've done a good job getting it ready for a great day for hockey.

Why not follow our rules?

I really don't care how the trades are organized just that soon when the gates of hell are opened and we're flooded with many new trades, we might have a problem.

Guys. We survived last year's deadline, the year that had the most trades to date.

Who's to say we cannot handle this year? We have two more admins (myself and Has), with myself and DM being on the boards ALL DAY. msweet will be around, and I'm sure Rock and red will do their best to check in as much as possible.

I really don't think it's fair to continue to complain after all the work we've put into this. And like msweet said, the easier it is, the more attractive it is. The easier it is on you, the easier it is on us.

I meant by umors a sin say on the radio right now their disucssin that Colorado is about to get Kolzig and Barnaby might be sent to Ottawa very soon. Just like tomorrow afternoon as the trade deadline counts down.

I think "unconfirmed" = "rumor".

RD: You can't please everyone, ya gotta please yourself. People like to complain... and admins are going to be the butts of complaints. Goes with the job. Be happy that most of are very happy with all the work you guys are doing...

[JesterDevil]

It's not like this is a pay site, we all come here for free, I'll take any time dedicated to organizing the site the admins can give, and with much appreciation.

[Elias 2662]

Yeah and we shouldn't even be talkign about this now, WHERE ARE THE TRADES????

[njdevils783]

Yeah allot easier when i must first consult the 2 day posting rules to see if what im doing is ok...

[njdevils783]

But with that said you guys are doing a great job organizing at least

[DevilMinder]

It's not that difficult 783. The rules are from lessons we learned last year and we intend to follow them. It makes our life easier and keeps the information flowing.

Boring day, huh?

[JesterDevil]

When did Pittsburgh get Steve Webb? I never even knew they had him, I thought he went to the Wild?

[JesterDevil]

So we do we post the DISCUSSION threads at?

[NJDevs4978]

Jester, I think you're confusing Webb with Jason Wiemer.

And discussion threads will be posted for the more important trades, general trades will be discussed here.

[JesterDevil]

Ah.. thats right...thanks Has..

[Elias 2662]

Buffalo gets Brad Brown from Minny.
The name doesn't ring a bell but I thought they were going to be sellers now considering their awful loss to St. Louis last night....

[Z-Man]

Gotta love the Wild dealing players away after their run last year.
