It was whether Tavares would re-sign with the Islanders before they hired a new head coach. I believe they hired Trotz later that day or the next day lol.

Between these bets on here that I'm losing, and the fact that I can't seem to see a Devils win live in person, I really have a dark cloud hanging over me.

mfitz804 Posted December 3, 2018 Author Share Posted December 3, 2018 I was happy to lose the Zacha bet. I’ve not been paying attention and I don’t know if he has any points since then, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devilsfan118 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 (edited) Sports are funny. This kid will probably make more real dollars in these three ELC years being absolutely terrible at his 'job' than I will in the next 20+ years of my working life. But to stick to the topic of the thread - I'll donate a hard $100 to the board if Zacha exceeds 30 points this year. This would pretty much match his pace from last season so I don't think it's all that out there. If he doesn't, I'll take the $100 and put it towards attending next season's draft in person so I can berate Conte for a few hours for this stupid fvcking pick.

Nobody really thinks that. It's making people raise an eyebrow but that's it lol I've been around since 2006 and can't remember him ever being ban for anything he has said. I wouldn't hold your breath. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that bet has the same odds of you winning as betting on Rocky in Rocky IV. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well to be clear i don't want him to be banned lol his knee-jerk reactions posting 80 times per game to sh!t on players are annoying at times but it's still entertaining and he's a great contributor to the board, I also have a very dark humour which makes me appreciate most of his remarks. That being said if I'm getting banned for saying something and see someone getting away with worst constantly, not sure many people would appreciate that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said if I'm getting banned for saying something and see someone getting away with worst constantly, not sure many people would appreciate that I don't want him perma-ban or anything and I agree on the entertainment part. I just wouldn't expect parody with regard to what you say(that can get you a temp ban) and what he says(which gets him nothing), and that was more the point of that post.

How much do I need to bet and how do I go about doing it? Several of us have, but you're not obligated to by any means. At this point the side bets are arguably the most fun we've had this season, since the Devils on-ice play hasn't given us much to celebrate or be excited about 😂😩 Basically just call your shot, and see if you can find someone else to go opposite of you. Whoever loses, donate said amount to the site. I do it via Paypal, but there may be other ways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, this could be fun. Of course, now that I threw that date out there watch these guys win on Thursday. Lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
