You are just making it up to serve your narrative lol. 1. Last year Fitz barely made any moves while he focused on Dougie. It worked. If it ain't broke don't fix it. 2. We have the reporting from draft day saying Fitz didn't really have a plan B if MTL took Slaf. 3. We weren't rumored to be in on any other players beside JG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it we offered above $10m and he still turned it down, not really.

We weren't rumored to be in on any other players beside JG 1)Dougie was the main target last year and we ended up with him 2) there are zero reports saying that. You’re making that up because it was said that Fitz was seeing if anyone wanted #2 when Slaf got taken. 3)we were rumored it be be in on Burakowski by someone who has had contacts through him in the past. You just don’t like that source so it doesn’t count. and we don’t know who else has been talking to us. There are no reports on Palat, Neiderreter, etc right now. Copp wasn’t coming here.

Also it’s apparently Tyler and not Tom so I’m nailing it with the reading. It’s fine, you’ll learn his first name if you ever need to know it lol .

Jerrydevil Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 15 minutes ago, CarpathianForest said: The Burakovsky thing is hearsay. He was laser focused on Gaudreau. Guy can't seem to walk and chew gum at the same time. Not only are we still in the basement, we're now the laughingstock of the league right now It's hard to pursue multiple first-day free agents when you think you have a great shot at the big fish. Before I kill the GM over this, I need to know when he knew he had no shot at Gaudreau. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not hearing something doesn’t mean there’s nothing. Yeah i don't remember reading any reports suggesting Colombus would be in on Gaudreau until McKenzie brought it up early today. And himself said "i am not reporting this... just saying i heard that maybe there's something there" And they got him. Their GM basically said "Well he wanted to come here, so we couldnt turn that down", it just wasnt a genius move or anything. We're talking about a guy who lost Bobvrosky and Panarin in their prime for nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope. I believe JG to be a massive fvcking idiot who just made the biggest mistake of his career. Not like that fvcker knows what winning looks like, he’s spent his entire career in Calgary.
