He plays top six minutes out of necessity, while our bottom six is filled with guys who are fourth liners at best, or perhaps belong in the AHL or Europe. Which of my comments in this exchange could you possibly misconstrue as saying the problem lies ANYWHERE other than the shoulders of our GM for his inability to add a top-line winger?

I don’t think any. In your multiple other posts where you talk about how he is not an NHL player that doesn’t belong in the league, etc., all over the place. Am I limited to just discussing what’s in this thread, and I’m supposed to ignore all of the other things that I know you have said about him? am I only allowed to talk about the things in this thread, because you think that’s the only things I should talk about?

Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 39 minutes ago, MB3 said: the first thing just isn’t true. in his interview it became obvious he was going to the highest bidder. paraphrasing, but he said “new jersey had the highest offer, they were the team i was likely going to go to, but jarmo called my agent and said “if we can offer X would he consider columbus” and we said yes, so we went there.” the chiclets guys asked him if he took less to go to Columbus, and he flat out said “no”. fitz drew a line in the sand and assumed/expected gaudreau would take their offer as it was the highest on the table. he assumed wrong, and gaudreau went to Columbus. I don’t mind that Fitz drew a line in the sand. Based on Gaudreau’s prior two seasons (before last year), I don’t think you just keep outbidding and outbidding…sometimes you decide to walk away when you’ve reached your top offer. Who knows what would’ve happened had he come here, but if he had the same 11 goals as a Devil as he does with the Jackets, would you be happy with that? Gaudreau decided to take the highest offer, as is his right, and he’s now kissing at least one of his remaining prime years goodbye as a result, when he could have been playing along one of two terrific young centers, with more young pieces on the way. Guess leaving a little on the table to have a better chance of winning something was less important to him than making as much as possible. Again, that’s his right. But outside of bigger paychecks, sure ain’t paying off for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or on Nico's wing instead of Tomas Tatar? Because, uh, ya. How bout you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or attach a 3rd to Johnsson to move him without paying his cap. Or attach a 3rd to Tatar to move him to any number of bottom-feeder teams.

When did I say you're "not allowed to respond"? Do you need the definition of gatekeeping? SD saying "you can't call yourself a devils fan if you call for the Devils to fire their coach 2 games into the season" is gatekeeping. But that's somehow become the biggest buzzword in the world to you and your totally-not-pay-for-friendship homie. I made a general comment and you replied obviously taking it personally by starting your reply mimicking me. That's a weird strategy for someone who has any interest in actually talking about hockey, for once. Edited January 9, 2023 by MB3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You being annoyed that I replied to a post when you didn’t quote me (but were talking about exactly what I was talking about) is gatekeeping as far as I’m concerned. I don’t need the definition of gatekeeping, it’s a got a picture of Zacha in Mickey Mouse ears right next to it. And out of curiosity, does SD pay me to be his “homie” (I’m a middle aged white man, I’m not sure I have homies), or am I supposed to pay him? I’m just curious because I haven’t gotten any checks.

Is NOT in any shape or form gatekeeping, it's not telling anyone how to feel, its not telling anyone what to do, it does not have any authority on anything, it's just giving my opinion or saying that something is dumb to me.

You keep accusing me of something yet when i confront you about it you turtle like a coward. I'll ask straight up again. Do you understand that there's a huge difference between someone giving his personal opinion saying that a claim or reaction is "dumb". Is NOT in any shape or form controlling, limiting or not allowing that person to make that claim. It's simply giving your opinion about it. It's a simple question man. Do you understand this very basic notion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
