  1. Absolutely DEADLY ACCURATE post! THAT is the honest to God's truth!!
  2. Ranta on waivers seemed odd to pass on.
  3. Sure, I'm not in any way hoping any of Danny's decisions backfire. But, I'll call it out when I dont agree. For the most part, hes been respectable +.
  4. The problem here is careless treatment of assets. I want a GM who fights, scrapes, claws every last ounce out of every asset. Not giving them away as casual throw in or getting a 47 year old Dman who has been total crap for a decade for a playoff run that may never happen. Its poor asset management....pure and simple. Southeran can only be called up on emergency basis only. I still think Belpiodo is faster and a better option than Johnson.
  5. Yes...he is signing with his old SHL team. Good point about being Hexy picks ..makes sense.
  6. Have you heard the rumor Ginning is planning on signing with his old KHL team after this year?
  7. I agree. While there might be more suitors at the draft or this summer....I would argue having Markstrom for 2 playoff runs (before a new contract is needed) is substantial. Rumors that Jersey was now willing to take the full cap hit instead of the Flames retaining make it more of a head scratcher.
  8. Danny is entering dangerous territory. Throwing away draft picks like they are suckers at the greeting bowl of a business. Its just not responsible. Quite possible Belpido is better than Johnson at this juncture of their careers. Just call up a Phantom! Johnson is WASHED!! I consider Southeran a respectable prospect and he was selected a round later than we gave up for Mr.Washed and the playoff run that may or may not happen. Did I mention Danny overpaying in term and salary to a 30 year old defensemen, THEN throwing in the Homer/Fletch no trade clause?? Bad flashbacks.
  9. Belpiedo has proven to be serviceable if they needed a body. I get not wanting to wreck young careers by putting them in high pressure situations if they are deemed not ready...but this is counter productive at best, downright stupid at worst. Stop treating assets like throw away crap!
  10. I was OK with keeping Seeler, simply because he play was worth more than the 3rd rd pick he would have sent back... HOWEVER...I had some preconceived cut off points with Seeler. The term was MAX 2 years and the cap hit was MAX 2.2 mill per year. Danny exceeded these cut off points, making this a VERY bad idea. To much salary and way to much term considering his age and skill set. Danny, as a team builder took a step back in my mind...makes me question if he's ready for this. Crucial error here. For this to be somewhat salvageable...Seeler must play as the defensive minded stalwart on the 2nd pairing AND be the primary short handed Dman for the life of this deal. I do think the effort will always be there...BUT, will the body be willing considering his style of play?? What does a 33-34 year old Seeler play like?
  11. He really was due for this. His shooting % has always been double digits and he has poked along at 5-6% all year. The odds say the Goals would come.
  12. The only way the Flyers can truly tank is to convert talent into other assets, like trading away half your defense for instance. They have a strict disciplinary coach who will not accept half hearted effort. The players would not fall in line with a tank anyways, they are competitors who have a rep to uphold. Its management's decision to deplete the talent pool enough that they can't swim. .
  13. At the end of this deadline, they "should have enough ammo for #7-10ish...go get your guy...
