What do you thin kAdams offered before falling back to Greenway?

No idea but I’d be willing to talk middlefat, Krebs, Peterka, our first and any prospect not named Savoie. Not all of them of course. The Caps need to start thinking of life after Ovi.

Get him signed. Do what you have to do. Tom Wilson is exactly the type of piece this team needs. Admittedly, I’m not a cap guy, I don’t know the implications of Dahlins contract, and not sure what resigning Wilson looks like. How much do you think he gets per year?

Not hating him for doing that. Just saying

A few of us have been beating around that.

Wonder if it was a cost or Washington not wanting to move him.

That’s a good call from both of you right there. I’d stash that if I were you too.

Another guy that stews for awhile after getting called out, and then pops off before his brain catches up with his mouth. You edited my quote.
- SoCalPucks


I have a one year old son, wise ass.

But since he is now on a walk with my wife, I’ll take a second to remind you once again how you’re a moron.

Your original quote

“ One spot in the top 6. One chance to put the finishing touch on this grand plan, and they’re going to blow their wad on an over-the-hill once-was with a skill set similar to what they have in abundance already. Seems like a great idea”

To which I stated

“ Having too many skilled players is an issue ?

And you wonder why I’m a contrarian.

Patrick Kane is not the skill player to acquire, but I fail to see why adding another top 6 skill forward is met with skepticism.”


And once again, to have an abundance of something is to have more than you need.

So once again, I fail to see how I failed to comprehend what was written.

Thank you for attending my Ted Talk.

Bro, you are the one intentionally misinterpreting “skill set similar to what they have in abundance already”. This is your problem. You’re arguing a point that nobody is making. I did not say unskilled. First, I said “skill set” which implies a certain set of skills, as in a certain type of player. I was not suggesting we have too many skilled players. I then also made it clear that the problem is having too many of the same type. You seem to think there’s not such a thing as different skills, and complementary styles. Unless of course you’re losing an argument 5 pages ago in which case you flip and say exactly what I’m saying now. You are the root of all your own problems here. And you’re embarrassing yourself. Good grief, lmaooooo

Im not going to speak bad about anyone but behind the scenes he has changed his mind many times and thinks hes Entitled to certain things.

At this point the string is almost broken with him and some in the organization

- gerbe75pts



Well this surprises nobody when he didn’t sign before the end of the season he was gone. Waste of a first round pick either way.

I would take their 3rd round pick instead of having to wait a year to get the last pick in the 2nd rd

They would essentially be about the same pick just different years. I’m with you on that

Alex Tuch was supposed to miss 4-to-6 weeks after blocking that shot in February.

He returned 17 days later.
