How did that work out ?

Lomberg knocked Vesey out of the game, Kulikov nearly killed Wennberg.

Rempe couldn’t even do the one thing he’s useful for

This too...

Kulikov just demolished Rempe 💥

Rempe has better playoff stats than Dahlin, you can hate on that all you want.

“While Benson isn’t the best forward the Blue and Gold have ever drafted, he’s shown skill and ability and will hopefully continue to advance each year he’s on Buffalo’s roster.”

He’s an above average skater, tough, good hands, good hockey IQ. Not a fit. I see why we gave up on him

You’re brain isn’t big enough to comprehend the Rempire state of mind.

You're in NYC, right?

If the Rangers are eliminated at home, will the fans give them a standing ovation like they did when the Knicks were eliminated at home?

One of the under sized needs to go then. Probably Krebs. We need size on the bottom 6 desperately. The only size we have is Greenway and he laces up cement shoes

Rempe will personally thank every fan for attending.

Did you sob into your Tempe t-shirt every game that he rode the pine?

It’s a boring roster to watch as well, with little entertainment hype in the #1 prospect pool.

Tempe Arizona is ass

Nylander had 3 points in 4 games.
Matthews had 4 in 5

Pasta had 5 in 7

Zacha was the Bruins 1st Line Centre and scored his first playoff goal in his 25th game in the second round against Florida.

It takes a village.

Barclay Goodrow who has been mostly awful since leaving Tampa scored the game winner last night.

Now compare this to McDavid/Draisaitl/Kreider etc.

The stars need to be stars

Im not sure what to tell you.

I asked a legitimate question and you gave me a non answer

There’s very few ELC players that have been vital to a cup team.

It’s a very over rated “need”.

You're getting more like Pegullaville by the minute.
How can one kick field goals when you're moving them all over the place.
Smoke a joint and chill dude.

You can find games where depth guys score the goals to win. When you look at cup winners (and obviously more games), the stars are stars.

No question that looking small sample sizes is going to lead to some bad conclusions.

Congrats to Scott Arniel

A very small % of those rosters consist of ELC players.

The post I responded was saying it’s a need to have a bunch of these players.

It’s not. Would it be nice? Of course. I’m not against it.

But you have to get the core right first
- sbroads24

Liar.
Don't outright lie when trying to pin something on me. You to me to task for saying something I didn't say, then double down on the lie with further posts when you are proven wrong.

Please, show me exactly where it said "a bunch" of them on ELC's?

You'll see the light of my genius eventually.
Acquiring a Top 6 player like Konecny serves to eliminate an open F position in the Top 9, rendering Kulich (and Rosen) redundant for the next several seasons. That assumes of course that Adams chooses to keep JJP and Quinn, while riding the Skinner train for another season or 2.

The above strategy allows Adams to keep the player selected with the '24-11thOA as a cheep replacement player in ~3 season on an ELC when Quinn and Peterka bridge deals have expired. Trust me, they will need them.

What a fvcktark. Get a life.

Never liked how they go about this exercise. Multiple staff doing the grading and they don't agree on what they are grading.

Buffalo News came out with something to, but I can't post that one.

Ok, so “them” means multiple then, correct?

What are you getting all bent out of shape for?

It’s an over rated talking point people use. Just like “goalies are voodoo” or “if you’re blocking shots it’s actually bad because you don’t have the puck”

Don't think much of their writers anymore, but at least there's some consistency.

Of course. Surprised anyone disputes the Leafs issues weren’t the stars

Surprised Matthew Knies and his sweet ELC didn’t get the job done

Boy you seem awfully rattled that someone challenged your arrogant “you’ll see my way” and “I don’t know what to tell you” post, eh?
