Quoting: PleaseBanMeForMyOwnGood
Well there is a complete idiot in this conversation saying Rielly is terrible and it would be easy to find an adequate replacement. That same complete idiot refuses to back up his really smart statement with any effort which unbeknownst to him only serves to reinforce just how much of an idiot that idiot is. I wonder how my times you'll read that until you clue into who the idiot is.
So you can’t read my comments but you can read a dictionary? Lol
Spend some time looking at my comments, understand what they mean and less time in the dictionary looking for sophisticated words that are beyond your argument skills. It’s a bad look. I know your hockey knowledge isn’t adequate so you are trying to look smart elsewhere, but this isn’t the place.
The entire point of all of this is that Rielly is not a #1 defenseman, the leafs have no cap, it is a flat cap environment, leafs don’t need to sign him with two great prospects in the queue and 2 other top 4 defensemen locked up long term. The entire point is that he is not worth the amount of money he is going to command based on his point totals. The leafs need to use that money elsewhere.
Morgan Rielly is not terrible. I have commended him several times, you just can’t read or process what you are reading. And as they are replacing from within, yes filling in the third pair will be easy.
I would ask you if I need to spell this out for you one more time, but this is about the 50th time and you still don’t understand - so I am going to go out on a limb and assume you will try to call me an idiot again, say Rielly is elite at some skill you don’t even understand and then ask why a coach would bench someone for a whiffed shot after this. And to that I reply, go back to the start of the paragraph and read it over again. And honestly, you will have a stupid reply about me not being Keefe when you’ve read it again.
This has all been super satisfying to walk all over you in these arguments, but I’m getting tired of the broken record and just overall lack of hockey knowledge. If you care to bring anything hockey related to the table and not just something about me, feel free, I’ll be happy to banter with you.. but until you can think of something - which I know you can’t, just keep it to yourself or like I said, read through my comments. Your answer will be there
