Paying Vegas fair value for anything at this time should NOT be done.

My thought process was that if the Islanders trade Varlamov, Sorokin is gonna need a friend

yeah, the leafs would just buy ritchie out instead of that

they traded a first for foligno please dont act like they do smart things

Change your thought process. Vegas is beyond desperate to shed cap, and they should be forced by EVERYONE to pay through the nose to do it.

Fine. But I dont want Ilya to get sad😩

and Lou traded Toews for 2 seconds, i guess that mean he'll pay a lot for Ritchie

clueless leaf fan, what a shock!

*looks at the Toews trade*

You're living in a glass house, best not be throwing stones.

Chara already has a cup, he's not playing for that. He also probably wouldn't fit too well in Florida's system because of his footspeed. They are probably looking to add a top 4 guy. Someone like Gio (who needs a cup) makes more sense

Minny cant afford Beau next year, they have like 13-14M in dead cap for the next 3 years

nobody gets it. not worth explaining. adorable proverb tho

so let me get this straight, Dubas making a bad move means that theyll do it for sure again, but Lou doing it doesnt? Is that it?

all dubas does is force the issue to make bad moves. hes arguably never made a good move

what's there to explain? that Lou messed up the cap so bad by signing guys like Komarov, Martin and other bottom roster terrible players to too much money that he had to trade one of the better defenders in the league for peanuts? Cause that's what happened

and then made it to game 7 of the ECF. tell me what a playoff run is like oh wait YOU CANT

you should really go take a look at dubas' moves before saying something so easily disprovable and silly because now no one is going to take you seriously

yeah, that's the good stuff. You know you're winning an argument when someone imediatly goes to a playoff record when talking about a specific trade. Means they got nothing

which one? signing tavares when they painfully needed defense? extending Marner for a billion dollars? trading a first for foligno? trading Kadri for Tyson barrie?

you're doing a bang up job champ. Keep it up

dubas isnt tho

keep going, im sure you'll find em

you scoff when people bring up playoff success, but have you ever considered that people do that because youre sitting here talking about how great the leafs are at making moves, and the person youre saying this to might be befuddled because they realize, wow, they have literally nothing to show for it? have you considered this?

dont worry, im sure Lou will sign some 38 year old wonder to a 3x5 and get the islanders out of the basement this season

dubas would trade a first for that

lol, yeah that's it. Im totally not pointing out how fragile you are about pointing out lou's bad moves that you cant help but react with playoff 'success' instead of even pretending to debate the point.
You brought up some silly thing about dubas never making a good move and then got your pants hiked up even higher because that was pointed out as painfully in correct.
And you wanna know what Dubas has to show for it? a top 4 team in the league right now while Lou has a shot at a top 4 pick. At least Lou doesnt mess those up like everything else he does.
