Does believing in something while the majority disagree not then force you to have question what you believe? What good is believing this is fair if 99% of the opposition doesn't?

Philosophy aside, I can't think of a single reason why Arizona would do this, outside of Cooley telling them he won't sign there and Minny is the only team he would sign with. Which in that case, means Minny could probably get him for cheaper than your offer.

I have absolutely no problems with standing alone on anything…THIS…this is fun, relax.

That isn't remotely close for cooley

Cooley would have to play 3 more years of college hockey to make good on that threat

Yeah that’s not a good enough package to get AZ to move Cooley

I know this sites comment section often forces us to go into defensive mode automatically but my comment was as chilled as they come my man. It was just an honest question.
Standing alone on ones principles with quite possibly 0 reason to believe otherwise might not be a trait you'd want to believe in. We're not talking about religion or politics here. Its hockey trade value. What good exactly is standing alone on this?

How is that fun exactly and what difference is this with trading McDavid for a 7th rounder then? One could stand alone on that too because they are having fun but then what fun do you get from standing alone on a site meant for sharing the experience with others?

Thanks for the couch trip! What do I owe you? 🤣

think about all the time someone offer crap for minesota players and they believe its fair value and how you feel.

Point taken…but I didn’t offer crap! It might not be enough, but it’s definitely not crap!

or 50% of a player's worth then!

Oh come on! I’m a huge Gopher AND Cooley fan. I guarantee I am more familiar with his game than 99% of people here…
He is definitely not worth 2 Rossis, 2 Addisons, and 2 1st round picks.

well he might be the best drafted prospect right now, thats close to what it might takes for a trade! dont think addison('s) and late first are worth that much for him. and that the whole point of my argument anyway. think about what people are offering for kap and what you think he is actually worth to you. probably worlds appart!

An answer to my question would have been nice. Alas I don't think you want to answer it so I'll just do like everyone else on here.

Arizona laughs and hangs up. Gonna take more than that to get Cooley!

I guess I don’t really feel compelled to defend or justify why I am completely comfortable in my own skin, but since you asked…My relationship with Jesus is the only thing that truly matters in this world…everything else is for passing time until my number is called.

After June 18th, he will be the 6th…

After June 18th, he will probably be the 6th…

anything from 3rd to 6th for sure. what will rossi be?

30-40

The fact that you took it as a personal attack that needs justification is why i hate this site sometimes. Either way I've clearly wasted enough of both of our times, enjoy your day!

Sincerely, I didn’t take it as a personal attack at all. As far as I’m concerned, we are good! Have a great day!

It cracks me up when people talk about a top 2 pick being worth the world. Take this trade that was debated on Skor North a few days ago. Kaprizov for Bedard. Would you do it? First off it wouldn't be offered that way. Second, like Lafreniere, there is a bust factor to these kids. Not calling Bedard a bust but picks don't equal players. The second overall isn't worth Kaprizov because Fantilli may never pan out to equal Kaprizov production. I can't stand doing trades on here because there's too much uncertainty. Was Kevin Fiala worth the number 2 last year? Probably. We don't know what Nemec will be but Fiala's production probably outweighs most prospects out there. Just my 2 cents
