Sujet: Borje Salming - ALS
Borje Salming was my childhood idol. There was certainly nothing to cheer about as far as team success was concerned in the 1980s, but there was Borje. I'm sure The King is regarded more as a "pioneer" or "trailblazer" these days, but his on-ice performance was truly elite (at both ends of the ice). But above all that, he is truly a man of humility and class.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">A little known fact on Borje Salming. In 1987, when no one else would, before the IIHF would even sanction women’s hockey, he funded Sweden’s women’s team to travel to Canada for the first ever women’s international competition, the World Women’s Hockey Tournament. <a href="https://t.co/kdN33KjLCy" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">https://t.co/kdN33KjLCy</a></p>— Ian Kennedy (@IanKennedyCK) <a href="https://twitter.com/IanKennedyCK/status/1557384335858229248?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">August 10, 2022</a></blockquote>



I wish him all the strength and courage as he faces this devastating and cruel disease.

Sujet: Long term goalie solution
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Salzy</b></div><div>Ducks fans realize that Gibson has played the second most game of any goalie over the last 5 years and has faced the second highest amount of shots over that span for a team that has been a bottom 10 team in the league over those 5 years

If he was as you say "****" and "Mediocre" why is he the most traded for player on this website right now?</div></div>


So who's played the most games and faced the most shots in that span? Has his (or their) game descended into complete mediocrity? And from what I see, he's only started 60 games once in his career. If he crumbles under that "workload", thanks for providing more reason to stay away from him.

I have no idea why so many people want him traded. I'm on your side though, I hope he stays where he is.

Sujet: Next year if we lose
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ledge_And_Dairy</b></div><div>What a weird way to attempt to invalidate my point. I am not saying Mangiapane is better than Marner, nor am I saying anything like "Toronto should add." You were originally responding to the the other user stating their production in the last 8 games. You said an 8 game sample size is stupid, all I did was expand on that sample size to provide a better POV.

I, like you, am not talking about the trade proposed. I was just giving you a better sample size to work with as you may not have been aware of Mangiapane's growth towards the end of last season and how that carried over into this year.</div></div>

Now I must question your reading comprehension skills overall. For the second time, you've totally misrepresented a post of mine.

I did not attempt to "invalidate" your point. Quite the opposite, I clearly stated "Yes, 26 (meaningful?) games is a better sample size than 8. Because 8 games are ridiculous." That was your point as you yourself admit that you, like me, are not talking about the trade proposed.

And let me save you time if you wish to continue. Yes, 40 games are better than 26 or 8 and no I don't care about the growth of Mangiapane's offseason workouts.
