Sujet: Trading William Nylander For Fun
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ryminister_27</b></div><div>Lol, I directly said "I know it's not the best stat" but when there's a difference of Lindholm being on the ice for 60 more goals against, that says something about Lindholm's defensive play. But sure, try to make your point with a lame come back. You clearly missed my other post where I laid out multiple categories that Nylander is better and stated that his analytics have been far better than Lindholm's for 3 seasons.

But sure, miss all that because you're bias. Great job kiddo.</div></div>

If you wanna argue +/- in regards to a guy who had the same amount of Selke votes as Marner, who Leafs fans rave about defensively, that’s cool, you’re allowed to choose to be stupid.

Regurgitating kiddo also just shows that you read +/- and throw it out there like you know something.

Sujet: This team is bad
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Tkachuckyyy</b></div><div>By 10 day break, do you actually mean 5? And that's exactly my point, the fact we will be lucky to get into the last playoff spot in arguably the easiest division in the league and then get lit up by the very teams they are having difficulty beating . The season is 20% over already... im just calling it as i see it, i like your optimism but i don't like there chances with the way this team is constructed</div></div>

I do mean 5, either way. Take just Ottawa out of the Oilers and Canucks schedules, it's 4 and 6 points respectively. The Canucks would still have more games played than the Flames and be behind the Flames at 8 points the Oilers would have the same GP with 8 points behind the Flames as well. That alone has Calgary in a playoff spot. Be the best team out of Edmonton, Ottawa and Vancouver and go from there. Get into the dance and anything is possible especially with Markstrom in net.

Sujet: Deangelo because everyone goes to Toronto
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mondo</b></div><div>Don't do this **** with me.

The point I've been trying to make is that Osuna wasn't proven guilty or innocent because the case never went to trial and the victim never testified. There's a ton we don't know and will never know in this case, and what little information we do have isn't enough for a solid judgement. I never implied he was guilty of the crime, my initial post was stating that the circumstances were much more serious than what's been going on with DeAngelo.

Secondly, the court of public opinion is not the court of law. If Calgary could host a baseball team and this happened there, your city would 100% boo him when he returned. My interpretation of your post was that Toronto fans are bad because they didn't want this guy on their team after he got charged with assault. Hearing about an athlete/celebrity getting charged with a crime almost always ends up ruining their reputation and this isn't unique to this situation.</div></div>

Toronto fans are bad. Not for the reason listed above but for many others! Have a good one.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mondo</b></div><div>https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/mlb/2018/09/25/roberto-osuna-domestic-abuse-case/1158857002/

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quote:</div>Osuna, who attended the hearing at the Old City Hall courthouse in Toronto, agreed to a peace bond in the case, which is equivalent to a restraining order in the U.S. The peace bond will run for one year and mandates there be no contact with the alleged victim.</div>

As I said, absence of justice is not innocence. Being charged with assault against your wife is much more serious than getting into a scuff with teammates. I don't believe that finger-waving Jays fans for booing this guy for allegedly beating his wife is a great hill to die on but you do you.</div></div>

In a conversation with Toronto Det. Vivian Meik, Roman Cota said she had no fears for her safety and wanted to resume contact and parenting responsibilities with Osuna, court heard

We can cherry pick articles all day. Your answer to my question remains no, that's all there is to our conversation really.

Sujet: Why Bennett Gets Traded Today
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>coga16</b></div><div>This is what flames fans and Calgary media do, try to put
Lip stick ona pig with these token statements of bad hockey players, such as crash and bangs

Bennett has a poor shot. Can’t play Centre, can’t play special teams, is poor defensively, with low hockey who takes a lot of penalties, that’s just a bad hockey player. But hey say he has a jam and a beauty to try to claim he’s more than he’s not

Compher plays special teams, can play C; and isn’t an defensive liability, so focus again on one thing such as points to gloss over 90% of his game that is Poor</div></div>

Hooly smokes, we are getting to the root here, it's just Calgary you're jaded towards!

It hurts you that Bennett for Compher works for both teams doesn't it?
Good thing the Avs don't need a C, took less PIMS last season than Cole, Calvert, Graves, Landeskog, Zadorov, Kadri... Guess they're all dumb hockey players eh? Talk about glossing over a stat

I'm not sure who in Calgary did what to your family but I'm sorry that happened to you.

Sujet: Deangelo Making Money Work
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PleaseBanMeForMyOwnGood</b></div><div>While I do believe politics doesn't have a place in hockey, extreme beliefs don't either. A guy who pedals conspiracy theories and supports white nationalists is dangerous. I think there are lines that need to be drawn and he crosses them all the time. Laughing it off is just ignorant. The game is striving to be more inclusive and guys like DeAngelo work against that. I would never want him anywhere near my team. Anyone who does is should re-evaluate what is and isn't acceptable behavior for a person in his position.</div></div>

I'm definitely not getting into on here, no point in that. I think you are telling the most absolutely dramatic side of the story because that's how the story is told on Twitter and that's fine.
