Back - spine

Out - spineless
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

By "Back - spine" I'm guessing you mean the guy who stepped in for his teammate and took on Getzlaf despite giving up 3" and 33lbs to the Anaheim captain.

Does Hansen still play for the Vancouver Canucks? I haven't noticed him in a couple months.

Ahhh I just checked... still plays for us. 3G 8 pts and -5 since Jan 1!

He can go.

Sure he can go. But that other guy who we're paying $7M to next year who has similar stats as Hansen since Jan 1, well naw he's gotta stay. What would we do without him???

It would be truly fascinating to find out whether your problems are cognitive, or emotional.

Cognitive. What isn't cognitive is how people give a free pass to the Twins no matter what. It's like "oh it's the Sedins, they're great, let's not move them" despite what they've done. I could care less what they did in the 2011 regular season. Going forward they aren't great. It's funny how someone wants to jettison someone who makes $2.5M for poor production, but someone who makes $7M at the same level of production is acceptable???

Cognitive.
This was much less fascinating than I'd hoped.

Jannik Hansen Regular season: 385 GP… 61 Goals + 90 Assists = 151 points
Daniel Sedin Regular Season: 974 GP… 305 Goals + 496 Assists = 801 Points
Henrik Sedin Regular Season: 1005 GP… 192 Goals + 646 Assists = 838 Points

Jannik Hansen Playoffs: 58 GP…. 5 Goals + 9 Assists = 14 points
Daniel Sedin Playoffs: 96 GP…. 23 Goals + 44 Assists = 67 Points
Henrik Sedin Playoffs: 99 GP… 22 Goals + 52 Assists = 74 Points


You should have gone with: B - Emotional :mrgreen:

I tossed the idea of buying out Garrison instead Booth but I understand buying out Garrison is a bit expensive. Unless by some miracle you could trade Booth for pucks then buyout Garrison.
Dude, it might help if your thread had some explanation, is this what you want to happen, or what you think will happen? :?
Seems like a pretty far-fetched prediction, so we'll see next year how hazy your crystal ball is. :roll:
I don't know why everyone is so confident that players with NTC's can be easily traded, but all of these Edler/Burrows/Higgins trade ideas depend on the player asking to be traded, as GMMG has said he won't be asking NTC'ed players to waive their clauses.

So if you want to trade Higgins & Hansen then who do you plan to bring in as 3rd line wingers?
Steve Bernier?
Tanner Glass?

Jettison Booth. Those are the only changes I think we need to make. Next season we won't be a contender but I think we should be more competitive and if competitive then anything can happen.

If any of the rumoured returns for Kesler and Edler are true I think we should see a quick re-tool.
Yep, HW has it right, Booth probably the only major departure.
He should be bubble-wrapped at this point and sayonara in June.
The parts we have now will be back, hopefully with a good free agent or two pickup.
Possibly Kesler moves if we get the right return

No you just manipulate the stats to suit your latest mongoloid meltdown. You had to have been the co pilot on that short bus . I might be selling you a little short here Pauster but you seem way too crafty to have just been one of the regular passengers.

You've been on this bandwagon for years, even when the twins were winning Art Ross trophies you were telling everyone how much they sucked. It got old a long time ago.

OH. MY. God.

When has Jannik Hansen EVER been at "the same level of production" as the Sedins? :lol:

Oh wot a tangled web you've woven...
