Uh, you’re the one saying the Oilers players aren’t valuable because the team is bad. If anyone is throwing teams under the bus, it’s you.
You’re not an NHL GM, so how would you know what fair value is?
And I was really not wanting to pull this out, but you’re irritating so why not.
Columbus exposed a 40 goal scorer with Selke caliber defence in the expansion draft. If misidentifying player value is all you care about, care to comment on that little nugget? After all an NHL GM did it, so what us plebs think about it surely doesn’t matter, right?
So players dont play the games anymore ? It just happens by magic ?
My stomach hurts from laughter.
Dont worry. Some day you wont have so many bust
Why feed? Obvious is obvious..
McDavid sucks by his logic.. becaue he plays for Oil
Sure, the players play the game.
See what I did there, actually answered your question?
You didn’t answer my question. As usual.
Hypothetically, Winnipeg is a better team than Columbus. They offer Tyler Myers and Matthieu Perreault for Seth Jones when Columbus gets eliminated. By the laws of RusevVodka, does Columbus have to accept? Or does your ‘your players have poor value because your team is bad’ policy only extend to Ohio’s borders?
I dont have to be an NHL gm to know what fair value is, they NHL GMs have done that for me in trades
And Columbus had to get rid of someone. When you have talent to make the playoffs 3 of 4 years you're bound to lose talent. The facts just say so.
It just extends to teams like Edmonton who's players get severely overrated.
So GMs can’t make mistakes then?
Karlsson has more goals than Wennberg has points. Even you can’t defend that.
You’re saying if Kekalainen could have a do-over, he wouldn’t change who he gave up?
That doesn’t make any sense.
Again you’re defaulting to the bad teams players are overrated argument?
What do you think about Jack Eichel? Sebastian Aho? OEL? Bo Horvat? Carey Price? Johnny Gaudreau?
Man those guys teams are bad. Those players must suck.
Let me know when he sniffs 70 pointsUh, what I think the guy (who I'm not sure IS a CBJ fan) is trying to say is that Jones is worth more than Draisaitl, and that Wennberg and Dubois are vastly superior to Puljujarvi.
It makes ZERO sense to hype up Puljujarvi's supposed potential and completely downplay Atkinson.
And Dubois is not much worse than Draisaitl, right now. Its gonna be even closer in 1-2 years. Now check the cap hits...
Hf posters who never worked in the NHL can know more than NHL GM, yes that's correct
That’s not what I asked you. Stop dodging questions you don’t like the answers to.
Dance goalpost dance !!
We are talking about Edmonton, not other teams.
That is a more than quality answer to your question
See my earlier post about supporting arguments. It applies here.
Those teams have not made the playoffs in a long time either. Are their players overrated?
Okay then, you’re clearly a well educated hockey fan, why don’t you tell me what exactly about Leon Draisaitl makes him overrated? Be specific.
No, it isn’t. As usual you just dodge the question and post ridiculous rhetoric when you don’t like the question you’re asked.
OP wasn’t offering Dubois, they offered Wennberg, who barely had more points than Strome.
Most Draisaitl deals offered by Oiler fans are for assets like a signed Karlsson or a signed Ekman-Larsson.
*refers back to OP*
Huh. Strangely bereft of superstar #1 defencemen. That’s weird.
17 yrs in the league only 4 playoff appearance guess you should know a lot about losingIt's funny that you think its argument shifting when the reality is it's just proving you wrong. Just like when I said when someone makes a point proving you wrong you throw shade at other teams, like bringing up the down year blue jackets.
It's a down year when a team makes the playoffs 3 out of 4 years. Not missed the playoffs 3 out of 4 years. Theres a massive undispitable difference.
Rebuilding is a couple year project, not 10+ years after 4 1st overall picks and still cant make the playoffs, that's just not having talent.
Again, you're literally "ignoring" Cam Atkinson again. You know, the more valuable piece coming from the CBJ in the OP. Going back to the beginning of the thread, we have people "hyping" Puljujarvi's potential "value", while literally ignoring the concept of Atkinson being involved at all. Even though you continue to downplay him, HE is worth significantly MORE than Wennberg. About the same difference between Dubois and Puljujarvi.
The difference between Dubois and Draisaitl is smaller.
Good luck acquiring OEL. We'll keep Jones and Atkinson.
Oh like when you throw other teams. Players and GMs that have nothing whatsoever to do with the oilers.
Maybe have less of an agenda
Why are the goalpost moving non stop with your arguments ? We are talking oilers , no one else
I get you are embarrassed they lose all the time but that doesnt make them good players. That's how you get stuck trading halls and only getting larssons back
17 yrs in the league only 4 playoff appearance guess you should know a lot about losing
Why are you moving the goalposts non stop? We’re talking Leon Draisaitl, not Hall or Larsson.
How.
Specifically.
Is.
Leon.
Draisaitl.
Overrated?
