Apparently you haven't been in the Boedker trade threads. Most sharks fans actually wanted at least a 3rd rounder even with zero retentionMost Sharks fans would have been happy to get anything for Boedker without retaining salary.

Ummmmm all I stated wasThis is ridiculous. You are trying to save face here. Let's just say that it's not easy for Hoffman. And not as easy as a break-up email. Why was Hoffman traded if it's as easy as breaking up with her?
At least I know my Sabres won’t finish in the basement again.
False.
Look it up.
Over his last 4 seasons with Arizona and the Avs he put up 156 points in 255 games. That is a 50.16 point pace.
Arguing Boedker isn't a 50 point player on bad teams is to argue in bad faith.
Now, you can certainly argue that given the situation he was in in San Jose lowers his value significantly. And hence, that it is bad value.
But it is not possible to argue in good faith that the gap between Boedker and Hoffman is enormous. I mean, for goodness sake, over the last 2 seasons (Boedker's worse seasons) his ES points per 60 is 1.71. Hoffman's is 1.81.
The "real" gap between Boedker and Hoffman is significantly smaller than the boxscore stats indicate. Hoffman is, and almost certainly always will be, a much bigger PP producer. That is the actual gap between the two.
Peace bond says incidents were dating back to November, so this is when Karlsson was aware. Numerous ex sens players wife said they werent surprised. So either the team knew and tried to sweep it under the rug, or they didnt know and shockingly oblivious to everything. They had to have known she was a massive headache, maybe not specifically she was this pyscho
You're a win short there.I view the trade as a win-win-win.
San Jose clears cap space for Tavares/Kovalchuk and nets some good picks.
Florida gets a top 6 winger for essentially nothing.
Ottawa gets rid of a locker room issue/cancer and replaces him with a similar (albeit slightly worse) player.
What a clueless post. 28 year old has never scored even 30 goals in his career who plays like Dany Heatley. Can you name any player in NHL history to never score 30 goals by the age of 28, and then score 40 in a season?Quite possibly one of the worst trades in the modern NHL. In the same ballpark as Seguin/Eriksson and Hall/Larsson. All Hoffman had to do was dump his girl and announce it publicly with an apology. Then he would be worth a 1st rounder minimum. Hell, Evander Kane got a 1st rounder twice. Never seen such a knee jerk reaction in my life. Then San Jose wastes the gift that was handed to them. Watch him score 40 in Florida.
