Rumor: Rumour and Proposals Thread: Back on the Subban(d) wagon

[The Bored Man]

What presser? What's happened in the last three hours?

 

[MikeModano9]

I don't see this presser being any good news for Oilers fans.

Most likely he's just going up there to squash these rumours. Who calls a presser before a trade is even completed?

Pretty much. Doing damage control for PK's sake. "We were never trading him etc etc "

Don't look at me as an insider, but my friend was told about the Talbot contract and the Maroon trade before it happened.

They tell me the Oilers offered Nuge Not drai as a counter. 4th. Korps, and Fayne. That's on the Oilers end.

I'd do either. I think we would be taking back a little more salary if Nuge is involved though. Drai if they retain some?

I think so as well.

 

[Cloned]

Wouldn't surprise me. Benning is an idiot, flat out.

Other than MacT, I'm not sure that there is any GM in recent memory that would be dumb enough to spout off about negotiations on another teams player while those negotiations are ongoing.

Just baffling that a person in his position could be that stupid. Love that he's with the Nucks.

"I'm here to announce that the Montreal Canadiens organization will never trade with Mr. Benning again and will take steps to ensure that other managers around the league are not allowed to deal with Mr. Benning in future negotiations."

*drops mic*

 

[s7ark]

Ban hammer? I think so.

I wonder if I can thread ban a mod? I've never tried

 

[NewBoysClub97*]

I think Bergy will deny or just say he is listening to offers on any players.

 

[Seachd]

Yeah, kind of strange that we haven't heard any clue as to what this press conference is about.

 

[s7ark]

What presser? What's happened in the last three hours?

Not much. Slow news day.

 

[OILSLICK94]

Pretty much. Doing damage control for PK's sake. "We were never trading him etc etc "

Probably but why the hell wait this long? Pretty embarrassing, don't treat core star players like that

*drops mic*

Pff... then how could other GMs fleece him? He's like the guy in your hockey pool that takes all oilers.. you like having him around because it helps you

 

[Faelko]

"I'm here to announce that the Montreal Canadiens organization will never trade with Mr. Benning again and will take steps to ensure that other managers around the league are not allowed to deal with Mr. Benning in future negotiations."

*drops mic*

That'd be unfortunate for the rest of the league....

 

[Spawn]

Yeah, kind of strange that we haven't heard any clue as to what this press conference is about.

I imagine it will be like Chiarelli's from earlier today. Just sort of give people an idea of where his head is at.

I really think we'll hear that he's not moving Subban anywhere though.

 

[GMofOilers]

I would be shocked that a deal is made before the draft floor. I would be more then happy if it was though

I would be all in for Subban, give them what they ask for.

could just be typical trade negotiations though too. We would rather nuge then drai to test the waters. Could end either way

 

[Jean Ralphio]

This is probably the standard pre-draft presser for Bergevin, isn't it?

beauty

i see Chia wanting Drais as a core piece.

 

[Jumptheshark]

I wonder if I can thread ban a mod? I've never tried

yes you can

mod can allow himself back in

we had a mod thing in 2003/2004 something like and old Mod Rabi not only got a thread ban--but he got sent to the sin bin--to be fair he was drinking with me at the Maple leaf right before he went on line to post--so he was a bit worse for wear

for those who remember OG Mod Rabi--I saw him about a month ago and he has lost about 100 pounds

I'd be very surprised if he didn't say this regardless of what's going on.

 

[Musashi]

Trade for Subban. Sign Stamkos. Activate the 9M dollar club.

 

[s7ark]

Do not post fake tweet or you will be thread banned.

I would go wild if we got Subban and cleared all of that cap with Draisaitl sticking around

 

[Cloned]

I don't know if I can handle 24 more hours of this.

 

[AddyTheWrath]

I'm so excited... Which probably means nothing will come to fruition.
