imagine that may be the consensus pick, though.
Because Galchenyuk is also filled with warts. The Devil you Know, man.Consensus on the forum is Tkachuk is going to go too early because people overrate jam and size compared to skill level.
We trade undersized jam for a guy that clearly generates more offense and might even actually play center, and consensus is so-so on the trade.
I really do love Domi as a player, so I get we're all attached, but it's hard for me to see the negatives with this deal.
I didn't want to trade Domi for a 27-29 yo. vet like some were suggesting. This kind of deal is fine by me. Gally is the better player and still young.I'm delighted and can't figure all the sadness/angst, or whatever it is - Domi hasn't even been here that long.
If we had some reason that made trading Domi a necessity, this is the best return I could conceive of for a Domi with his value tanked.
Domi has not been the same since he injured his hand. Like Domi, but I like Gally more. Awhile back when I read that Gally was available I thought the Yotes might trade Strome for him. I would rather give up Domi than Strome. This may end up a good hockey trade for both teams.If we had some reason that made trading Domi a necessity, this is the best return I could conceive of for a Domi with his value tanked.
He was as good as gone from November or December. We'll never know why. But keeping the devil we know obviously wasn't an option.Because Galchenyuk is also filled with warts. The Devil you Know, man.
Most players are traded because they have warts. Most players have warts. When Duke was traded we were all pissed and could not believe why he wasn't given more ice time etc. That trade opened many eyes, and Duke is still having the same problems with Chicago. Someone posted that Domi was a p----. Not sure if that is true or not, but I still wise him success.Because Galchenyuk is also filled with warts. The Devil you Know, man.
Funny you should mention warts. As the panel of NHL Tonight tried to make any sense as to just why Montreal would do this, Kevin Weeks said the organization is always looking for warts. And that they Doan seem to understand all players have warts and teams need to adapt. From there the theme was basically: identify warts and purge. Funny thing is they always lose in the purge, as indicated by their graphic and verbalized by Weeks and Reeder.Because Galchenyuk is also filled with warts. The Devil you Know, man.

No, I make a conscious effort - folks Doan seem to like it and (like Max) I get a kick out of annoying
but it's hard for me to see the negatives with this deal.
This is as good as we could expect in the devil you don't know category. The devil we knew was not an option.
