Kreider contract had no impact on getting Lafreniere.
Trouba's contract is true though.
Not sure that every UFA situation should be approached with the thought that you may get the first overall draft pick.
That's not what I am saying. Just pointing out that by not signing Trouba we would have likely ended up in a different position in the standings and would have likely lost the lottery due to that. That's how the Butterfly affect works. It has nothing to do with the original intentions.
The trade for Trouba came at a rate that was impossible to refuse. And contract is and was maker rate.
I am not making argument of whether or not they should have made the deal. We are just talking about hypotheticals and scifi crap here. If we didn't sign Trouba, we probably don't have Lafreniere because of butterfly effect. I am not a fan of the Trouba contract, but I recognize this. I'm not saying the rangers signed signed him for the purpose of a higher draft pick. That would be silly. That right is reserved for Jack Johnson.
I have to point out the alternative to signing Kreider is likely trading him. But even giving him the contract affects how he plays vs how he would've played without the contract.
The butterfly effect is often cited as a butterfly flapping its wings and causing a tsunami (somehow) bc even the teeeeeny tiniest thing has unintended consequences so I strongly suspect giving kreider that contract and keeping him certainly should fall into butterfly effect

The other day he was a massive AH to me for no reason. Someone else pointed out it's basically his default.
So it's kinda funny the next time I see trueblue in a convo it's this one where being sarcastic and dismissive is of such paramount importance that it clouds his ability to properly interpret the conversation he's wading into. Leaving you to have to explain you're not making a certain argument when it should be plainly obvious...
twice btw. You explained yourself twice and it's still questionable if it got through
Haha I didn't even realize it was the same person that I was repeating myself to. It's funny, I was just an interesting hypothetical and somehow it turned into me having to defend it.
This typo makes me think of the meme gif where the one dude throws up the peace symbol and then fades away (name is Nilesey Niles apparently)
Haha. The world could have used someone like me. What could have been.

Rodrigues needs to eat a fist or five if he plays in NY this week.

Look at you being the voice of reason.
Buuuuttt... If he's being sent home for further evaluation, that usually means bad news.
If it was a broken arm would they really send him out again for another shift after the hit?
You’d know if you had a broken arm, immediately. You wouldn’t be able to hold your stick!

I’d guess ribs. He got right in the chest and looked like he got the wind knocked out of him pretty badly

Obviously, it had to be Chytil or Miller that got injured, as they were both vastly outperforming expectations.
This is what I thought as well. Probably more likely a sprain. My guess is he'll be day-to-day for the next 2 weeks or so.
