GDT: The 2020 TDL Thread: Part II

[Joey Bones]

I have zero idea what the Islanders are doing, lololol.

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

Some of the hate here is laughable. wow

 

[NoQuitInNewMexico]

 

[Off Sides]

Kreider aging out to be like Parise would be a good scenario.

 

[Matt4776]

All I see

Enjoy this feeling of joy in February.

Cause we sure as hell aint gonna have that feeling in June anytime soon.

That’s a Bruins move for sure

Some euro for big tough Nick Ritchie

ook forward to playing Boston in the 1st round of the playoffs.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Sucks.

I wanted Ritchie here before he breaks out.

Boston building a monopoly on young Ducks poised for a breakout with good underlying numbers

 

[Joey Bones]

Bizznasty is a great act!!

You know how many times I saw this exact post on ChiefsPlanet after we traded for Clark and signed Mathieu?

A lot.

So in the past 9 months, we have seen Parise and Lucic get traded. I don't want to hear excuses of why Staal or Lundqvist can't be moved.

Consider what they're taking back. I'm sure they could trade Staal for Ladd, if that's what you're looking for.

Signing Kreider does not mean that we are all in now. It just means we see him as a vital piece of our future over the next 4 teams and that he will be one of the veterans who will help groom our young players.

Guys like Kakko, Kravtzov, and Gauthier are the future and can all learn from his experience.

All three are big bodied players different skill sets but similar big bodied guys. His experience can go a long way for their development.

Mean while he will also contribute and keep the chemistry going the KZB line has

So we can get waxed by them?

Yeah me too

 

[duhmetreE]

I want Brodin and Skjei swapped out somehow

The KZB line is getting broken up in the summer because the Rangers just handed Kreider a f*** load of money

 

[mas0764]

Hank's done here, quite obviously.

That's where they are getting some of the money to fund this signing, clearly.

Give me a break.

The cap structures in the NFL and NHL are 100% different. Barring a compliance buyout, you can't get out of contracts for free in the NHL.

Further, the Chiefs were SB Contenders this year. They should have been making win-now moves. I don't see that situation at all being analogous to the situation we're in- even not taking into consideration the difference in league structures.

lol I was going to say. Those contracts have been traded for other atrocious contracts. Not quite a get out of jail card

 

[Bob Richards]

Parise is 35

I've had it in my head that he's been 29 for like 7 years now

No one cares about the Chiefs.

 

[EpicDing]

Let's not forget Georgiev's good record against the Islanders is probably why he's starting.

The reactions are certainly analogous

 

[Blueblood9]

Parallels are eerie I won’t lie.

Except for the fact that our prospects are better and we argually have better talent around our super star but yes very similar

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

He's the same age as Hugh Jessiman #mindBlown

 

[apoptygma]

A 26 year old with 1 more year at his contract? That is surely getting a nice rise in the summer of 2021. We got some cheap talent now, but that wont last long at all.

Someone is going to win like a physics prize by discovering the Minnesota Wild aren’t real
