Have you ever said anything positive? You must be a horribly unhappy person in your life. You are always so negative about everything! It's actually incredibly sad.

Dude is the definition of someone with a agenda and lets bias cloud most of his hockey analysis.

I have no idea why so many people still respond to him.

What's interesting is, the Avs don't really have any good puck moving dmen anymore.

LOL

Woah, giving that a like as I would have missed that gem otherwise.

Barrie is a good player but will totally be Toronto's new whipping boy. Lol he was a whipping boy in Colorado. Can't imagine how much Toronto will hammer on his mistakes.

 

[Sempiternal]

Great trade for the Leafs. They got rid of the on-ice problem child and upgraded their defense.

Dubas is proving to be a very good GM.

EJ probably has more value considering Barrie is basically a 1 year rental.

That was not message here before Kadri was not worth Barrie and hes worth EJ, who was older and second pairing dman

Barrie DID get away from whipping boy status for the latter part of this season and the playoffs.

However yes, I would wonder sometimes if someone slipped horse tranqs into his Gatorade over the last few years.

Gotcha, I thought it was Landry-Mack- rant and then I thought Compher and Neto were the ones they tested with Mack-rant

They did do that as well. When the Avs were desperate to find scoring outside of the top line, they tried everyone with Mack. He even saw ice time with Dries....

Can't be any worse than they hammered Gardiner, and even with Gardiner it took 8 years for it to get really bad.

 

[Neutrinos]

Kadri scored only 2 more goals than Barrie this season, and Barrie had 15 more points, albeit in 5 more games

 

[joe dirte]

LOL

okay? Who exactly has proven themselves as a good PMD? the next best dman put up 27 points. I don't know who you think is a good PMD, but they clearly don't have a single other dman that has shown they can translate it into production.

@Machinehead

Don’t get me wrong. I’m not completely downplaying the value of analytics. They are definitely a great tool to be used in aiding player valuations. I’m just saying that relying on them alone, without the context of visuals are often misleading, and the argument for Kergoot’s defensive prowess here is a great example of that.

Part II is up.

Closed.
