That's a pretty extreme case of rounding there, @diceman934.

Also looks like Matthews/Marner will sign shorter term deals at lower cap hits, so events have changed since that point was made.

I'll just reiterate that we'll trade smaller pieces before looking to Kadri as the solution for our cap issues.

Let's remember that it's a one-year problem. Dubas isn't going to make a rash decision based on that. Next year will be tight, then we'll breathe.

Rounding what?

Pookie quoted you in the post above me, from last year apparently. Seems you made reference to paying Kadri $5m when it's actually $4.5m (and although those numbers look close, $500k is a big deal when it comes to next year).

Close... in fairness to Dicey, he made reference to paying A 3C that kind of money.

I don't think he assumed Kadri would be the actual 3C... otherwise of course, he wouldn't have said it ;)

Lol. Pookie is good at attempting to put words into people’s mouth that they never said and changing words and content to support his agenda.

Hence why he is my only poster in my list.

Funny how Pookie's blockers still seem to follow everything he posts, weird.

My apologies @diceman934, looks like Pookie misrepresented what you wrote and forgot to provide adequate context. I guess I should have expected nothing less. Sorry about that.

What’s missing? The direct quote? Linked?

The $5M on a 3C?

Kadri is a 3C no?

I mean I get he would prefer Kadri isn’t the 3C and NEVER would have posted that we couldn’t afford that much for that position had he known he would eventually be talking about Kadri.

But he did.

So where’s the factual inaccuracy?

Well, the flat earth society generally prefers to talk amongst themselves.

But sometimes they monitor the real world to see what’s being said.

I do not follow what he writes hence why he is blocked. A poster called me out on something Pookie said. I have no idea of what it was as clearly seen in this thread. So stop and read before posting nonsense.

You did say we couldn’t afford to pay a third line center that kind of money. While you were referring to Bozak, Kadri is now a third line center making the kind of money you said we couldn’t afford and that was before we signed Tavares.

Yeah he was clearly setting you up and obfuscating your intentions but those were your words.

I'm at the point of blocking his supporters too. Has already begun.

What the hell are you talking about.

You my friend again like your leader are talking words that I wrote out of the context in which they were written. Talking about paying Bozak 5 m to play center and Kadri at 4.5 is a huge difference as one is a 30 goal scorer and the other is not.

Context is your friend.

This is the point.

If we can’t afford to pay a 3C that kind of money, we can’t afford to pay a 3C that kind of money.

FYI his post was in response to a poster saying we should sign Backlund. He didn’t feel we could afford Backlund at that price for a 3C.

Except you didn’t.

You were responding to a poster who said we should sign Backlund. You didn’t want to pay Backlund $5M for a 3C role.

Backlund has 29 Points this season and is +27. Kadri’s production is the same, well except for the Minuses

You were fine with paying Bozak less as your main point was about the dollars for the 3C role.

Production for either Backlund or Kadri did not factor into your proclamation

Context and accuracy are your friends.

You're talking to a guy who thinks anyone who disagrees with him is one guy who has multiple accounts.

He’s also on record as saying “I know you are negative so I discount anything positive you say” so I consider it a positive to not get direct responses ... or PMs again.
