Lightning & Redwings Deal

[PsychoticPondGoons]

:iatp:

Daddy has a big plan. It's a friggin onion with layer upon layer of complexity man! Never doubt a Flyer guy JD. :toast: :thumbsup:

If we count straight pt totals changing hands :DET-NHL: is the Winner hands down gents. In my book, Brett Connolly alone would've bought B.Smith but that's my book on these kids. Then you got to think Bolts are paying for Alex Stalock (Nemi's handcuff) with old man backstop Nick Backstrom AND Marian Gaborik which is a high price but it's all a matter of opinion. I always thought Stalock was a depth guy but maybe Daddy has the inside scoop.  :disco:

Don't piss in their cornflakes. Let them build. Let them build. haha

[PigsRule]

Hmmmm... let me get back to you guys on this one.

I'm going to V-E-T...











:iatp: They paid. They play. Have fun with your new players boys! :toast:

just because I wouldnt make the deal doesnt mean it shouldnt pass. after what TB gave up to land Gabby, i think there's more value going one way. i thonk TB wouldve been better served retaining Mike Smith as a backup than ending up with Stalock.

The Tampa construction zone is busy and the rebuild in full swing  :toast:

I don't see this as a balanced trade and it hurts the Tampa franchise. More importantly it sets a bad benchmark for future trades in this league.

A Red Wing connoisseur trading away Brenden Smith is a statement of where Smith's value lays and similar to where I have him pegged.

As for Alex Stalock who will turn 28 years old this season he has never turned in what most of us would consider a successful season at a lower level or important tournament.

It takes 3 Vetos to void a trade. Count this as a statement vote and Veto #1.

I'm going to leave this open another day or so given the comments and the 1 veto.
I think everyone except Ripper, Hockeyfreak6000 have voted. But someone might change their vote. We will see.

I didn't know I had a vote, thought there was a T.C. I usually only vote when I don't approve.

I must say I appreciate the honesty of the TC, and most of all the vote of confidence shown in me by most.
No one likes a veto, but hey if it happens and thats your honest feeling, well thats why we have a TC.

Try to understand this is year 5 of the league, has :TBL: ever done anything but donate $$$ to the pot?
I aim to change that. Maybe not this year, but certainly less than 5 years. I gotta do that my way gents.
Daddy loves a challenge.  :toast: :beer: :toth:
