I guess the problem is that you all see Poulin as an asset? I looked at him as $3.4M in dead cap. He is not a back up with Halak and then Johnson in the net.Next problem is your assuming Upshall isn't worth anything because of his Nhl role. In this league he scores vey well. I am fine with the Veto but think a few of you misread this deal completely.
I had a few friends reach out, who understand I may not be the most liked GM, but appreciate my honesty, I keep it real & raw, too raw for some. Thank you friends.To clarify, this league punishes those above the cap threshold..avoiding going over the cap this year, while fielding the best 2014/15 was the main objective, dealing from a position of strength (Goalie) to open up the ability to strengthen other areas was paramount. Having built such a young team, next years draft has less value to FNHL , trading a 3rd string Goalie with a $3.4m tag & $5m resign value allowing for a more diverse and deep roster this season is worth a late 1st imo.Hearing everyones opinons, agree or disagree, I appreciated the approvals of those who thought I took a beating on this deal, but allowed me to do me. It means alot to some of us to have the freedom to GM even if we appear to lose on a deal. That's the beauty of fantasy. Im willing to side bet that Upshaw, as much as he sucks will out point Poulin this season..but even if he didnt I cant play 3 Goalies. No matter! Thanks Ripper for the talks bud, & good luck.
Hey, i will reverse my veto and approve if Daddy really wants it that way.He paid his cash into the pot. I still think its bad for TB on different levels but hey he might just know something we dont about the players hes shipping off to StLooooo.
