  1. the bet is ausar continues to grow and turns into more of what his brother is. ausar as ball handler and offense initiator. it just bugs me that they're willing to go so high on duren and are apparently not even thinking about moving him. in the end, it means they move stewart, which should be enticing to lots of teams.
  2. form is fleeting, talent is not. davies and david are really good, especially davies. but when your best player is a right back? youre probably not winning a world cup.
  3. ok....yurov, denoyers, two firsts and a second? or yurov, iginla, two firsts and a second? the problem will be that minny may not want to part with wellstedt and not to a western conference team.
  4. canada has two world class players and....yeah. they are playing at home but i would make them 50/50 to get out of that group. should be down to whomever wins the bosnia game.
  5. wellstedt to utah larkin to minnesota denoyers, stramel, two minnesota firsts and a utah second to detroit.
  6. larkin and cossa for iginla, denoyers, and a first!
  7. we refused to pay the bribes to fifa. rahm was our mayor then and he's running for president now (believe it or not), so there is a puff piece in the athletic about how he turned down fifa because of all their ridiculous rules that will end up costing each host city millions. in reality we spent all our bribe money trying to get the olympics so there was none left to bribe fifa. i can still remember seeing sweden v russia in the silverdome in 1994.
  8. well....maybe if the US were any good... but they are playing on home soil, in an easy group, and in an expanded tournament. and this time they have a real coach. every team with a pulse should make it out of their group. after that its a crap shoot.
  9. would you give up a first this year for paul george?
  10. even better, this summer is all about soccer talk!
  11. how many of those teams were owned by chris illitch?
  12. i agree with the snark behind your statement, and i agree with the literalness in your statement. i think yzerman has done a poor job and deserves to be fired.
  13. you talk about him like he's not a team legend and he's just an ordinary, regular ol' nhl gm. if anything, he'd move upstairs.
  14. thinking big picture, minny should be calling everyone in the league trying to get a third team to make this work. if yzerman traded larkin to new jersey, quinn hughes is almost as good as gone. playing with his brothers AND his best bud? see ya.
  15. probably depends on the contract terms. there might be something in there that could void the deal, or be contingent on him being able to play.
  16. stirtz seems like duncan robinson. only smaller.
  17. when adam silver is your gm, anything is possible.
  18. if he goes to edmonton its either in a salary dump for nurse that's part of a larger trade, or for howard or matty savoie.
  19. 32 pts 8 rebs 6 assts and 3 blocks. pretty good for a french pussy. once san antonio figures out it can win, no one is going to beat them. not sure if that's this year or not. castle/harper/wemby are too good.
  20. so you like new york dicks over french pussies. who knew? 😉
  21. how about now?
  22. well.....if they move cossa to edmonton that opens up a spot for a goalie...
  23. legacy means more when they get older and see that they wont be young and invincible forever. larkin still isnt that old. also, some players have different priorities, some are wiser than others, and some are dumb. i dont where larkin fits. also, yzerman made all those playoffs early in his career when only the last place team missed out. and he played in the norris division when it was probably the worst division in hockey in the 80s. not to discredit stevie, he was the best player on those teams by far and one of the best offensive players in the league, but the rest of the team other than maybe gallant and ogrodnick for a while and then probert, was largely ****.
  24. the spurs are so talented. the only thing holding them back from multiple championships will be de'aaron fox and youth.
  25. The most obvious answer is that larkin wants to play with his buddies and he wants to win a stanley cup. he doesnt see either happening in detroit any time soon so he asks to be traded.
