i'd definitely deal cossa in a deal for a good center. goalies are fickle and cossa is a giraffe on skates right now. all the talent in the world, but he's got a long way to go. teams dont usually deal #1 defensemen or 1-2 centers for a reason. we've got our #1 defenseman... as for bert, he's a great disruptor and a really good player, but he's about to turn 26 and is due to get paid big money after this year. if your timeline to compete is now based on seider/raymond, then the time to move bert to maximize his value is now. he'll be in his 30s when the wings are ready to compete. with his play style and injury history, there's a good chance he's not the same player by then.

harden was even worse! love watching these things blow up in their faces. next up: watching the sixers implode after morey signs harden to a six year extension only to watch him eat himself out of the league halfway through the contract.

the big ten can really pick and choose. oregon and washington seem like no brainers from a football perspective, but im not sure if oregon fits the academic bill. stanford and cal certainly do. kansas brings nothing to the table. vandy has academics but nothing else and would never leave the sec. duke , carolina, and notre dame are the prizes left for the big ten. maybe bringing stanford AND usc adds extra incentive for notre dame to come?

michigan state's finest.

bwaaaa haaa haaa haaa, nets! all for one season of fat ass out of shape james harden!

KD asks for a trade...
-
all of a sudden, sham amateurism doesnt seem so bad...
-
that's also a possibility. then snooty holier-than-thou schools like michigan and notre dame will have decisions to make. i know notre dame will jettison its supposed morals to win. i suspect michigan eventually will too.

the recruiting issues are 90% nil and 10% staff changeover. if um doesnt get off its ass on nil, its fucked. were already seeing the results. honestly, they made a wakeup call like this to get over the stick up their ass about rules. the big ten wont get rid of anyone. they will add, add, and add some more. they'll get to 20-24 and so will the sec. those conferences will strike a deal with the others to give them some cash they can disperse. some will drop football altogether, some will continue to compete at a lower level.

it would take bertuzzi, #8, and maybe zadina or hronek. i think. would you rather keep bert and have a young player on an elc who MIGHT be the next raymond but COULD ALSO be the next zadina? like you, i'm more worried about his attitude issues and how much they'd have to pay him in two years. i'd pass because the price will likely be more than i want to pay plus the aforementioned attitude issues.
-
and you laughed at me when i said the big ten should do this. lol. $$$$$$$$$ rules all. the dominoes are falling and you dont want to get left behind. there will eventually be two conferences and everyone else will be playing for the scraps left by the sec and the big ten. florida state and miami to the sec. maybe arizona?
-
now go get duke, carolina, washington, and notre dame.
-
as someone who has been saying for a long time that the big ten needs to do this: ABOUT TIME.

what would you trade for pierre luc dubois?

Bridges arrested on felony domestic abuse charges. smart move on the verge of free agency.

btw, report from france: lots of tigers' hats. the old english D is pretty popular. stores would have tigers, yankees, red sox, dodgers stuff. and not on tourists either. good to see the tigers hat representin' in the home of high fashion.
-
he'll go in as a tiger. guaranteed.

according to the most readily available metric (dom's gvsa value), a fair trade would be bertuzzi plus our first and second this year to get to #2. it would cost even more to get to #1.
-
it would probably cost you cossa, and bertuzzi, and next years #1.

4 male inductees shouldnt effect the sedin sisters...

javy heating up?

we have a lot of cap space, i dont want to use it by overpaying role players like portis or bagley. if they do sign guys like that, make it short term deals so you can get out of it quickly, or deal them at the deadline.

make him president or advisor to the owner or something.
