newton would be a good replacement for mcneill if they cant re-sign him.

that's just the type of stupid hiring the hornets would make. or the pistons.

two crazy endings. knicks got away with one.

but if all it takes to go up and get a guy they want is 2 4ths next year? then by all means, do it.

would you go from 29 to 36 for two 4th round picks? i wouldnt.

watching divencenzo make threes makes me even more upset at this stupid front office that spent $20 million of cap space on JOE HARRIS' CORPSE.

how is miggy not a generational hitter? because he's not albert pujols? that's a really small generation.

pujols being better than miggy doesnt mean miggy isnt a great player. he stuck around too long and let himself go. does miggy get a statue? i think he does. does verlander? probably.

0 chance they take two 2025 4ths to trade back 6 spots in round one.

i wonder if the lions will retire stafford's number?

there are others, i think. maybe the wings will join a different one?

then you'd get into a nice peak vs longevity argument. especially with greenberg vs trammell/whitaker.

only played 3 full seasons. he ranks 29th in AV. Suh is 24th.

yes but this is the tigers. lol.

another easy top 3: cobb kaline gehringer

barry is the only easy choice. calvin? joe schmidt? lem barney? night train lane? stafford? i'd probably go with barry, calvin, and alex karras. if you go by approximate value: barry 149 stafford 133 wayne walker 124 lem barney 122 alex karras 122 **** lebeau 106 lomas 99 calvin 94 herman moore 92 raiola 89

if you go by win shares: laimbeer 98 lanier 91 joe d 86 isiah 80 chauncey 73 ben wallace 65 drummond 60 grant hill 60 tayshaun 57 larry foust 57 dave bing 56 rip 54 (win shares overrates rebounds, imo)

isiah thomas joe dumars bill laimbeer

if you go by point shares, the top wings are: gordie 215 lidstrom 212 stevie 167 sawchuck 142 delvecchio 124 red kelly 115 datsyuk 111 zetterburg 109 sergei 104 lindsay 90 jimmy howard! 90 marcel pronvost 87

the top 3 are easy. #4 is more debateable.

their season ticket base fell to ~9k. that's not enough to sustain the team in winnipeg and with the perennial canadian currency issue. tater, youre a romantic. money wise, the jets are a prime candidate to move and winnipeg is too small to sustain them much longer.

do you consider a 30% decline in season tickets a success?

the minimum games requirement had zero to do with that. nothing.

https://thehockeynews.com/news/reaction-are-the-winnipeg-jets-in-danger-of-relocating Winnipeg has an attendance problem. And it can’t be ignored. Nearly 13 years after the Winnipeg Jets sold out 13,500 season ticket packages in 17 minutes, the Jets are filling just 87.4 percent of their 15,325-seat arena on a nightly basis. In an interview with The Athletic’s Chris Johnston, Chipman revealed that their season ticket base has dwindled to just under 9,500 — a 27 percent decline over the last three years. For a while, the Winnipeg Jets have been the feel-good story of the NHL. Their whiteouts are iconic, and the club is similar to the Green Bay Packers of the NFL — a small-market team engulfed and supported by passion. But as we’re seeing with Chipman’s address, sometimes passion and love for a team isn’t enough. If they continue to struggle with putting people in seats — the Jets could very well leave again

90% of it. ask the nordiques.
