I remember when Red_Man used a comparator that didn't make sense. Sharpe is a winger, was 33 when he was traded and Blackhawks were up against the cap. They had to trade him, the Avs don't have to trade Duchene for anything less than they are asking. Say more dumb shit though.

The Rangers are presently on pace for 54 wins on the season. That would be a new franchise record.
They're in a wild card spot.

I take the Jim Halpert approach and ask for a pay decrease. That way I always win. So a win-win....win

What's the tiebreaker in this? Games played?

Nobody has more respect for Red Man than I do.
But yeah, Red Man is right that the value will be lower than that, but the components will be there in some way: Young d-man + prospect + pick.
Depending on how good the primary component is (the young defender) will determine the quality of the other pieces. I just thought the Sharp comparison was silly.
It was more a comment on the absurd prices that come around the deadline and they will accept less, if you think they're actually getting a top player, top prospect and first rounder for either, than you haven't paid attention to past big player trades. Even if they wait until the off season, no team is moving a Chabot or Sergachev + for either of those players, especially with how valuable high end defenseman have become. I get start the bidding high, but you're getting close to the deadline and not adjusting, same with Arizona and Hanzal, no one is paying that price. Yea the cap opens up during the summer, but so do other trades and internal roster moves, it's not a guarantee of a higher price.
Watch Bergevin move AGally, Juulsen, 1st + for a shitty Duchene package
Games played is the first tie breaker, yes. All things being equal, ROW becomes the primary tie breaker.

The mental gymnastics that go on when people want a:
Well, we still have Duchene. The horrors.
- top line player
- Canadian Olympic player
- in his prime
- on an amazing contract
- who doesn't need to be traded
Well, we still have Duchene. The horrors.

And then there's that whole entitlement thing too
He is sure other teams will be willing to give up on key players just because they have to, I mean why wouldn't they do it, it's the Habs man, and your team won't make the playoffs this year anyways so might as well give him everything you have because his team is important and yours isn't.
Pretty confident this is exactly what's going to happen if they go for Duchene. AGally is going the way of Subban, of that, I'm certain. Wouldn't blame the kid a but for signing an offers sheet this summer if he is still even a Hab by then.

STOP YELLING
Bergevin never went for the big homerun on trade deadline so I don't see why he would make a stupid ass trade and lose Galchenyuk++ for Duchene this year. The price for Hanzal is also absurd, i'm not worried, he'll pass as he always does. They even said that Tampa was looking for a 1st for Brian fucking Boyle
if anything we should be worried about the lack of sellers and why we're not going to get any reinforcement

But but Vanek!
lol hope for what? the Cup?
I meant it the other way around, as in our team is fucked but I fugged it up in the way I wrote it
so i'll just stick with it, we're winning the cup
I agree about Therrien and the team, but trading Galchenyuk to land Duchene is so Bergevin that I'll be shocked if it doesn't happen.

Like Winnipeg, who are nearing year 7 of their 5 year plan.
That extra year of his deal is the killer.
