Maybe 16 knew 34 was cooked

Sure. I am spinning. 2016 doesn't seem that long ago.

Haha, fuck. I hate it here.

All of it adds to the mess. Tree has been bad, no doubt..but what if the 34, 16 signed the 8 year contracts out of entry level that apparently they wanted to sign..tons of money left for Hyman. Maybe less picks spent, meaning more young players now. It's all been horribly mismanaged.

Unless they hit #1 this year I guess

I can't believe this is how it all played out.
Like, five years of illrelevance probably to get back to a hopeful spot.

It's hard for me not to look big picture. Trading Naz, letting Hyman walk. Fucking up all of the big contracts. Trading every pick for middling guys.
It feels pretty dark around this team.

There is an access worry, and then also a 'don't be mean, you'll scare him away in FA' thing too. It's a joke.
Is the injury chronic? Is there a surgery that could improve him? Is the allure of.olympics and 4 nations preventing him from doing whats best for his club? The kid gloves are insane here

We're cooked!

I dont understand the 'no hall' arguements. On top of what you point out, he is likely to end up a top 25 goal scorer of all time, w a shot at top 20.. and he is going to easily hit the top 50 in points. Original 6 captain, no.1 pick and runner up for a hart trophy.

At least when you spend you money on superstars, you get superstar production. Now we have sunk money on a bunch of replacement level players. Not the best

They never gave up the slot like this last year.
