Those 10 days were the most enjoyable on this board in a long time. Wonder why that would be?

Re: Don;t like what I see from Steen so far...
He does make a good point, that Brayden Schenn a bust at #5. Schenn only has the 6th most points in his Draft Class. He let some nobody named O’Reilly, who was picked 33rd Overall, surpass him.Army's Mom wrote: ↑03 Jul 2026 10:47 amNot all top 5 picks are top 5 picks. Top 5 picks cease to be Top 5 picks the instant they are allowed to leave the team that drafted them. Then they become failed top 5 picks.

I expected Steen to bring in a focus on the future. A focus on bringing in elite talent that will culminate in names on a Cup.
This would be in contrast to Army who has been trying to ride off into the sunset on a white horse, not a dirty tired old nag. The focus on the immediate was obvious and almost understandable given the circumstances.
And what do we see? Steen is F__ING carbon copy of Armstrong. Every move cements us to the middle of the pack. Our BEST, MOST CHEERED moves are the ones where we SUBSTRACT players off the team. And McTavish? McTavish is a younger Kevin Hayes. A guy brought in from another team's discard pile to HIDE OUR DEFICIENCIES AT 2C ASAP!!!!!! Not to win a CUP with!!! Nope? It's a CYA move to make sure that management's cash register keeps ringing.
Welcome to Army 2.0, Sports Fans. Now prepare for Hayes 2.0. Dvorsky 2.0. Bolduc 2.0. Kyrou 2.0. Palm Trees 2.0.
… couldn’t even win a Cup on his original team…

Some people like to hear alternative opinions. You should try it.

Haven't been on here for a few days and just now saw this too. It was amazing that people could actually read a thread and not have to look this moron's idiocy for a few days. He's like a cockroach that could survive a nuclear explosion!!!

It's almost like you've got that puppet ASOFF sitting on your lap speaking for him!!Army's Mom wrote: ↑03 Jul 2026 20:20 pmTo be fair, he tried moving them a while ago. Basically, it only counts as a top 5 pick of it counts as a top 5 pick, and doesnt count if Smelly says so.PregnantNun wrote: ↑03 Jul 2026 19:53 pmThis is the biggest moving of goalposts that I have ever seen.

Not all TOP5 picks are great. Some are just good (e.g. Schenn).
By and large, the ONLY TOP5 picks that become available are FAILED TOP5 picks (e.g. Schenn).
Occasionally, TOP5 picks that are great became available due to GM stupidity (e.g. Pietrangelo, Marner).
I would bet 4th of July that McTavish is a FAILED TOP5 pick, good but not great. He will do for a team like the Blues, that only cares about "staying competitive".
What I call a TOP5 pick is a player that a team would NEVER CONSIDER trading, at least not until he is over the hill.
In other news, I am always correct because I dont count any of the times I am incorrect. You're lucky to be in the presence of someone as infallible as I think I am!
THAT was hilarious A'sM!! Keep 'em coming!!!
