oh give it a rest. he was on waivers. there's nothing vindictive about claiming a player on waivers. I don't send tokarski down because I know someone will claim him.

You likely only did this to try and juice tony for assets.

You're a loser

[Lee]

I did it because SJS have a poor goaltending situation and Grosenick is on a one way deal next year. I am keeping an AHL goaltender on my roster all year to maybe make some profit next year.

You're hurting my feelings by calling me a loser.

[KapG]

No one likes you here

[Lee]

The feeling is mutual. I'm not here to make friends.

[KapG]

Just to be a little rat fuck eh?

[Lee]

If you can't handle a bit of shit talking and competitiveness maybe you should be the one to leave. I've spent years building my team to a competitive point and I don't piss around with political correct horse shit. I'll do what I can to make my team better and you can bugger off.

[KapG]

i can handle shit talking, I just can't handle your bullshit anymore which is why I call you out on it on the regular.

You're vermin

[dave1959]

is this the first time someone has claimed a goaltender off waivers??

Maybe you should take the pacifier, Tony already has his bottle.

[Lee]

I'm "vermin". That is fantastic lol. For claiming someone put on waivers, when people clearly know that anyone on waivers is free for the taking. I didn't put Tokarski on because I knew he would be claimed.

Bad me. Vermin. Scoundrel. Vagrant.

Fuck.

Imbecile is a great word for you.

[KapG]

You think this is only about this?


You're so fucking dumb. You've been an asshole around this league for the last 3 years or so

[Lee]

I've done what I had to do to take my team from an actual, literal scrap heap and brought it to relevance.

[Handsome&FairMike]

Ya lee makes a point re: backstrom though he has little value going forward. Just the principle behind the move is brutal. 28 other guys coulda put in a claim but they didn't. But hearing about all the shenanigans he's pulled in the past I'm not surprised. The guy is pretty ruthless. Guess you can commend him for it but definitely not a likeable characteristic.

More than anything feel bad for tony but he has to grow a pair and realize SJS is just a rough goalie situation and this league is getting more and more competitive. He's got the brunt end of it but really grosenick isn't that good and dell is likely gonna pass him so not a big loss. Hopefully he gets over it.

[dave1959]

isn't the rule that the player is on waivers until 9pm the following day??

bump

anyone??

[Lee]

I'm not trying to be likable. I'm trying to win.

Ruthless? Absolutely.

And yes, I do realize it sucks for Tony.

As far to the point of trading him back to Tony, and then Tony having to expose him to waivers to send him back down again: Yes. He would have to. And I would claim him again. That would force Tony to keep him on his roster. You see, Tony is a competitor in the Eastern conference. The same conference as I. Him having Grosenick on his roster takes away a slot for a waiver ineligible player. I currently have quite a few waiver exempt players, so having Grosenick on my roster really doesn't matter to me. It may hurt Tony. It's a competitive advantage. As Mike said, I'm not just "holding onto" Grosenick for Tony.

Instead. I'll hold onto him to see if his value will increase.

anyone??

Nope, waivers go to noon, just like in the real NHL.

[The BBKL Insider]

isn't the rule that the player is on waivers until 9pm the following day??

bump

anyone??

noon

[dave1959]

so, noon the following day?

[Lee]

If I were to waive a player right now, they would not go on waiver until noon tomorrow. they would be on waiver until noon the following day.

[dave1959]

so, Grosenick is still on waivers then until noon tomorrow, right?
