yeah right, cause Darling was valued like a Vezina candidate in that trade rather than a struggling starter?

I also wonder about me fleecing new GMs.. but maybe I'm just having bad memory.

You fleeced him without question.

Well I was talking about the Vegas GM, who was new, whom you took to the cleaners. You sold him as a vezina candidate when there was ZERO reason to. The dude sucked then, sucks now and will always suck. The only thing saving Vegas from this being 100% brutal is the lottery protection and the fact that he'll never EVER get vezina votes haha.

oh, in insight of course, given what happened and transpired with Darling after the trade, not because he was valued like a Vezina contender in that trade.

Don't think Vegas GM had just joined the league either

Yeah okay - you keep telling yourself that you didn't know you were killing this deal. Anyone who thought Darling was good at hockey after that last season is part of a very small minority.

Darling for a 1st isn't terrible given what some of these unproven rookie goalies are getting atm in our league.

mmh, no. Having a clause doesn't mean he was sold/paid as a Vezina candidate lol.

The dude sucked then, sucks now and will always suck.

unfortunately turns out the dude was/is back having issues. He certainly didn't suck with Chicago when he appeared to be over his personal issues.

It is when the dude just put up a .888 sv% and looked horrible doing so (not that you can look good).

Then why include the clause - for shits and giggles?

He sucked then as well. It was just masked under a good team in front of him before the wheels had fallen off in Chicago.

my peace of mind. Didn't cost him anything, so not sure why the big deal

No Crawford did not suck, but he didn't belong in conversations as top 3 goalies in the NHL.

Peace of mind haha. Oh boy. Andrew Ladd is just as likely to win the rocket as Darling to win a vezina. Maybe I'll include it for my peace of mind if I ever trade him away.

To be fair, mik got 1 first for darling, and then paid the equivalent of around 4 firsts for dubnyk. He values goalies highly and is willing to pay a lot for one that suits his team, but he also doesn't want to give one away he believes may have untapped potential.

And the vezina clause is meaningless cuz he didn't rebound, so its pointless to debate.



...Justin faulk is a pretty good player. Any offers yet?

Just the public ones I've made

And the public ones I've made apparently lol!

CasperX22 wroteCOLONAnd the public ones I've made apparently lol!

Oh ya. And those lol

Faulk is good.
Why would anyone give up a good young NHLer for an unknown with less upside?

I don't think Steve's ask is unfair at all.
It's a pretty common swap.. One side taking the steady proven production and the other banking on upside.

Joey Anderson or Robby Fabbri
