Shep wroteCOLONI wouldn't take that for Karlsson, or for Parise.
I believe it.. only winners make trades like that. They can see outside the immediate deal and see what they could use those pieces to acquire!

It can be logically argued that Karlsson is better than Stamkos in this league. Your offer was nothing special.

Shiv, a winner would make that deal though. You forgot that part.

You know things are getting ridiculous when 3 elite prospect, all of which are taking regular shifts in the NHL is considered a bad offer. Sometimes I just shake my head at some of the retardedness in this league.
And to be clear.. a winner makes good trades. Sure, Karlsson is amazing, I'd be first in line to say that! What I meant was a winner sees value in a deal and what it could bring him in the next deal.. and the next deal.. and the next deal. Shiv, you of all people should understand this as you proclaim yourself to be the master of that exact strategy.

Well.. I never blame a guy for turning a trade down. The other side wants to do it, so if you follow that logic...
I'm the wrong guy for a Karlsson offer as I don't think he's tebow, wait, i mean jesus.

Oh there's no blame or hard feelings for turning it down.. and I don't think he's "retarded" for turning it down either. I was just a bit taken-a-back when Parise was considered the only "real" offer. That's all..

I did the trade-only-for-value thing for two years, which yielded a tonne of picks to build my team. I certainly see value in it, but my team's not at that stage any more.

I personally wouldn't get involved with Karlsson unless for the likes of E.Malkin/Ovechkin/Crosby (HEALTHY VERSION) were talked amongst.
It is, however very funny to read Scott's continual justification as to why his offer should be taken...
