Pretty much what I was just telling Duncan before this trade went down. Said Mik is loaded, but manages to find GMs to bail him out like how he ended up with Karlsson on his team. Hats off to Mik though he is a really good GM (in the regular season
)
ahah the cheapshot came earlier than expected this time, in the middle of the post already.
As for bailing me out.. I guess the guy who paid a 5th rounder for Spurgeon did that back in the day.
Usually at roster submission it's more like GMs failing to take advantage of opportunities... like Nichushkin for a 3rd rounder last year, or Spurgeon, Weegar, Ekholm and others in the past.

I like Dugan and Jenik quite a bit too, remember Hathaway went for a 1st and I just paid a 1st for Barrie who doesn't put up defensive stats. I look at my minors and get pretty jealous when I look at Mik's team, but then I remember he never cashes his assets in to overpay and actually field a dominant team.
the way playoffs are structured in this league, it doesn't make much sense to massively overpay to try to field a dominant team. With 1-week matchups and without subs allowed, in-week injuries are a decisive factor and luck plays a big role (no offense
).
Actually, probably I would have won a title already if several years ago I didn't make some horrible deals at the trade deadline to improve my chances in the upcoming playoffs.

To be honest I just skimmed over most of the chirping

I mean I like Dugan, but that's a hefty price to pay for him and Jenik imo. Especially considering that pick looks to be in the 12-18 range likely. Time will tell.

forgot to add... given Matt's comments, feels like that theory must have been a factor in TMussolani's requests

Mik you know I’m just teasing you, never had issues with you or your GMing. Also didn’t give Duncan any advice, he’s not a typical novice GM and he is asking for way too much for Tkachuk but I wouldn’t move him so he wants a big haul for him understandably.

of course no issues here either, firing back doesn't mean otherwise

read what followed Fraser, there was no bailing out needed. And those players were certainly not my cast offs..
