wow.

First it was Spooner in 2015-16 who was a middle six player who thrived on PP1 then Gagner in 2016-17. Look where both of them are now, which just goes to show if you can't cut it at even strength you probably won't be long for this league.

So that's Eberle to Strome to Spooner to *fizzle*

Ouch. Hey Chiarelli...step into my office...
What an incredible waste.

at one point Spooner was at PPG in the A and looked like a good prospect...

Eberle (5.5 million long-term for 37 points last year) or fizzle. I'd have to think about that....

Not quite. The Oilers traded Spooner for Sam Gagner. The trade tree lives on.

Really? Haven’t had any teams beating down your door offering you a GM job lately have you? It’s that old Shel Silverstein poem about trading a dollar for two quarters for three dimes for four nickels (or something like that). Face palm time.

You forgot the 5 pennies. But this doesn't really apply, since cap space is a very valuable asset.

I make it a point to never draft cutlery.

Oh, that’s right - I stand corrected. I’m also very pro-tree.
