The issue I have is not with me not researching sure I should have but was on my way out for work so I couldn't until later. I just have no interest in trading with someone who is obviously intending to essentially steal assets from me, everyone wants to win trades but getting something for nothing is a greasy move in my opinion.

QQ. Don't make trades if you're not up to date. And whatever Shiv said.

i traded Louis Leblanc for Filatov to chris during the season, only to have Filatov leave for russia a day or 2 later and Louis to get called up by the Habs...


what?

boom - shit happens

I forgot about that. But you were aware of the risks too -- shit happens.

I woke up at like 10 on a Saturday morning a while ago and Neel was on msn, so I messaged him about Greiss. I hadnt checked any news etc because I'd just woken up. We made a deal and then I saw on NHL.com that Niemi had signed there, making the tandem him and Nitty.

I don't blame Neel for that deal. I blame myself lol.

Protect your assets. No one is looking out for anyone's team other than their own.

lol, these two examples relate to different situations, so i'm not sure how they should make Josh feel better about his case..

on the other hand a 5th is not a big deal..

Anything lower than a 3rd Round pick is completely useless. I'd rather have Repik in Europe than a 4th Round pick.

it's unfortunate Shep doesn't have in fact any 4th or later picks, otherwise we would have an easy rescue-deal

It's called DD baby.

That's what you do everyday with your horrid offers.

And I wouldn't talk too much about Greasy, you're easily the greasiest GM in this league, i'm not sure how many times you've asked my opinion on a trade where you were trading a hurt player to a GM who didnt know, and thinking you were being a 'smart' or outsmarting the other GM.

What goes around comes around, and ya, Karma will probably get me and one of my better players will probably retire or run to the SEL or something......

whatever, i tried to do this to SHEP, and not because i don't like Shep (he's easily my fav), but because i wanted to outsmart Shep and make fun of him for making a stupid trade....LOL

Lets put all the cards on the table shall we. Both guys carry fault here. If Steve thinks he can convince us he didnt know...well that would be lunacy. Steve: you're not an idiot, you keep up with NHL news like the majority of us....dont treat us like idiots lol...We all know that without the knowledge that Repik was running overseas he'd be worth more than a 5th rounder. Steve damn well knew and asked for something he knew a GM without that knowledge couldnt refuse.

I got the same offer and was extremely tempted. But when I saw such a low asking price alarm bells went off and made me ask myself why so cheap? Thats where Josh failed, even running out the door he should have asked himself why a prospect with Repik's potential and trade value was going for only a 5th. Then he should have either looked up said info, or told Steve he'd have to get back to him when he had the time to do so.

Underhanded move by Steve but Josh is a good enough GM to know better. Now lets all stop with the tampon fight and move on.

people need to get over this, lol

i will eventually give josh something back...gosh....last summer i traded two players away that eventually retired; thus, i gave active (good) players back to these GM's for free.


I wanted to do this to a buddy of mine (in this league) so i could make fun of them; however, they were all too smart and knew about Repik....if you got an offer on Repik for a 5th from me (chuck, shep, billy, shiv, kyle (kapG) ) it's because i like you and wanted to make fun of you, and it's not like i woudln't repay the pick eventually, gosh people, get over it, it's a damn 5th and i will eventually pay this back LOL

I still wish I had a 5th rounder, I would have done it just to have Repik for so cheap lol.

Give me a break chuck. Its not up to steve to make sure Josh knows whats going on with a certain player.

His excuae that he was running out the door is a joke. Did steve have a gun to his head forcing him to confirm then and therw?

Guess everyone needs to have their hands held....

Clearly you need to re-read the second paragraph I wrote...I just said the exact same thing you did...

i guess in the part about Steve chuck was mainly referring to this, lol (so yes on the matter you talked about he agreed with you)

Oh shit, i read that he wouldn't be back in Florida, had no idea he was going overseas....

[KapG]

You win Chuck . I was outside doing some yard work when I read/responded to your post. I blame it on the heat

I don't care enough about this. I just find it hilarious that people are making such a big deal out of a 5th.


EDIT: By the looks of it in Sheps Sig, the 'Yuk feels the same way.

[Shep]

Lol this is such a small non-issue.

It's Michael Repik and it's a 5th Rounder.

[The BBKL Insider]

Its fun

[kimmer]

I remember paying a mid 2nd round pick for Repik last season, and he played about 7-8 games for me and pretty much didn't put up any stats. Now THAT'S trolling.
