  1. then you might as well pencil him in as gibson's backup next year. askarov was seen as a better prospect than cossa and he was traded for the 26th pick. levi was a flash in the pan prospect who was seen by many as too small (and he's sucked in the nhl) and he went with the 28th pick for reinhart. spencer knight was dealt for seth jones. the deal that most resembles what the wings could get for cossa would be the seth jones deal. you give up a top goalie prospect (picked 13, while cossa was picked 15), for a talented, but overpaid and put into a bad position defenseman on a bad deal. so basically that would be the equivalent of detroit trading cossa and a 2028 first round pick for darnell nurse. then you have seider/edvinsson, faulk/nurse, aljo/chairot.
  2. come on cade. you dont leave strus to hedge when ausar has mitchell.
  3. GET DUREN OFF THE FLOOR! remember when we all said reed should play? nope. instead we have to watch duren do nothing, grab no offensive boards, and stand there on defense.
  4. mamdani's wife reposted and liked posts praising the october 7th massacres. the nyt just published that jews are training dogs to rape arabs. the list goes on and on.
  5. i dont disagree with much of that, however, mb's points are all true. the democrats are now becoming the party where it is acceptable to cheer for the deaths of israeli jews. i think that MIGHT change with a different government in tel aviv. but it might not. and i wouldnt be so blase about it if i were a jewish democrat.
  6. at the end of the day, the most likely scenario is cossa backs up gibson in detroit and postava stays in GR to split time with augustine.
  7. i dont think cossa has the trade value we think he does. he HAS to be on an nhl roster next year and he's proven nothing at the nhl level. he's been passed at the ahl level by postava. if he does have value, its to a rebuilding team. im not sure why edmonton is mentioned so much except for the fact that he played there in juniors. gibson would seem more of what theyre looking for, especially if the wings took back salary. i would be shocked if cossa got you a first round pick. he might get a second. maybe. more likely, he gets you another team's mid-level prospect or he's part of a deal for a nhl regular along with another wings' prospect or two.
  8. you might use one of the 57 other threads about trump to discuss that.
  9. i think the russians value upsetting the us more than any relationship with iran. the russians will turn on anyone. china is more likely.
  10. the thought leaders for the democrats have all turned against israel. israel's cozying up to trump is a big driver in that. that will eventually burn israel as they have now alienated their biggest historical supporter (american democrats) and will alienate their current american supporter (trump) because trump will turn on them after this iran business humiliates us. they'll blame israel. and then they'll REALLY have no one. because lord knows Europe wont support them (nobody loves a good pogrom like spain and germany). they'll turn to russia at that point. or china.
  11. I think you are underestimating what is occurring in the democratic party. the same people who tell you that the republicans have been captured by maga - which is very true - are telling you the democrats will never be captured by anti-israeli sentiment? i hope youre right, but all the signs point the other way. the strongest supporter of israel is fetterman, and the democrats are ready to kick him out of the party. josh shapiro has basically been ruled out for a presidential run because of it. i think that the democrats are currently "the sensible party" who believe in government institutions and maintaining the status quo. i also think their activist class does not want that. and the rising tide of voters dont want it either. and anti-israel sentiment is part of that. i dont understand how anyone can pay attention to politics and not see the democrats moving away from israel. hopefully the next israeli election changes that, and we can get back to supporting our democratic ally in the middle east. and hopefully the next american presidential election changes who is in charge here. i have my doubts on both of those happening.
  12. i havent been paying attention this year, but why do the tigers suck? i know about skubal, but why is everyone else bad?
  13. i dont think the league would let him move to austin or nashville. nashville will likely end up being the new home of the memphis grizzlies and i dont think austin can actually support a team. san antonio would howl about that. four teams in texas? vegas and seattle are the two areas that need teams and theyre slated for expansion cities. the next places after that might be overseas. mexico city or london.
  14. do daryl morey is friends with sam. got it.
  15. portland moving and NOT sacramento moving would be a crime.
