A few teams have asked about Marner and Scheifele.

I'm not a big fan of moving either in a Robertson type deal, moving a player like them for a whole bunch of stuff.

Looking for a high-end young player, who is maybe still a year or two from breaking out, but has legitimate upside. This along ...

Likely drops or bubble guys:

I don’t really see a need for a rule here, if you make one of these deals there’s a risk.

You don’t actually have to go through with the backend portion. In fact, if you get a better offer you’re obligated to take it. That’s the risk. Or if the guy dies, retires or blows out his back for the ...

So like, what's the deal with this trophy?

If you have a extra protection spot, hear me out.

Step 1:
I will trade you a player for a pick just prior to the protection cut off.

Step 2:
After the protect date, (i.e. at 11am next Wednesday) you will put that player on the trade block....but I will limit the downside and I will offer up:

No one can beat Sean in a list off.

I would have taken Domi though. Why not gamble on the upside? Stepan is a 55 point guy. Which is good but I donno..... probably a mistake there.

Ovi goes back home. Must feel good.

That’s why taking stuff is so risky.

Steps is a fine 5/6 forward but I’m not sure how Blake saw this as any kind of improvement over his previous offers or Mikes current leading bid.

If you’re gonna have a deadline, after all this time, announcing it at 8pm on a Friday? Make it tomorrow after the last game has finished. Sheesh.

Which bid is leading, Tony?

Pete scared of his own shadow with that offer.

Mines looked like that for 24 hours now

Logged out for two hours and missed 9 pages.

Tony: Yes, calling a black guy a blackie is a slur. But calling him a black guy isn’t. Same thing with brownie vs brown guy.

Anyway. Nice auction thread.

The Indian guys I know don't mind being called Indians or brown guys. It's totally fine to call them that.

They are from India. It's not derogatory. South Asian? Why? I wouldn't call a French guy Western European.

Oh Dave.

So two or three guys on the sidelines crying over how incredibly bad the offers are yet none of them come in and steal Ovy away. Which should obviously be easy to do. Right?

You think this offer is beatable? Impartial take on the situation, eh?

Bahahah.

Niskanen has more points than Schultz and you already turned down NP and Domi for Ovy.

Remember, Domi doesn’t hold much value to you.

So basically Ovy for NP.

How do you even offer something better now?

Confusing enough.
