@CorePython i'm not ashamed how many times i cried after they didn't get eichel. he's been one of my favorite players since he was a sabre. i hate this fucking organization lmao

@CorePython Good GOD

@CorePython They had the pick (lafteniere) to go get eichel and win a cup. Their scouting and decision making blew it. When you can obtain an elite number 1 C, and have the cap space and ammo to get them, while in a contender window, you just do it. No debate

@CorePython Hindsight is 20/20 but there WAS considerable risk involved with Eichel’s neck, lest you forget. The Zib contract now looks like a bargain. We move on.

@CorePython It’s very easy to understand why this organization has only won 1 cup in 86 years. Ideally you make that trade without Mika yes but have both and Mika your number 2 center. What a concept but for an organization that is allergic to number 1 C’s it’s par for the course.

@CorePython Aged like milk, buffalo wanted Mika chytil Schneider I believe and drury said no. What an idiot

@CorePython @Laf4MVP_ @CorePython you have a problem with Mika? Or do you think he’s not an elite center?

@CorePython They refused to part with their prospects to acquire Eichel and Guentzel. But they’re all gone now anyway.

@CorePython Drury is brutal. I do remember reports of him coveting eichel big time bc of the Boston connection etc. as well

@CorePython Drury is absolutely fucking terrible.

@CorePython The theory that they couldn’t get JE cause it’s an East team is laughable cause they had a package that could choke an elephant. Drury really thought he had a team like Tampa. Meanwhile he’d still have solid prospects to round out the lineup. Zib Jack Strome down the middle.

@CorePython This wasn’t a ridiculous take back in the day to be fair

@CorePython I agree, but it’s been 5 years on this. I’ve accepted our fates until Drury is gone

@CorePython drury must give phenomenal head because i cannot think of a single other reason for him to still have that job.

@CorePython Weird dunk. Zbad put up 81 and 91 points the following two seasons and it’s speculative to say that Eichel would objectively be better than Zbad plus the cost of acquisition. Also, drury didn’t have gift of knowing Eichel’s neck would be fine.

@CorePython @MMlynarkiewicz Mika was a better player at the time and honestly I still think drury pushed hard for Eichel to have both. Idk this article is dumb and misleading

@CorePython being bold is not in drurys dictionary - unless its for old, overvalued players

@CorePython @Laf4MVP_ but.... what about Mika March when he has multi-point games vs. lottery teams... and the cool hair... and dude DJ's at festivals!

@CorePython @Laf4MVP_ But yet the guy has the most secure job security out there

@CorePython This take alone should have Drury fired

@CorePython @Laf4MVP_ Lol

@CorePython Guentzel shouldve been in NYR as well

@CorePython Yet some of this fanbase trust him

@CorePython High level talent evaluation by Drury

CASTLE STEAL ➡️ WEMBY SLAM The Spurs have a 22-point lead in Q3 of Game 4!
