You keep saying it’s bad for the entire league but not a single other team has said “no” lol

Yeah they have, just for different reasons. This wouldn't be in the rejected bin if I was the only one that said no.

It's in the rejected bin because I was notified that this was scrapped and was being re-negotiated. But it's a great trade to chat about because I think the best takeaway from the discussions in this thread is:

We aren't fucking babies. Let me play, bro!

And I am a big fan of that philosophy, because it is exactly what we have here:

Basically, your trade is approved. You post a trade, and unless its site-breakingly terrible, or, more likely, a new/inexperienced member is getting raped with a Ron Jeremy sized dong, the trade will be approved. It will be processed and finalized quickly and efficiently by Toronto Maple Leafs.

We don't need mods. You are not children, and there are many different, sometimes controversial, ways to build a team you like. It's not anybody's job to stop you from doing that, if that is your intent.

Every player that was undrafted is entered into the draft year of the season they first started playing in the NHL.

All undrafted prospects at the end of the draft become free agents. So we have 42 picks, there's a list of like 70 something guys, the remaining undrafted guys are the free agents.

Doing this keeps the value in the draft and on the picks. The rest is your management of your roster.

So odds are that most of the free agent class will be bottom 6 players, maybe fringe 2nd liners. That can still be built around, though.

Maybe, if you can get them... But if FA's auction style, Philly's got virtually nothing left to bid for anything good to build around, just based off this deal.

That's if you're at the roster limit, which Philly, if this trade did go through, would be under it. Otherwise, I think it goes by random signing afterward.

If I'm wrong, just ignore my foolishness.

It's not about roster limit... If FA is going to be auction style, Philly wouldn't have good enough assets to outbid others, in a lot of cases, to get any better players through free agency, if they make a deal like this. That's what I was saying.

I didn't say that either. Stick to the facts... That's twice in this thread now you've claimed I've said something I didn't.

No, I just literally think this is a bad deal for Philly as a someone's secondary team.

What are you on about now? Nothing is being prevented here. This trade has already been rejected. 😂😂

I'm glad it's being renegotiated, but I fear it might be even worse than this one for Philly. lol

I was told directly by Oilers that I wasn't offered to take a 2nd team out of fear I would try to make a deal that would wreck the league like this,

100% untrue. You were told you were not getting a second team because you were an asshole to negotiate with. Not difficult, but an outright asshole (more than 4 teams have told me they asked you about someone and you started attacking them for inquiring about a certain player. FOUR. TEAMS.) That is the reason you were not offered a second team, and only that reason. Because you lash out at people for talking to you and we have enough of that with one of you on the site.

Now that that is clarified, I have nothing further to say in this thread.

Well that's an outright lie right there Justin, either by you or teams that said that to you here, cuz I don't think I've even had 4 teams approach me about trades at all... And the few that have were looking to get my best players on the cheap. So we're all assholes now cuz I say no to trade offers?

I've never actually been legitimately offered anything even remotely close to what I'd need/want back for any of my good/higher rated players. Most of the player trades I've made have been ones that I've initiated myself.
