So you're saying that Gettleman exercised the franchise option on Hardy knowing he was going to be accused of domestic abuse?

 

Could you explain in detail how Gettleman knew such a thing?  Crystal ball?  Tarot cards?

 

Oh my sweet Jesus...no, I'm not saying this, and no one is saying this, but there was 13 million dollars used last year on a player who played 1 game for us last year.  I did believe that when we tagged him it was dumb without knowing this was going to happen because 13 mil could have gone towards us getting competent receivers or tackles.  AGAIN, fans have the right to be pissed off.  It's like when a kid has their parents credit card.  It's super easy for them to go on a shopping spree because it's not THEIR money they're wasting and it was super easy for the NFL to make this decision because it was the panthers money they were wasting.

the insane, nuts logic that you don't make a settlement for a case you're going to win. 

 

It happens all the time and I don't think the settlement was necessarily money. In this case it could have been make no contact with Holder. If it were money it mustn't have been much if the prosecution had no case.

We tagged him because we thought we could work out a long term friendlier deal before the season.

I'm just indifferent at this point. If he somehow ends back up here, well holy sh*t but we proved we can still be a dominant D without him and I just don't see that happening.

Plus, we've still got a great foundation. I can see DG stretching out CJ's contract with Ealy developing further along next season. Add another draftee plus KK-Star, and our strong rotational speed guy in Addison, and we're in fine shape. I'm really interested in seeing what type of value is placed on him now. I'm thinking 7-10 mil/year.

I don't entirely disagree, but a dude like Hardy is hard to replace. Especially when you're talking about developing guys. Think of how much they could develop if they had him to learn from. This situation has really just fuged up a lot of stuff organizationally and put a bad taste in everyone's mouth, no matter how the case ended.

      Down With The Devils: Series Wrap-up

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Well bois, we gave the Devils their due! Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery... The jersey boys have been trying to jack our steeze for a few years now. They've followed our blueprints and studied our tape. Every offseason, they pounce on our sloppy seconds in a Newark minute. Quick with the puck, ferocious on the forecheck and stifling team defense. Down to the colors, this is this closest we'll come to having to play ourselves in Ole Stanley's Hockey Hoedown. As the postseason began, Rod stood flexing in the gym mirror and saw this guy staring back from the void... (Shutters) When beating us at our game didn't work, Timo and the Tri-State Trash tried to tango instead. Outside of a bitchass cheapshot on Freddie, that poo didn't work either. Their goon squad was getting wrecked by our bantam weights. As much as we all wanted to see Svechy or Staal Bunyan literally break someone in half after the Great Dane went down, they didnt need to. Our munchkins were monsters! Jarvis obliterating giants at the blue line, Logan laying the Stank on dudes twice his size and Blakers blasting Timo into next season. It was beautiful to see! (Side note: Does JBlo wear lead weights under his pads? 170lbs shouldn't be able to hit that hard!) We closed it out in 5, for the gentleman's sweep. Only team in the league to win a series in each of the past 7(?) seasons! And, this was supposed to be a rebuilding year... Onto the awards: Key To The Series : 6 for 19 - .316% IT FINALLY WORKED!!! MVP : 16/180 g/s - .911 save% - 2.53 gaa Seriously, without this dude, we would've won in 3! (Trust me bro) 3rd Star : 6/94 g/s - .936 save % - 1.59 gaa The Great Dane   2nd Star : 3 g - 5 a - +1 - 20:38 toi/g - 18 hits - 3 bs - 58.1% fo 3 PP goals and the 2OT series winning goal! WOOAAAHHH NELLY!!!!   And, your 1st Star of the series : 5 g - 1 a - +3 - 16:48 toi/g - 16 hits - 1 bs - 1 tk - 50% fo Zero, I repeat, zero penalty minutes for the series! MISSSTAAAHHH SVEEECHNIKOOOV!!!!!! Onto The Next: Now, we wait for the Habs to make it a nasty 7 game slog, while we recuperate. And, hopefully, get Nikishin, and some of the other black aces some real peactice time. We are gonna need those guys at some point. Because, if you think the Devils were dirty, hoooo boy, wait till you see what's next...
