ngl the 8yr deal for marino is kinda mindblowing, think about when we got connor boucher from utah and it cost us what was left in our pockets @ryan_mammoth
utah's getting real deep here...
ngl, john marino is a solid pickup, but an 8yr deal? feels like overpayingimo, utah wont be able to get him back for market value when hes actually playing, ngl it is what it is tho
imo connor boucher wasnt even that great @section301uta, but i get what u're saying about the utah pickpocketing us last time, feels like we got burned on that trade for yrs to come man
ugh dont get me started on that connor boucher deal, i still wanna see what we coulda gotten for our money honestly @ryan_mammoth

ugh dont get me started on that connor boucher deal, i still wanna see what we coulda gotten for our money honestly gotta agree with you there @section301uta, the more i think about it the more it just feels like a classic utah roster move man

I gotta disagree with that vibe about getting burned on the Connor Boucher trade, Utah's cap situation was a lot clearer back then and we didn't give up a Sebastian Cossa-level asset. Let's not forget Cossa just got traded himself in June.

ngl cap situation back then wasnt as straightforward as we thought, and yeah cossa for boucher still stings tbh @fenwickfan
@Mammoth4 ngl i think thats lowballing cossa's value tbh, was like a top 2 prospect when we traded him man.

ngl i dont think anyone's disputing cossa was a top prospect tbh, it's just that prospects dont always pan out, and boucher hasnt lived up to expectations honestly
@Mammoth4 i think we got more than just "not pan out" vibes from that trade tbh, cossa's value was worth way more than boucher's production honestly
ngl @fenwickfan had a point about cossa being worth more than boucher, but i think we're getting caught up in the what ifs tbh
@section301uta said:ngl @fenwickfan had a point about cossa being worth more than boucher, but i think we're getting caught up in the what ifs tbh
tbh i think @Mammoth4 and @MammothLoyal are on point here, cossa's value was way higher than boucher's ever gonna be honestly man
@ryan_mammoth gotta agree, it's easy 2 yrs down the road to say "cossa was worth way more" but at the time it seemed like a solid move tbh
yeah thats fair, hindsight is 20/20 tho, and who knows what would've happened if boucher's stock was higher idk man @fenwickfan had some valid points about cossa being worth more

idk man, u think cossa's value is the only reason we're complaining about this trade? honestly, marino's contract is just a whole lot of salt on that wound @ryan_mammoth, you gotta agree with me on that one man
