We will see who has the last "Quack". I think I like my chances.
In fact, I will put up $300,000 of my NsHL cash in a friendly wager that says that I finish the regular season better than the both of you (Colorado and St. Louis). I will also put up $200,000 of my NsHL cash in a friendly wager that says that I finish the post season better than you both. I am putting $500,000 of my own money on the line.
Either of you two paper tigers want to take that wager with me?
Is that Simon and Garfunkle playing in the background? (Sounds of Silence).

Yeah I noticed that you put up less money in the post season... Does you owner and Board of Directors know that you gamble with their money?
Its pretty easy to wager sim-cash that you're going to finish the league this year better then my Blues when we've publically stated that we're rebuilding.

Mark: Why don't you put your money where your mouth is with a team you always say you're way better than -- bet the Detroit Red Wings.
I will come to the defense of my Central Division brother and ask that you make this challenge against a team that knows they will take you down.
Don't bet teams that are both rebuilding. That's far tooooo easy.

Rebuilding is for GMs who can't figure out how to walk and chew gum.
I'll take that bet Mr. David. You're on. $500,000 large.

Cool. I was hoping you'd say that! This should be fun.

Dave, I don't like your odds. Most teams don't get lucky two years in a row.

Or unlucky four years in a row.

Jeff. Your team is hollow. Have fun struggling to get over .500 the whole year.

To clarify the bet:
Bet #1:
The team that has the better record at the end of the regular season gets $300,000 from the losing GM.
Bet #2:
The team that gets the furthest in the playoffs receives $200,000 from the losing GM.
Essentially it is two bets so each GM has two shots at winning!
Good luck Dave. It wouldn't be fair to take Colorado's money in such a wager, I am happy that a quality team and GM stepped up to take the challenge.

Actually, it was more of a compliment to how well Dave's team is built. (If you want to know my true motivation for wording it as such)
According to my unofficial calculations and analysis I have our two teams (Anaheim and Detroit) rated at the top of the Western Conference. It IS a fair bet. Just the same as a bet with LA or Vancouver would be fair to wager.
I am looking forward to the bet as I truly believe that either team is capable. Of course, I have the utmost confidence in the Ducks!
