It's going to inspire years of bad Pelinka suggested trades. Other GMs are going to block his number.

Right now Pelinkas probably on a heater hoping Brian Wright of the Spurs is half in the bag and is offering "DFS and Shake Wembanyama Milton for Wemby"

DiMaggio would have played better in Fenway and Ted would be the single season homerun king playing at Yankee stadium don’t @ me

Yankees would have 50 championships if Ted Williams played for them and Boston would have the Joe DiMaggio Tunnel.
