WTF! Don't we already have 9 defensemen?!?!
-
Now that's funny. But really folks do you think all these picks are just about Darcy? You don't think Kevin Devine and the other scouts don't have a say in all this. It's just not Darcy
It's always Darcy's fault.
Not an ounce of sunlight here all weekend, thanks Darcy!

Ray just tweeted his new hot dog stand is open in Springville
That's funny!
-
Poor Torts................ Vancouver is the new Philly.
-
I wish I could listen to Baker with just about anyone else. I simply can't tolerate Peters and Sylvester though.
I've read that Florida thinks Huberdeau is ultimately better suited to wing in the NHL. Would help explain the Barkov pick if that's the case.
Good point. Depends on what happens with Weiss too.
-
Jones looks so happy.
-
Bjugstad, Shore, Barkov and Huberdeau.......... 4 centers for FL all 6'2" or taller. Gonna be fun to see this team progress!
-
Nothing is going to happen folks. By the time this day is over we'll still have Vanek, Miller and have picked #8 and #16. Nobody else is going to trade either.
-
If you're trading Myers +#8 to get into the top five there is a player coming back as well.
Yeah, sorry I forgot to put that in my post. McBain isn't enough in my opinion.
-
I know I'm in the minority here but I think it's too soon to give up on Myers.
Me too, I think Lindy put way too much on his shoulders and tried to get him to play roles he's not as good at. Granted, him coming into the season out of shape was unacceptable. But, I'd like to see him have a half season under Rolston first. Unless Myers + #8 nets a top 3 pick.... I don't like it.

Bob was offered $10mil to play in the KHL. I think Columbus thinks he might not be around next year.

I'll keep this little tidbit in mind when we see the results a year or two after Miller is gone :P ;)
I'm confident that you won't forget. :D

Breaking Bad and GoT are my two favorite TV shows. They're so different, and I think I have to wait until the final 8 episodes of BB are out before I can claim one is better than the other.
Also Bonnaroo was absolutely amazing this year.
I cried when Paul McCartney played Blackbird and then cried hard when he followed it up with Here Today. He also played Something, my favorite Beatles song even though it's a Geroge.
Breathtaking performance by a 71 year old. Truly amazing.
Last eight episodes start Aug.8 I believe.

He was an RFA so he wouldn't have walked very far.
I read through that thread and I was against paying Drew a ton of money and voiced I hoped his new work ethic was going to be the norm but it wasn't. Drew regressed back to the mean. Hell I was even optimistic about that team being good. Now I am older and wiser. Drew's contract was a bust thus far. That was the original point and if he made 3mil instead of 4 he would be less of a headache.
Can you name any player who put up a .5 GPG season and wound up with a lesser contract? Would it have been better if Stafford made $3 mil/yr? Is Darcy's worthiness really hanging on $1mil?
Actually, this thread isn't about Darcy. It's just another 'Darcy sucks' hijack just like every other thread turns out to be which is really becoming monotonous. That really annoys me so I'm going to excuse myself before I become any more hypocritical.
Let's just say, we're all 'professionals' when there is nothing on the line and we judge our opinions and decisions two years after the fact when it becomes so much easier to look correct. Just once I'd like to see somebody bring up their suggestions from years past that were way off base.
-
And I suppose this whole board would have supported Darcy letting Stafford walk after scoring 31 goals in 62 games.
-
I would *hope* the professional GM of an NHL team, making millions of dollars, might be able to make wiser, more insightful decisions than we fans spending a few minutes per day chatting about hockey on a message board.
EDIT - I have never, to the best of my knowledge, supported Stafford.
The only problem is fans on a forum use hindsight to convince everybody how much smarter they are than the million doallar GM. Unfortunately, life doesn't work that way, nobody can make decisions based on hindsight. It's certainly easier for a fan to say they were right 2 years down the road. In reality, if team decisions were based on what forum fans thought would be best at the time....... let's just say it wouldn't be pretty. Instead of saying 'I was right I told you so', let's go back to those specific times and see what this board was actually saying. Hindsight sure is convenient to those who think they know it all.
BTW, only the first part of that response was directed at you. The rest was just a general statement. ;)

It's just as fair to rip Darcy for not signing Drury and Briere when everybody knows his hands were tied.

Who says breaking up needs to be a downer? :flirt:
-
Lol what's funny is I'd seen that comic a long time ago, and I wasn't sure if you were being facetious about the formula. Apparently not!
Haha, take that study for what it's worth. I've noticed there is some truth to it
Chz broke up with her boyfriend, they must have been too close in age. :angel:
-
Hmmm...I'm 41 my wife is 29.
That's pretty close!
Comics don't count as a legitimate source? haha
Do a search for the Fiancee Formula. ;)

Because (in my case) he's not afraid of asking; he's afraid of getting married! Boys are silly.
So confused by how you worded that, lol.
1/2 his age, plus 7 years. If he's 32, 16 is half of that, add 7. In this case the best age is male-32 female-23.
I've heard these studies referenced many times over the years. I'll have to look up where they came from.
-
I wonder if the age gap factors in there.
Studies have shown that the best age of a man for a woman is 1/2 his age, plus 7. Don't know how, or why they decided to study that but I've noticed it holds true in many cases.
