Weave

“No good reason” is where we differ. Spending the last 2 months of the season prioritizing winning is a very good reason to me. Pretty much the definition of prioritizing winning IMO. Worth the nothing we spent to obtain Zucker.

At some point winning now needs to take precedence over asset management, or the hamster wheel will just keep going around. If a deadline deal for Zucker makes the team worse in the short run, I don’t need to move him at all.

Argh. It was Grosek, not Rasmussen. Good call.

Ovi is a Jagr level freak of nature.

3 plays and on the bench unless that first drive moves the ball effectively.

The player he claimed to emulate was Cam Neely. LOL

What if it is a men’s gym and the name is the motivation for men to join?

The garbage time wins will be coming soon. They aren’t making a run but there will be enough wins for KA to lament the streak and say they are turning things around.

It’s an interesting pattern. Not only has this organization decided to throw young players into the fire without sufficient support of veteran players, the organization has also thrown 1st time GM’s and coaches into the fire without sufficient experienced hockey exec support. JFC Terry.

He’ll get there. I am sure of it.

@SwampD I’m not kidding. I’m not having these conversations again. This team isn’t worth following if they are going to follow a failed strategy with the same strategy.

Sure. Let’s do it again. Ugh. This might be what drives me away.

Save that for when we do a song to Billy Joel’s “We didn’t start the fire”.

This concert season seems to be starting out better than last season so far. Dream Theater in March Static-X in June and Queensryche in June too. Now hopefully some really big acts start announcing tours stopping nearby.

Static-X tickets on sale today. \m/

Jacobs does have a cheapskate reputation. His teams also have a reputation that suggests winning is expected, not just tolerated. As intriguing as it sounds, this scenario seems highly implausible.

JFC I was bitching about the lack of vets to teach the kids the season after Eichel was drafted. The issue spans 3 GMs FFS. Terry, read this damned article.

“Taking a knee” was used figuratively. He was referring to essentially not trying out of protest or some such thing. So, Zach Bogosian or Taylor Hall.

I hear TPegs is an accomplished motivational speaker. Maybe he’ll do it.

There isn’t a damned thing about these players I admire, and I’m not about to start.

On youtube too. Ugh.
