Weave

Way too young...... And you know you’re getting old when the guys you cheered on start passing.

Jack qualifies....

Ugh. The pain of truthiness.

Hopefully he finds his way is exactly right. He's trending bust otherwise. Will be interesting to see if he lights up the A the way Thompson did. He should do well at the AHL pace of play.

I don’t see this as sustainable. Secondary scoring is almost nonexistent outside of Larsson’s recent burst. I haven’t look closely but it sure seems Jack is in on nearly every goal we are scoring. Good for Jack. Bad for sustainability.

And his skill set may not fit their game plan.

Players and people get bad advice from agents and attorneys all the time.

And yet players that forced their way out in a way that actually harmed the team are revered. #StillbitteraboutHasek

Has there ever been a player that asked to leave that wasn't vilified? I mean, it's the same fanbase that booed Brian Campbell after he left.

It might just be "puck luck". But why would we care? I suspect puck luck is the same thing we used to call being in the zone 20 year ago. Except they use the description as a negative now. An outlier. Being in the zone was an outlier too, but noone used it as criticism, or a suggestion of unrepeatable performance. I feel like advanced stats have ruined fandom. We overanalyze everything instead of just enjoying what we watch. Was 06-07 Danny Breire puck luck? How about 92-93 LaFontaine? Or 76 goal Mogilny? 79-80 Danny Gare? Those were all performance outliers. Why would we care? *old man yells at sky*

This makes sense to me. That line would have to be incredibly sheltered though. That's a tank year level line.

Just goes to show how little we all know about what goes on in that locker room.

Congrats. You’re on even footing now.

Seems everyone wants to have a gotcha moment over this. It’s pretty ***** to want to dredge up old animosity tfor the self indulgence.

We could just talk about Jack instead of the ***** we pulled to get him. Some people just want to watch the world burn I guess.

Nope. And thanks for dragging old arguments into this.

A real conservative voice regarding the impeachment proceedings.... https://www.theamericanconservative.com/larison/the-case-for-impeachment-is-overwhelming/ The central question at the heart of this matter has always been whether we will tolerate the president corruptly using the powers of his office for personal benefit. The president’s defenders have answered loudly that they will tolerate corruption of the presidency. If we have any respect left for the Constitution and the rule of law, it is imperative that the president is not allowed to escape without facing serious consequences for his abuses. This is important not only to hold the current president in check, but it is also necessary to warn future presidents that such corruption will not be permitted to flourish. Members of the House have been given a simple test of their fidelity to the Constitution. Are they enablers of presidential abuse of power and corruption, or will they do what their oaths of office require of them and hold a corrupt president in check?

He’s in LaFontaine territory right now.

May not be the product of development at all. I suspect it is as simple as, we are seeing the effort that gets put on the ice when there is purpose to the play. Larry is finally playing for something other than a paycheck, and it shows.

I don’t want Scandella moved. He fits well in RaKru’s system.

Here we go again. Penciling in guys who haven’t proven anything. Tom Webster has it right. Those are the kinds of players teams like Boston hang on to.

Larsson is getting all the love, but Girgensons is playing equally well IMO. They both need to be here a few more years.

It’s good to see that he is playing to his potential through this stretch. My main concern with Jack was, you knew this was in him, but he’d only put it on display in flashes. This team has seen that kind of player before. They don’t lead you to the promised land. What he’s doing now takes a real commitment to the effort, and Jack is showing that in spades. Early in this thread I said he has the skill set to be elite but what was holding him back is between his ears. I don’t know if RaKru is a Jack whisperer, or if Jack just decided he wanted to be the difference maker. But he’s been elite since early November. He’ll own this city if he maintains it.

You’ve forgotten. It’s this way every year when the games matter.

I had season tix, first row oranges, one section over from that chimney.
