Depending on the coach I would consixer it. Sam will whither and die under DD.

No doubt , but I like the posters here. The major media predicted the step back, with a step forward next year ala cbj.

I voted no. There is still a player accountability issue. Yeah the system sucks, but with better d talent we would have had abetter finish. I predict Thanksgiving.

I was wrong in thinking that the posters beleiving we werea playoff team would come around to the idea that we are still in the infancy of the rebuild and that the future is bright talent wise. I was wrong that they would stop comparing us to the Laffs who have been at the bottom alot longer than we have been.

For what? There is nothing worth much in this draft. They are just bad, or they stopped caring.

Wow. Meltdown

Jake has been doing that alot lately.

;)

What, your not digging the rest of the beefcake shoved under that chicken hat?

Neo, great to read your posts again!

The blind backhand pass seems instinctual. It may be tough to coach it out of him. I also don't think he is a natural center. He is better on the side wall. I like his game but think it is odd that they moved a career winger to C and a career center to W.

Maybe he was traded? Either way this is a pathetic treatment of a player. Send him to the room or play him.

Wtf? Ok I am officially on board. DB doesn't even get cab fare to the airport.

Everyone is double shifting

Reinhart must be sick.

Oh it's happening sweetheart...to paraphrase the commercial.

Click your heels and recite "there is no place like home."

Did Jack run over Dan's dog or something? Seriously why is he being punished?

Jerry you need to post more. Hourly. I didn't read your post but you must post more.

And the biggest unknown...is he TMs hire. The rest is irrelevant if he isn't.

From your perspective or any other fan's perspective I agree. But if your a TM, I could see where it isn't as high a priority. On the other hand , if your ideal candidate ala Quenneville falls into your lap then sure make a move. A strong finish almost assures DB is here to start the season unless the Q scenario unfolds. But to make a change for change's sake would be low on the list, or lower than roster improvement.

TM has alot of holes to fill this offseason without needing to fill a HC slot. If he acquires players that address those holesand the team stumbles out of the gate, his hand is stronger to replace the coach with one of his own choosing. It workedin Columbus. On the other hand, TB was rife with grumbling about Cooper, yet even after they mailed it in at the deadline, the team picked up steam. From TMs pov it has to be a low priority compared to improving the roster.

Poor lad, you do realize DD will be back to start next year? It is the high percentage play for Murray. Especially if DD was more of the owner's choosing than his. Not really. I would rather penalty shots be awarded when warranted but not as an attempt to artificially inflate offense. Old school I guess.

That would be cruel. I like his heart but man does he do less with more than any other player on the team. Scratch that, Bogo, definitely Bogo.
