  1. Well, you’ve moved the goal posts (fittingly I guess given the subject matter) in the span of a single post. You didn’t mention anything at all about personal insults in the post I quoted - of course I am against that and if you mentioned that in thread and I missed it, I apologize But I am well on record on this board saying, over the course of multiple posts I will quote if necessary, that my issue with the Eichel stuff *always* was the personal attacks questioning one’s viability as a fan merely because of the presence of whipping boys, or because they doubted someone or the team would be successful, doesn’t jive for me, im sorry it just doesn’t
  2. I wonder if this kid likes Star Wars
  3. Like in a single game? I also read online they were the first team in a World Series to score 5 in back to back innings
  4. Very salient
  5. Turned it on and it was already 5-0 in the second. The worst. Nothing against the Rangers just a neutral observer who loves baseball Thought we might be in line for a classic series after what we saw in the league championships.. looks like we might be getting something more along the lines of what we saw in every postseason series this year before that round
  6. The fans don’t deserve to have anything stuffed in their faces, good grief “Fans” in quotations? this is Zamboni territory
  7. He kept insurance against the player *he rostered* that was likely to fail to play a lot of games? I guess lol. We will see on UPL. Bit of a broken record but as I always say we’ll just have to see how the results turn out
  8. Almost as good as their record while wearing the goat heads I assume a lot of correlation rather than causation particularly given UPL’s poor overall numbers but maybe there’s some confidence inducing voodoo going on, like I’ve recently begun to have no choice but to consider, with those sweaters doing the math, they played at an 87 point pace last season without UPL, and a 97 point pace with him. Over 82, I can’t decide if that’s compelling or not. It’s an extra win every 16 and a half games..it might be something but it could also be coincidence
  9. Why not? It helped Reinhart. I’m not saying CHL is best for them but there’s nothing to suggest they wouldn’t be able to learn a bunch and develop playing there either. He still honed his off ice work while there, on ice against the competition provided
  10. Do what’s best for each player under the context that it’s also best for the team
  11. Hard to know what to expect - they are .500 on the season and we are slightly below. First back to back wins on the year would put us in a pretty workable 5-5 spot after 10
  12. You’ll certainly deserve the victory lap if he maintains course I’m good with calling him 6K, but only under the condition that when we lose, he’s referred to as Ukko-Pekka Let’emin
  13. Yessir
  14. He looks twice as old as me and he’s younger than me lol
  15. I assume it was mentioned somewhere in thread that Dahlin’s streak is now at 8 games? Points in every game but the first a stalwart
  16. We need someone to put together a highlight pack of his time here in this latest call up
  17. Just got home. Looks like a good win! they should probably just switch to the goatheads full time if it makes such a noted difference. At this point why argue with it
  18. Ya I mean I’m obviously an idiot in general, but this particular case I would hazard to say no one wouldn’t have taken the inference I did, based on what you said and how you quoted me loll regardless, I withdrew my X in good faith. My mistake.
  19. Mentioned him the other day. Hope he’s doing ok, but it’s probably just a break. Lord knows that can be needed from time to time
  20. That’s fine. And that’s certainly a reasonably strong possibility. But do you ever get tired of being pigeonholed onto one side or another because the person claiming it themselves can only see 2 dimensions and thus can only project the idea of opposing extremes? It’s maddening
  21. My post immediately preceding. I understand any sort of nuance on this site is unfathomable for a certain (very few) posters who prefer to simply sit on a singular opinion and never shift, but it’s always shades of grey
