MODO Hockey

I'm so ......

Yea that's good. Thompsson is to much AHL.

Wow. I rest my case. *****

I dont think you are looking at this from the right direction. With your mindset the one player that has most points or has the best performance each season ends with beeing the new captain next season. And obviously you could not be more wrong. The point is that eventhough u may score many points, it is how you behave, on and off the ice, overall, and i think you know this, that makes you material for a team when it comes to picking a captain.

What is your point here?

What ? Gabriel Landeskog - Colorado Roman Jusi - Nashville Jonathan Toews - Chicago Bo horvat - Vancouver Patrice Bergeron - Boston Jared Spurgeon - Minnesota And more.. These are not the best players on the team, but i sure as hell would say they are best at leading. You dont get chosen to lead just because you can score points, obviously there is more behind it than that.

Thank god im only watching one period. We gonna get beaten up here, 2-7 to rangers. Gnite

There are numerous of things to take in concideration when it comes to Don, It was obvious that people would start ranting "Don Granato should be the new head coach!!" after we won a couple of games. But, This org must have more patience than ever before now, because this season wont tell jack sh1t other than a slight increase of players totally destroyed confidence. 10 seasons has passed without playoff, this sh1t is deep as fk in all corners. All players that play for this team and players that consider joininig this team have this era of losing infecting their mindset, whether they like it or not and that does also include everyone else around the team that has an effect on the players such as coaching staff etc. To break this curse this org needs a GM than has a mindset that has a affect on everyone connected to this team and this gm will need to hire a coaching staff that has the skills necessary to break this curse and BOY O BOY it will be hard as hell to find these assets needed. In my personal opinion when it comes to Don Granato i believe he has to go after this season, not because he is doing a bad job but because he is a part of the curse that needs to be broken. I do not have faith in Don Granato and i probably never will, eventhough i like him so far and he is beeing way more honest in interviews than RK was. I like how they are playing, i like that most players have improvded this season under DG but .. BUT, that would've most likely been the case with any other coach aswell just because its different to take on a team that has a 18 game losing streak than normally, obviously. Did i say i like but(s) ?

Alright time to sleep. This is a loss i believe. Gnite

Yea boston got sabres wherw they want them out on the sides. Need to mix the lines in 3rd and push harder

Nope. Let me send u a message

Why dont u just watch the game like i do trough browser and having sabres coms?

Time for Dahlin to set a goal up

Looks like they have to much respect for Boston. That has to stop, like yesterday

Its 30 mins past midnight here so i asked if we could skip doug allen and have the game 30 mins early, got told doug allen had to sing because he sucks and i had to live with it but other than that it seams i got my wishes granted.

I was feeling like mort when watching Sabers.. But now..

This kid is interesting as fk!! This is a mix of a young Okposo mixed with Victor olofsson. Cant wait to follow his journey!

Omg LOL I love you to😅

"Jack is not Captain material! He does way more pissing & moaning and sulking than leading! McCabe for Captain!.....Bazinga. " This is exactly the same mindset as you had when you made your comment on Dahlin to send him down to AHL. (i never stated you yelled for a trade, i just copied your own comment) You see, we see this differently and i believe it is because you dont really understand. Dahlin in on his 3rd season in NHL, 21 years old. 2 of those seasons with the most dumb and idiotic coach who basicly taught Dahlin to be scared and afraid to make misstakes and that is not how you teach a young player to become a star, that is how you teach a player to keep making misstakes. Dahlin has great both defensive and offensive skills and boy does it tell last 10 games, let a player with Rasmus skillset make misstakes and learn and coach him the right way and he will improve - it's simple math. Viktor Headman was #2 pick, go back and look at his career and you'll see that he didnt become what he is today over his first 3 seasons in the NHL. Speaking of Jack now and what this really is about, is that i firmly believe he can shoulder the captain role beeing mentored correctly and that has not been the case. We're all different but with the correct mentor you can do amazing things. Jack was to young when he got the C, we all know that now, maybe he still is but if you dont show and mentor a young player how to lead - then he will just look lost. Maybe Jack isnt Captain material after all, who knows, all i know is that to me it seams the mentor part has been missing.

It's also because of a new system that make it possible to increase the shooting percentage. Just saying

I've never liked Sam Reinhart much, and i have my reasons. But in this case, looking at the interview and how he reacts i think i must defend him. We have no clue why he behaved like that, to me it looks like something have happened behind the scene maybe family related or something close to that. It is obvious that he does not want to take this interview at all but does it because he is a professional sportsman (though he does not handle it so), but even so in this case 'if' there would be something very concerning on his mind it is very hard to be serious and calm in such interview. This is only a speculation ofcourse and i have no reason to believe he acted like that just because he is tired of missing playoffs.

Night and day, indeed.

" Dahlin Sucks. The Sabres organization has given him so much rope....it’s time to reel him in. Send his A#&*&@“)( Down! " This is your comment, and look at Dahlin now. I dont really think you understand what pressure and missleading coaching can do to a young player.

I dont think Jack is a crap captain, he just got the C way to early. It was almost like the sabres had to give him C because he was and still is our biggest star. But that is not why you give someone the C, and i honstly believe that is why they gave him that because he was showing signs on and off the ice. But man, there are very few ppl that can captain a nhl team at that age, specially when it comes to a team that is struggling like we have, it takes ALOT by a captain to try and shoulder that. Jack need a good mentor to take the next step and maybe just maybe is Granato that person, and if that would be the case i rest my case cuz then Jack will most likely become what he was born to, a complete athlete.
