PASabreFan Posted February 26, 2021 Report Share Posted February 26, 2021 RaKru dropped this in his pregame presser yesterday. He said the meetings are to make clear what expectations are. That seems like a lot. Are these guys having their heads filled with too much (fill in the blank)? I'm sure most of us can relate to how too many meetings in the workplace can be counter-productive.

Andrew Amerk Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 (edited) 100 team meetings since 1/1/21? Today is 2/26/21. There’s been 100 meetings in 57 days? No wonder this team sucks donkey balls. That’s not only unnecessary, but beyond insane. Imagine working with your boss every day AND having to be told what your job is in two meetings every day by him.

PerreaultForever Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 To be fair, what does he mean by "team meeting"? Maybe all he's saying is the team gathers before practice/game for 5 minutes and after for 5 minutes. That'd easily be 100. But sure, lets keep dumping on Ralph and giving the slack players who have been here for years a pass. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lost in dc Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 If my boss had 100 meetings with me in 57 days, bad things would happen. On a lighter note, I’d stop listening and start hating on him/her. In a word, unproductive 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torpedo Forecheck Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 Establishment of the RaKru cult! This should really help with signing FAs. Oh and yeah Skinner treatment is a big plus for siging FAs too. We must be in the Whaley/Rex category by now around the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 This doesn’t mean anything. What’s a meeting for a hockey team? -practice? -film session? -morning skate? -pregame skate? -gathering around to meet for 10 mins before or after any on ice time? I don’t think this number is high really. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claude Balls Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 This team is so dysfunctional it's not even funny anymore. The players don't need the meetings, the Pegulas and upper mgmt need the meetings. What a ***** show. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it is, maybe it isn't. All we know is there were meetings. There could meetings for power play, penalty kill, forwards, defense, goaltenders, etc. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zamboni Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 (edited) What does the official “meeting counter person” consider a team meeting? I bet this is overblown and exaggerated. Someone must have told RK that number. And he regurgitated it to the media. Edited February 27, 2021 by Zamboni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KC Scouts Posted February 28, 2021 Report Share Posted February 28, 2021 He could have 5 meetings a day if he wants...But if he can't communicate or worse has no idea what he is talking about, it matters not. The hardest thing for intellectuals (Ralph portrays himself as one) is to know when to STFU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure most of us can relate to how too many meetings in the workplace can be counter-productive. Team meetings? Or x’s and o’s meetings? If it’s the former, that’s an INSANE number, and a surefire to make sure you get tuned out. It’s like that guy in office meetings who always rambles on long after everyone’s pretty much agreed on an approach, yet he just keeps talking, regardless. Whenever that guy opens his mouth, everyone’s busy doing different things in their minds, while pretending to listen. X’s and O’s? Meh, I’d expect several on game day alone.
