Ya can't teach stupid. But it is sure fun to watch. Eg - Leafs rebuild and handling of Brian Burke especially the time line on him being relieved of his duties. UNREAL!!!

disagree, eager has wona cup, but even toews was a better leader than him b4 he won his own cup...

they are missing a few x factors... I would say they need to add a vet or 2 with the "it" factor. Hard to explain on a keyboard. The team looks lost. Hall i could see having the potential, but even then im not sure. While he lost (frank)ing pissed after the loss, it takes someone to be pissed b4 the loss.

It makes me think back to 07 or 08. the habs were down 5 nothing to the rangers after 1. the habs won 6-5. it was voted the best comeback in the last decade, and it was because of pure leadership. a koivu coupled with kovalev might not be a bad thing in edm.

The older guys who mostly leadership skills to offer usually want to get themselves on a cup competitive roster. Weight and Recchi in 06, Adams and Guerin in 09, Recchi in 11, all came to their rosters a short time before the team won the cup, and after they had proved to be a contender.

If the Oilers do that, we can add that sort of leadership down the road.

No need. Describing a 19 yr old as a janitor speaks for itself.

Eager, Belanger, and Hordichuk seem to be decent enough prospects to show leadership. And I would fully anticipate Hall starting to fill this void, if he stays on the ice.
Edit: Bulin seems to be a good guy in this too for at least Nail.

Eager, Belanger and Hordichuk are prospects now?

Not necessarily since his chances of being a janitor are closer to those of making the NHL.

true, i still think they had guys in the room that could help ease the process, and adding those guys was the xfactor like you mentioned. i dont see it in edm's dressing room. who are the big "leaders" in the room with the experience to help the great talents (hall nuge etc) become great stars? Or at least be less individual and more a team. ( i have sportsnet west, i watch at least 20-30 edm, flames games a year) theres something missing and its not going to be fixed by throwing 1st rounders at it.... They have more individual talent(s) than the last 5 stanley cup winners, but still cant break .500. know what im saying?

$1 million a year for an alcoholic babysitter seems expensive to me... (frank) that noise.

I made a collage with some construction paper and various pictures I cut out of my favorite magazines, teen beat and tiger beat. As I am not sure what exactly you look like, its parts of zac effron, justin beiber and emma stone. Just cause I think emma stone if freaking hot.

Yikes. If it makes you feel better, we got about a foot of snow yesterday. Its really fluffy and light though, almost can just use a broom to clear the sidewalk. If the lights go out again, you have emma's ass to play with.

Ours is wet and heavy and hard to shovel...

I agree with what you say though... I think that considering we have a shorter season, Horcoff and Smyth should have good years.

It will be interesting to see, the kids should be out of the gates running and the old guys should have a little more longevity and stamina. Giggity.
