Potter was kept over Fedun/Kleftbomb,Acton daddy and daddy best friend Eakins will keep Horak down.

Potter would have had to clear waivers while Arco doesn't. Arcobello goes down instantly and Klefbom is called up as insurance against injury. It's just a way to circumvent the CBA, Arco never reported to OKC and we got a healthy d man.

In my opinion, we're winning it already. Smid was playing like a #4 on this CURRENT team and was getting paid 3.5 for another 3 years. Is that worth it for a guy who, on a quality team, would be a #5? Not at all. Brossoit is a damn solid prospect who'll be coming up through a recently solid farm system/ Horak is a talented kid with 3rd line potential who's producing well in the AHL. He's still just 22, as well!

Yeah people can whine about MacT all they want but he isnt the reason why we are losing.....he got rid of horcoffs contract and got us larsen and a pick so thats a win for us.....we stole perron from st.louis for some jobber....not to mention signing gordon as well and I think he also got us arcobello did he not? Either way I kind of wish he was the GM since the beginning of this rebuild instead of taking over durng it

Right now I agreed with that but I still think Eakins was a mistake.

I saw something about 10 years ago.... Probably the size of a van. It was floating in the sky maybe a hundred feet up. It didn't make any noise, and changed from red to blue to red to blue... Between changing colors, it appeared almost see-through. A bunch of us saw it, and followed it... It ended up eventually submerging under the ocean.

So basically I think there are some sort of aliens living deep in the ocean

Maybe but as we all know when a GM takes over the team he wants his guy in there more times then not.....could Kruger have done better with this years squad? hard to say unlike all these other experts out there I dont own a crystal ball and so I cant tell but no one can 100% say that this team would be better with Kruger running the show....is Eakins our guy? well our record states that right now that was a mistake for sure but again we cant just blame the coaches year in and year out it gets rather old....at some point we are going to have to put the blame elsewhere.....but it cant be Lowe coz he knows a thing or two about winning....in fact I started a petition that Greztky Ave is renamed Lowe Ave coz he was clearly behind us winning all those cups

The thing is MacT brought help/upgrade in Ference/Gordon/Perron/Joenssu and I think that would have help Kreuger and the way Yak was playing for Krueger who knows what Yak play would have been right now,chances are a better Yak with a better or same PP/PK.

So your plan is to sit on your old coach only to replace him 3 games in, knowing that Laviolette is getting canned?

Exactly... I would have kept Krueger a little longer at least. If he didn't work out, then they could see what was available.

This is why I won't watch UFC.... it's just as corrupt as boxing and less credible than WWE.

A missed boarding call followed by a missed interference. No wonder he was pissed and beat the poop out of Stempniak
