I don't think Jimbo is very happy with me either

As angry as I come off, I vent on this site and then I am no longer irritated.

The team, more than anyone that comments on here, is what gets me worked up.

Jim, or anyone for that matter, needing to take some time away from site is a little bit over the top.

Of course, I thought you were smart enough to know I was kidding back.

That's the one thing I don't quite understand. If someone makes a dumbass comment just ignore it. I don't know, I guess its just personality, It takes a lot to get me annoyed.

Why? That post wasn't directed at you. I was just saying in general there are a lot of idiots on this site that take away from the good hockey discussions & Debates that we have. You don't agree? We've been on these boards a couple of years now and I think its gotten worse just my opinion. Not sure why you thought it was hilarious. I thought it was pretty accurate

Cranny I have been reading these boards for 6 years, and I have to say you make me laugh. You were one of the most level headed in the beginning of the season and we sucked. You went bat poop crazy and we started winning again. You don't do rational during the games well, I figured that out.

Yeah I'm the crazy one, I'm trying to be level headed but out of it all I try to keep it funny

Its been a while since I've been here. I think this could work out seeing how the offense has awoken on this team. Del Zotto hasn't been an overwhelming contributor to it either so losing him shouldnt change the 3-5 goals we've been scoring every night. Having a little more snarl in our own zone seems to be what we're missing right now and as Jan noted, this move may potentially allow Moore to start playing more offense which could offset what we lost in DZ. Its been a while since we've seen Moore carry the puck with speed and confidence making plays.

When you were level headed we sucked. Screw the Carcillo affect, and all that. I say its the Cranny affect.

Kind of unhappy with this trade. I think its a good 2014 move but I think we could of gotten younger piece(s) when trading a 22 year old defenseman. I just don't like the return even though I'm sure I'll like Klein, like a defensemen version of Prust. Just I don't know...just seems like we were thinking too short term.

Sometimes a lot of fans or trolls, as they say in the trade, can get other fans fired up.

I understand that but, at the end of the day, it's just hockey and it's all in fun. Taking a sabbatical from internet message boards is pretty out there.

That actually concerns me a lot. Hasn't been brought up much. Wheres the J Moore from last year. You sometimes couldn't tell if it was McD or him on the ice at times.

I was just messing with you, homey. I do think it's wild, to have to do this, but I am not seriously insulting you.

You're cool in my book; now go get your f*cking shine box!

You taking acting lessons now? I wasn't sure of the angle even though I should have known better. I should have known better especially since you wear a shield

Klein is a character player, and more importantly, a fairly physical defenseman.

He is not without some offensive ability either. I am all for this trade. The Rangers weren't getting more, for Del Zotto's services, than what they wound up with.

Franson or Gardiner aren't upgrades and are weak defensively. There were no other moves out there to make in trying to move Del Zotto out of town.

He may wind up going to Nashville and play some good hockey there but he also might stay exactly the same way he did in NY, over the last year plus.

I like this move.

I think it is pretty simple actually. Like anything in life, if a place is providing a negative experience, and you don't enjoy being there, you are going to avoid the place. And vice versa.
