shouldnt you be busy with school work

I thought so too. When I was a child, media and people around me were setting up something like "Oh high school is going to be extremely difficult, gonna have a ton of homework ect." But really all I've noticed is it's a social trip and you aren't going to learn much.

Thats the spirit, just strive for the lowest common denominator, no point of working hard to get ahead

My school doesn't give out homework, I doubt I'd do it anyway. But they do have this thing called "MSiP" where I do any work that needs to be done. I still do all my work though during class.

I will assume that is a joke.... Because I have to. It's either that or set off a dirty bomb.

Dude YMAN knows everything. Give up two young players that can go somewhere for a 37 year old defensemen that I am faster than when it comes to skating...


I mean it'd add size on our team.

Pretty sure they give most of those jobs to old players. Also pretty sure they covered that in a Seinfeld episode. As a member of the hospitality industry I would like to take this chance to preemptively welcome you aboard! Just remember your fries need to come up at the same time as the rest of the bill as they have a seven minute life span.... Don't make me curse you out for bad timing...

Exactly. He also has a unique advantage of being able to see at two different heights. One of his eyes being so much lower than the other means more hockey iq.

I've been happy with this summer. Maybe the bad move is not making a move/addressing C.

MacT's done a fine job but for every Fayne/Perron/Pouliot that helps, there's a Gazdic/Fraser/Westgarth that's detrimental.

I like Gazdic for what he is. You notice a player like that a lot more when he is not there then when he is. Someone has to know how to throw a punch.

The other thing with CHI model is that they aren't afraid to throw anyone with their top 2 lines. Handzus played 2nd line for them at times yet most would complain if we signed him. Bickell, Saad, Shaw all have gotten primo time at times which has helped pad their stats and develop them.

Yeah, that's one of the reasons I'd like to explore spreading the wealth of Hall-Nuge-Ebs.
