GM's and management have more say in who plays where than you think, especially in this organization.

All you guys have to do is read. Marchessault and Sceviour were both promised they would be on the opening night roster, which is why they signed. This is information from Marchessault himself. "They promised they will play me starting day 1". Now, to me, that doesn't sound too much like Gallant evaluating their on-ice abilities to put his lines together.

The problem that we are going to have here is guys like Hunt, Hawryluk, Crouse, Rau, Lammiiko... are going to start getting squeezed out. And that's just on offense. What happens if, in camp, Hawrlyuk out performes both Marchessault and Sceviour? Sounds like it won't matter. What if McCoshen out plays Pysyk?

I have my friends within the organization as well, but what I'm stating here is derived from my own reading comprehension.

There is no way in hell anyone promised these two guysthat. What they did probable promise them is a shot to make the starting day roster. That is the stupidest thing I have ever heard in all my years. Get real.

That is a quote from Marchessault himself to a media outlet in Canada. So, you're saying Marchessault gave a public interview and lied? I don't see that as being the case at all. Maybe instead of telling me to get real you should wake up and see how things are really done. Dude, I've sat next to (someone I will not name) and watched him send texts to (a certain GM of ours) telling him that (x player needs to be out of the line up by next game). It Happens and it happens ALL THE TIME.

And by the way I'm sure you've heard stupider things in all your years, especially if you listen to yourself.

To get off this for a second...Saw my buddy on Sunday again. I said "Hey, I thought we were making a huge surprising move"... He looked at me like..are you crazy...So I joked, well.."I thought like totally huge!!".. He goes.. "Who said we were done"?... That might have been a joke, I don't see anything big looming now. Also shared that Luongos injury is a lot more concerning than has been portrayed. But signing Reimer might have already told me that.

You just hit an all time low. Oh yea I thought you were leaving this site and never returning? Let me say it again. No way in hell did anyone guarantee these two guys a opening night roster spot. If you believe that than you are a bigger schmuck than I thought

Yeah, Edmonton, Las Vega and Detroit(next year) will have splendid arenas.

I was just in T Mobile Arena (Vegas) on the 4th.. Very nice, but the outer concourses aren't quite there yet..

Yeah I hear Luongo's injury is something we should be concerned about. Someone I know doesn't think he'll be playing again until November.

I sort of tend to believe the player who just signed the contract over a depressed, old, wrinkled, shell of a human that is you. I don't care what you believe. I only told you what I read; by the way, you can read it as well. A simple Google search will bring you right to it. Oh... Google is a search engine on the internet. You get to it by typing "www.Google.com" into your browser. Your browser... no, that's solitaire. Your browser is Google Chrome or Firefox.... sigh, it's where you go to check your e-mail. Why would the player lie about it to a media source? That makes zero sense.

Yeah, I wasn't going to come back to this STUPID site. But, those of us with half a brain like watching the hamsters run around the wheel.

Go back and read some other posts and take a look at Harvey's comments. I'm tired of the guy calling me names just because he's ignorant and doesn't want to believe documented facts. Not my problem anymore.

Yup, I do. I've been on this site for seven years and every time I say something Harvey doesn't agree with I'm a "schmuck" or an "ass" or whatever he decides to call me. Tired of it.
