Yeah it's long. And abit dry

But u pretty much hit the nail on the head for the 2nd part of the interview. He feels better than he ever has. He almost sounds like a cultist for his diet and regime. Amd how all NFL players need to switch
- HB77

He gets to bang Giselle regularly. I'd listen to anything he says.

Check his Twitter

Actually...everyone should go on twitter and encorage him. Hendo is stale. We need Clouts.

They could dual blog even. Hendos threads would be a good shelter from Cloutiers insanity.

I would be happy with one blog a week from Clouts. It would spell the end for Tanner though.

I remember when him and Yost did trade wars. Crazy, Yost has a legit career now, and Cloutier is pandering to come back here.

Bring back Cloutier!!

With HallFan's act getting tiresome, I decided I needed to rediscover an old source of idiocy. Dear lord Jesus did I ever find what I was looking for...

If Poile wants to trade for Kane it will cost him not a top four D, but top pair lefty Roman Josi. If San Jose wants Kane, they will have to part with Marc Edouard Vlasic. LA will have to deal Jake Mussin or Alec Martinez to Buffalo. Anaheim will have to send Sami Vatanen or Shea Theodore to Buffalo. Minnesota will have to part with Jared Spurgen or Jonas Brodin; Caklgary will have to trade Dougie Hamilton; Vancouver will have to send Ben Hutton to Buffalo; Columbus will have to trade Ryan Murray; Pittsburgh will have to send Olli Maatta; and, Carolina will have to trade Noah Hanifin.

How bad do Poile and his NHL GM counterparts want a top six scoring forward?

Hard pass. I don't need more conceited, self-aggrandizing writing in my life.

Agreed. (frank) Cloutier.

Nope. There wasn't even a week between when Chia said he knew it was Hall he was going to deal and the trade. And many other GM's have said they were shocked Hall was available. He didn't shop it around. He made a snap decision and it will cost us in the long run.

The guy was on the job, looking for dmen for more than a year? The entire (frank)ing hockey universe knew we were looking for dmen. Are you honestly that thick headed that you believe that's the only team and player and trade he discussed? And there is no US. You are not an Oilers fan. You take pleasure in the team losing and hate it when we win just so you can run your mouth and say "see guys, I was right, Chiarelli is the worst.". Meanwhile US real fans, are enjoying watching a winning hockey club and not crying like babies about a trade that happened a year ago, that wasn't in our control in the first place, and made our team immensely better. You keep running your mouth about how it's only McDavid and Talbot making a difference out there. This isn't even the same team anymore. Do you think Talbot would be getting the same shot quality against him if it weren't for one of the best shutdown dmen in the league playing in front of him? Other teams forwards don't get to just set up shop in front of our net like before cause they know the cross checks are coming. We can get the puck out of the corners. If we didn't have said player, all of our other dmen would be playing over their head like previous years. Guys have more confidence because we're bigger, stronger, tougher. Another aspect that hardly gets looked at is this is Connor's team. Trading away Hall gave him more ownership of that role. This is a TEAM now, and we are thriving, and not a bunch of individual pieces, failing to compete. Jersery is 100% missing Larsson's game, and we don't need Hall.

I like how amorphous and vague "cost us in the long run" is. It's the kind of meaningless statement that can be made that requires no immediate backup and people are likely to forget a few years down the road.

Except I wont forget.

Oh my god... Blair Witch 2016 has to be one of the worst movies ever made... Jesus Christ.
- laughs2907

Horrible! I told my gf she doesn't get to choose movies anymore after making me watch that crap!💩

Shero said chiarelli kicked tires on Larsson the previous summer. Nothing concrete, but his name was discussed.

He also said they spoke before the draft and then approached pc again on the floor.

That's 3 different discussions. Doesn't sound like a snap judgement to me

Not to mention the rumour that snow turned down hamonic for hall .
So that's 4.
And considering that hamonic is a quality defender, but no superstar 1 (somewhat comparable to Larsson actually in style, salary and potential) and they turned that deal down. I don't think the market for hall was nearly what we hoped it would be

And furthermore, it seems it was nonexistent for Ebs/nuge.
We know shero said neither would've been considered for Larsson
- HB77

I heard that there was a deal in place with St. Louis for one of Hall/Eberle for Shattenkirk, but that he refused to sign an extension

Thanks Hallfan.

The only gm I truly have a hate on for is tambellini.

Liked mact a lot despite some missteps.
Thought Lowe was really solid pre cap.
Hate tambs.
Like pc so far despite questioning a few things.


Maybe I'm an apologist. Dunno
- HB77

I actually thought that Tambo was brought aboard purely to be scapegoated by the organization. Keeping years of garbage hockey and last place finishes from tainting the old boys club. MacT was a great coach and wasn't responsible for tgis team turning into a back alley abortion, but they also couldn't really promote him at the time with fans screaming for his head. Wait a couple years, and accumulate some high draft picks. Then MacT was brought back to be the saviour, make a couple trades, and turn the team into a champion. But it wasn't as easy as they thought it would be, combined with MacT running his mouth too much, and the fanbase wanted the old boys club gone.

Thanks Hallfan.

No, no, as can be seen from your posts basically mirroring his, you are the Hallfan!

It was absolute garbage indeed. The only thing I found remotely interesting was at the end...

Spoiler...




People are debating what the long-limbed creature in the house was. Some thought it was the witch (it wasn't, because the writer said we still haven't seen the Blair Witch) while others think it was Heather lol... I think it was an alien. It resembled the popular belief of what an alien looks like, plus all of those lights that suddenly appeared when they were in the house... Aliens. Also, the fact that the house couldn't be found ordinarily, and the fact that suddenly there was no daylight, everything seemed like it was always in the night... Aliens. I'd say the whole wooded area is like a trap where aliens grab people, bring them to space or whatever and test/torture/kill them.

Lowe did a great job until the end. Your memory is clouded by his POHO press
Conferences.
- Larsson_fan

Before the salary cap he did phenomenal work as GM. We were on the verge of losing our team we had so little money budget for players. Anytime anybody got any good we had to unload them to a team that could pay them their salary demands.

Yeah.

We took out Dallas and Colorado in different seasons.
And that's when they were pretty much dynasty teams. Dallas only won 1 cup, but they were elite for about 3-4 years. The avs were all time for almost a decade.
- HB77

That was the time when the cup was basically getting bought every year, kinda like baseball every year.

Bubba...bubba...bubba...how dare you credit Lowe for the amazing work done by the greatest GM to ever live...GLEN SATHER!!!!!

Not even a contest. Best ever! God do I long for the day of a top 4 D featuring Mironov, Hamrlick, Niinimaa, and GATOR!
