Okay I don't where I never acknowledged that he scores a ton of goals in the playoffs. I'm just pointing out he's a liability in 5 on 5 play. There's no getting around that. In the playoffs that will kill you and it has hurt the Flyers, there's nothing irrational about me saying that. Aside from the blackhawks you typically don't see a team that plays so wide open winning many cups these days. Defense trumps offense, maybe that can be debated, but when I look at the Cup winners of late it's hard to say other wise. Even the Penguins learned that the hard way this year.

As for what Bill said, that is one of the very few times I disagree. I'd rather a guy that doesn't give up much 5 on 5 and scores little vs a guy that scores a lot and gives up a lot.

If you read my other posts where I pointed out that perhaps this coaching staff isn't using him properly I'd say that totally debunks your accusation of me being totally Irrational and hating the player. I don't hate him, just he's not my cup of tea when it comes to players. That's a far cry from hatred.

Incorrect. I didn't ask you not to quote my posts. I'd prefer that you do quote my posts if you want to discuss what I've said. Then you'll be accurate. I asked you not to put my name in your posts. Or to attribute comments to me incorrectly, such as "MJL said" Pretty simple request.

You are correct. As a Hockeybuzz guru, you deserve the respect you are requesting. You don't just deserve it, you've earned it.

At least I hope you respect the fact that I thought I was accurately quoting you. If you read my post, I was merely suggesting that if the Flyers D has some struggles moving the puck, players like Briere and Giroux will be helpful. I was almost certain that in the past you had said that with the loss of Carle, passing the puck out of the zone may be a concern. If I misinterpreted, I greatly apologize. Offending a legend is not something I am overly proud of. Not a great day, that is for sure.

I enjoy not just your posts, but all of our friend's posts. As we continue to grow this hockey community, damnit, hockey family, our knowledge, kinship, and love for life shall comtinue to grow. Like any family, there may be some bumps along the way, but we are all better people in the end. God bless you, your family, this site, the sport of hockey, myself, and all our friends and family at Hockeybuzz.
