Meh on the Mac passes. I distinctely remember Kuli missing several point blanks that would have been money the year before.

As I said above, check his shooting percentage. It was 6.5%. That's aweful. Year he got 30 it was almost triple that, and his average the previous couple years was 11%, which I believe is closer to the league average.

Ah kk, that makes sense. I guess it's possible towards the end of the season Mac started taking matters into his own hands to score.

Shooting a partridge with a .44 is a bit much
- JIMI-JAMES

a .44? How about a semi-automatic Tech-9?? (easily converted to fully automatic if you know what Google is...)

This is considered a Hand-gun in the US, and subject to the same laws in most states as any other handgun (as in, not many)

Nice friggen deal!

yup. I imagine coaches, and everyone, including Kulemin, started telling Mac and Grabbo to shoot more. Let Kuli crash and maybe he'll Tlusty one off his ass and get some confidence

In Mass you can't have a gun that has the capacity to carry over 8 rounds. It's otherwise deemed an assault rifle, and you have to get a very special permit that is extremely difficult to obtain. Overall, I think Massachusetts is a very good state, when it comes to guns, and most other things.

Agree, disagree?

Domi to play at Winter Classic...Man, I hope he settles some old scores...

You think that's an overpay?

Sam Gagner just signed for $3.2 million, making more than Kulemin
- LeftCoaster

he signed for one year. and he's not coming off a 7-goal season.

- Big_Lightnin

what ever works. For some reason I am not worried at all. I think Kulemin is a star and is going to make that contract laughable. I get the sense that the coaches believe that as well and probably feel secure trying JVR at center with Kulemin holding down the 2nd line wing.

I've been killing people in video games sense I was like 11. You have to already have a screw loose if you think that translates to reality. The blame game is a mighty interesting phenomena. I've thought of if I were put in a situation in which I would have to kill someone, because of self defense, and I would, but still would feel remorse that I had to take someone's life. When I hear of these tragedies I always think to myself, how can you shoot someone just enjoying a summer flick? Like why? You don't even know them (most likely). I don't know the worlds a crazy place, just look at the Norway shooting last summer, where like 78 people were killed. smh

Yup, people need to blame something cause it couldn't possibly be the individuals fault...always need to blame someone or something.

Same thing with parents blaming TV for violence...raise your kid properly and teach the right morals and for the most part things should be fine. Unfortunately there will always be the wacko's who's wires are crossed and need to be under full security/monitoring but the majority of these shootings and crap are depressed angry people who refuse to tell anyone that they need help.

nothin left but feathers

I am. Boston to be specific. Probably one of the better educated areas around.

Still will respectfully disagree. The south is also, just a completely different lifestyle you can't really hold that against them.

Anyway I digress.
- celata29

I agree, it is terrible to generalize any group of people. There are just as many idiots on this side of the border.

It is much easier, and more accurate, to say the guy that did that is a (frank)ing idiot.

ya I'd agree with that. Limited experience there myself but the GF used to travel to the states a ton for work, and Boston/Mass was one of her favs. There or California are the only places I think we could live in the states. Mindset is just too different.

exactly.

the individual is responsible for their own actions.. not some outside influence

he signed for one year. and he's not coming off a 7-goal season.

not 1 year removed from a 30G season either

well, let's not let parents off the hook here.

- Big_Lightnin

true but split the difference and you have Gagner's numbers. im sure if Kulemin signed for one year he's be getting $3 million.

ya I'd agree with that. Limited experience there myself but the GF used to travel to the states a ton for work, and Boston/Mass was one of her favs. There or California are the only places I think we could live in the states. Mindset is just too different.

Only thing with California is its government. That state is in shambles. Mass is generally the precursor for any political movement. First for gay marriage, healthcare, weed is pretty much legal (up to an ounce you get a ticket). It was the second best performing state during the economic crisis, behind Texas, and has saved all the money the government gave it in a rainy day fund. Just overall a great state I feel

That rule about RFAs getting a minimum of 10% more is dumb. Kulemin should have had a pay cut after this dog poop season. Let him come back and prove he can play, then give him his raise.
