Again, with the risks in goal. He could stay healthy, but you know that's unlikely to happen. He will probably get his leg cut off in practice.

Touche, I guess i was just thinking that if you're gonna have mediocrity in net, at least have it cheap.

It's just needless. They are basically hoping Mason becomes what Bob was a year ago, but with a worse overall record. Totally needless, and could've been remedied by just holding on to Bob. Now we play the wildcard game again. This organization will never learn.

My opinion I'm just not as sure Bob would be having the same success here. The fan base, media, and expectations are totally different in Columbus then Philly. Of course, we'll never know, but I don't think it is a slam dunk. Mason will have to answer the same questions. Some guys just play better in markets where the lights aren't as bright.

You just pulled a statement out of your behind without verifying. I just MJL'ed you with sources.

No you didn't. You displayed a basic misunderstanding of how exec comp works in blue chip US companies. Steve Jobs had a salary of $1 for the last 14 years of his life.

Woo!!

Yes, and you think the hockey team affects cable TV prices. I just figured you were too stupid to google it. Seemed like a safe bet

You're the moron who pulled misinformation out of his behind and calling anyone else stupid is hypocritical.

Name calling after being exposed. Typical and expected.

it's definitely a blunder, but i don't think they get rid of bob if they know these cba changes are coming. and in the same vein, i don't think this mason deal happens if the league doesn't add the clawback and buyout provisions. there's definitely some egg on their face, but i think the changed circumstances are big factors as well

I can see that reasoning, but that's what led us to Leighton in goal. Which is scary to remember.

Comcast is a publicly traded company. You don't have to be an employee or stockholder to find out about what you claim to know.

I'm simply saying what has been provided to us in employee meetings. I honestly haven't looked at a shareholder report in 6 months.

I just don't understand why he doesn't every play with top 6 wingers ever.
- ravishingone


He gets muscled off the puck easily and when he gets space he often has passes intercepted would be my best two guesses

Until you support your original claim about Bryzgalov's contract driving up cable prices, kindly can it.
