last year i met tie domi and the stanley cup guy


lol

I met the Stanley Cup guy once at the HHOF. I wouldn't want to meet Tie Domi, other than to ask him if he hopes Phonix drafts Kaberle's kid to protect Max from Luke Richardson's son.

I had no idea getting tickets to the draft was such a hot item.
Kind of surprised.

It's one of those "Hey, I've never done that." things.

All my life I wanted to be there for the Cup presentation. I soaked in it when it happened but it was quite the depressing scene for me.

Defense is not in sync with the forwards.
- MJL

i understand. but you guys have options. perhaps try and make a deal if the right one is there. or maybe you do find some quality in what you have developing.

but lord. maybe i read it wrong, but the prevailing mindset behind that post is why bother even having a franchise.

Same. I stayed for it, and it was cool...the circumstances around it just sucked.

They should have a Summer Classic draft to accommodate the fans. Have it at Citizens Bank Park during a Phillies game.

She's usually wrong. I would love to constantly bash her but I have a thing about being mean to women, even ones who come across like her.

Thats chauvinistic. If you really wanted to treat her as an equal, you'd ridicule her abysmal reporting.

It's his thing. The irate, irrational "TRADE EVERYONE BECAUSE THEY AREN'T GRETZKY/LIDSTROM AND SOMEONE ELSE MAY BE" fan.

how come the players you acquired in those deals, along with giroux (who many still regard as the best player in the league) cant eventually put the flyers into the position that the kings were in, and then you can acquire your own fric and frac type guys to put the team over the top?

Detriot seems to do ok drafting later in the round?

- PhillySportsGuy

It's not just her reporting, I follow all the Flyers reporters on facebook and she's just so unbelievably unprofessional that I can't stand it. I understand she's fairly young but I'll never be able to take her as a serious media member. She comes off like a fan girl mascot type.

That being said she does seem like a nice person. Just a nice person I want to bash.

former poster sarahB and i got a great photo with him. he still has the hair but wasn't wearing the gloves.
- -davies-


That's a pretty good gig that dude has. I imagine he has other duties as well. Since he's always wearing the gloves, perhaps he's a proctologist on the side.

I don't think I've ever actually read any of her write ups. Isn't she just humdrum "So-and-so's path to the NHL" kind of filler fluff stuff?

Well I mean I've never been to a draft, and probably will have to wait however many years until one is relatively local.

I thought it'd be pretty cool.

But no.

- Giroux_Is_God

I'm sure you can find a way to go to this

Really it seems possible if you want to

They found a few. It's not like they're finding them every year. They just got on a lucky steak.
