Nope, he's a dinosaur and dumb, only people 35 and under know anything about hockey...

Haha yes, he's not a "progressive thinker". People need to be more like Kyle "won one playoff round in 3 years as a GM in junior" Dubas, that guy's a genius.

He said defensive...not poopty.

Cubs, Leafs, Bengals, Riders, SuperSonics

I'm a Leafs fan but I pity my poor brother (Bolton (who?), Caps and Magic)... zero (frank)ing top level championships in about 190 combined years of operation

It would really be something if the Sonics did.
- Elbows15

The cubs might even be more impressive than the supersonics winning

Relatively good. They'll always find a way to lose, even if it is getting royally screwed by the refs.

That was bad. It was classic faceguarding.

99% of the time it means the same thing.


Brandon Sutter could be available depending on what you'd give the Pens.

Roman Polak is my new favorite Maple Leafs player.

“Because it’s hard work,” Polak said before Wednesday’s 6-2 loss to Washington. “It’s always tough to do something you know you don’t like to do. I think we have lots of guys that just want to play offence.”
- JohnFergusonJr

Damn thats a bold statement from him. He pretty much summed it up that Carlyle was trying to preach as well, not enough backchecking, not enough guys who want to play a complete defensive game and as well as our defenders, too many offensive guys still, where gardiner needs to be traded.

I'm blown away by how a website and tv station like sport net starts saying its great and the people all get sucked in so easily, it's sad really...

Well he does play with Gardner, so if anyone knows he does...

“It’s tough to say,” said Polak. “I don’t know. As a coach, you can do whatever you want, but the guys have to listen too. It’s not just the coach’s fault; it’s the guys, too, because they have to listen and they have to understand what the coach wants from them.

“If they don’t, it doesn’t matter what kind of coach you have.”

You know how I know that analytics is garbage? Because every single idiot who is obsessed with advanced stats has the EXACT SAME opinions on players. They all say the same stuff. Bozak sucks. Kadri is the second coming of Jesus. Gardiner is amazing. etc. etc. There is no difference in their opinions. Why even have scouts, just use computers if the numbers tell you everything.

99% of the time it means the same thing.

We just need a #1 stud who doesn't ignore his defensive responsibilities.

Kadri got caught cheating out to the blue line in hopes of getting sprung on a rush and couldn't get back to check his man who scored. That was a perfect example of what Polak's talking about. Wanting to score/put up points at the expense of preventing goals against.

You didn't hear? We're all dumb. We're all wrong. Gardiner is actually amazing, have you seen his Corsi numbers?? Guys been a stud this season.

Guy has heart and can play Defense. He's not a number 1 defensmen by any means but he gets it done.

There are maybe 10 of those guys in the entire league.

Finally completed the blog, lots of thoughts today.
