Really he and Tulsky just took what Bill Peters implemented initially and took the safety nets out. They just accept that they're going to give up a bunch of chances against on the rush and live with it because they know that the good is going to vastly outweigh the bad if they just keep pressure up all the time.
- BINGO!

That type of talk isn't allowed on here.

Every post you respond to you go back to talking about Boomers,snowflakes and Nylander(at least you are somewhat relevant). Let it go.

now don't get all sanctimonious ... I sure as heck didn't start the whole generational thing...

I'm glad to see you now find it tiresome as well.

Datsyuk is one of the best players to play in the NHL last 20 years.
You're heavily underestimating him.

But sure - SC are won by teams.
- MaximusAurelius

I'm not underestimating him, but his opinion doesn't count for anything more than Mike Commodore's does.

While not being as physically aggressive, it's the way I think the Leafs should be playing. You've created a mobile team that is all about puck possession. They suck at playing physical, but they are fast enough to create havoc without the puck. Forecheck, cause turnovers, and use that to your advantage.

Granted it doesn't work when your defense is not reading the play and leaving an entire half side of the ice unattended . . .

- BINGO!

So glad to see he learned literally nothing and is killing Calgary's offense the same way he crushed Jeff Skinner and Eric Staal.

Can't wait for the Tree to trade Gaudreau.

exactly..

It's no different than Chelios hating Babs..

Jeff O'Neill said it yesterday on OverDrive, some guys just don't like Babcock, maybe 1 or 2 guys do like him

Not tough enough. Gotta get somebody bigger and stronger. Like Jamie Benn.

Classy guys like Datsyuk, Rielly, Tavares, Hyman like Babcock.

Douchebags like Chelios, Commodore don't like Babcock.

Draw your conclusions.

I'll draw my conclusions that you don't know any of these guys from a hole in the wall and don't know anything about their personalities or 'who' they are.

Not tough enough. Gotta get somebody bigger and stronger. Like Jamie Benn.
- BINGO!

So like a Hyman for Gaudreau trade?

You misspelled Heinen. Easy mistake

Speaking of...

Brind'amour was asked about Babcock firing today.

"At the end of the day I think coaches get way too much credit when things are going well and they take the heat when things don't go well. That's what you sign up for."
- BINGO!

Also why Babcock was paid 6 million a year.

Not tough enough. Gotta get somebody bigger and stronger. Like Jamie Benn.
- BINGO!

Jeff O'Neill is looking pretty big these days.

You are making that up. We don't know if they like him or hate him.

With their fancy fruit-phones and their big headphones and pants around their knees.

Why in my day, we would just sign any contract that the NHL teams would put in front of us - it didn't matter if we had to work summer jobs.

It didn't matter if the head of the NHLPA was stealing from us.

It didn't matter that many of us died broke and homeless, with dementia caused by being punched in the face repeatedly.

We did it because we loved the game!

Now I can't even get a decent bowl of porridge for less than $10 - what's the point in even going to the mall?

And another thing - why can't I still watch Front Page Challenge?

Max drawing conclusions from afar about things he can know very little about? That seems uncharacteristic
